Students are familiar with botanical-morphological terminology and its application to describing and determining of seed plants. Students know the most important vascular plant species of the central European flora including their ecological position.Contents:
Comparative morphology and systematics of seed plants and terminological tool box for their determination. 200 important species of the Central European Flora and their ecological position.Methods:
Introductory lecture by the course leader; subsequently, students analyse the main objects using magnifying glases or stereo microscopes (including making scientific schematic drawings), in which endeavour they are supported by the course leadersCosts:
