The College of Education for Pure Sciences organizes a training course on methods for measuring physiological growth indicators in plant samples.
The Department of Life Sciences at the College of Education for Pure Sciences organized a training course entitled “Methods for Measuring Physiological Growth Indicators in Plant Samples.”
The following faculty members presented the course: Dr. Qayoud Thaban Yousef, Dr. Fatima Karim Khudair, and Dr. Ban Abdul Hussein Mohammed Mahdi.
This course aimed to develop students’ academic skills and increase their knowledge by introducing them to the most important plant growth indicators in general, and physiological growth indicators in particular, in the plant samples under study.
The course covered several topics, including an introduction to plant physiological growth and an explanation of the concept of plant growth and development. It also addressed the environmental and genetic factors affecting growth and the study of basic physiological growth indicators, such as measuring length and dry and fresh weight.
The researchers recommended the importance of focusing on such topics to ensure the adoption of accurate physiological measurements as a tool for evaluating plant growth efficiency under different environmental conditions. And integrating modern technologies such as spectroscopy and digital imaging in monitoring growth and physiological changes.
