B Sc Course outcome:

Botany is the scientific study of plants. The study of plants is important because they are fundamental part of life on earth, generating food, oxygen, fuel, medicine and fibers that allow other life forms to exist. A graduate student from the botany subject is well aware of plants and their functional role in ecosystems. Some more things graduate botanist knows like: -

·       How plants  convert solar energy into chemical energy

·       All the organism use energy for growth comes only from green plants. They get energy directly or indirectly from plants

·       Green plants are only source of oxygen on earth. So life can’t exist without plants.

·       If the use of energy and oxygen exceeded than its production it will be a disaster on earth

·       Through photosynthesis they absorb carbon dioxide, a waste product generated by most animals and a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming.

·       In modern era sustainable use of plant resources is necessary for survival of humans & animals on earth

·       Plantation is necessary to prevent climate change

·       Plants provide food and shelters. These are economically important

·       A botanist can easily deal with field crop production and soil management with plant knowledge

·       Botanists are well aware of the plant life and their distribution pattern at a particular habitat, so they can easily suggest suitable plant species for that region

·       A botanist is well aware of plant diseases and their methods of control

·       Many of plants or their parts are of medicinal uses. Many of our early medicines come from plant extracts

 

M Sc course outcome:

The study of plants is important because they are fundamental part of life on earth, generating food, oxygen, fuel, medicine and fibers that allow other life forms to exist. A post graduate student from the botany subject is well aware of plants, their life cycle, structure and their functional role in ecosystems. Some more things they know are: -

·       Plant are omnipresent. They are found both in aquatic & terrestrial habitats. Some plants like Bryophytes are amphibian in nature. The evolution of plants has resulted in increasing levels of complexity, from the earliest algal forms, through bryophytes, Lycopods, ferns to the complex   gymnosperms and angiosperms of today. Plants in all of these groups continue to thrive, especially in the environments in which they evolved.

·       There are about 320,000 species of plants, of which the great majority, some 280–290 thousand, produce seeds with or without fruit wall.

·       Only plants can convert solar energy into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis. In this process plant fix atmospheric CO2 in hexose sugar in their green cells. Green cell contain chloroplast which have green pigment Chl a, Chl b. Through photosynthesis they absorb carbon dioxide, a waste product generated by most animals and a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. In photosynthesis O2 evolve so plants are only source of oxygen on earth. So life can’t exist without plants.

·       All the organism use energy for tissue maintenance, growth comes only from green plants. They get energy directly or indirectly from plants. Food Chain & food web exist in ecosystem and plants are producers for all kind of ecosystems.

·       Plants provide food and shelters. These are economically important. Plants produce grainfruit and vegetables and have been domesticated for millennia. Plants have many cultural and other uses, as ornaments, building materials, writing material and, in great variety, they have been the source of medicines and drugs. Many of early medicines come from plant extracts.

·       A post graduate botanist can easily deal with field crop production and soil management with plant knowledge. They know about the phenology of the crop & have methods to increase productions and adaptability through various plant breeding technique.

·       Botanists are well aware of the plant life, their structure, adaptation methods and their distribution pattern at a particular habitat, so they can easily suggest suitable plant species for that region which helps the people for social forestry.

·       They are well aware of plant diseases, their pathogen, symptoms and their methods of control. In this, they educate the farmers about crop rotation & shifting cultivation.

·       Plants are easily available materials to study of chromosomes, tissue culture, genetic engineering etc. By applying plant tissue culture technique, new varieties or species of various economically important plants are prepared. Similarly, transgenic plants are prepared by desired gene transfer with the help of r-DNA technology.

·       Plantation is necessary to prevent climate change. In modern era sustainable use of plant resources is necessary for survival of humans & animals on earth. If the use of energy and oxygen exceeded than its production it will be a disaster on earth.

·       A botanist well aware that how the characters are genetically inherited in plants. With the knowledge of chromosome structure, gene concept they very well known about the disease inherited from one generation to another one.

·       With the knowledge of fossils, fossilization, a botanist can establish the relationship between past and modern life of plants. Fuels is the fossils form of plants.

A post graduate botanist very much familiar with laboratory manuals. They know staining techniques, plant materials section cuttings and working mechanism of various instruments like microscope, microtome, centrifuge, ovens, balance, pH meters, etc.
