Planet of the Plants: Friends and Foes

Abstract

To survive and flourish worldwide, plants have developed both direct and indirect relationships with other life forms. Which organisms are friendly and beneficial forming symbiosis and which are foes and potentially lethal? Why does mankind need plants? Do they need us? During this course, through student-led research, enquiry, and class discussions lead by small teams, students advanced to a series of individually lead and written assignments. This poster represents a pictorial overview of the individually selected, major-term paper topics of the seminar.
