Annotation -
The lecture gives a survey of plant biotechnologies based on current knowledge in plant cell biology and mechanisms controlling behaviour of cells and cellular complexes (tissues, organs, embryos) both in vivo and in vitro. Further, it deals with interactions between plants and microorganisms as well as cellular and molecular mechanisms of stresses effect on plant organisms. It includes characteristics of cellular division, differentiation and ontogenesis in in vitro plant cultures; programmed cell death and senescence are discussed. The methods, contemporary results, profits and risks of modern molecular approaches, including GMO construction and use are discussed.
