Re: eamcet agriculture
Feel free I will provide you Engineering Agricultural and Medical Common Entrance Test, Agriculture and Medical exam syllabus so that you can check it easily. Here is the syllabus BOTANY I) INTRODUCTION:- 1.1 Origin, development and scope of Botany 1.2. Classification of plant kingdom 1.3. Branches of Botany: Morphology, Cytology, Embryology, Palynology, Taxonomy, Physiology, Ecology, Palaeobotany, Genetics, Phytogeography, Phycology, Mycology, Lichenology, Bryology, Pteriodology, Microbiology, Bacteriology, Virology 1.4. Parts of angiospermic plant II) EXTERNAL MORPHOLOGY: a) Vegetative morphology: 2.1) Root: Root system; Types, Functions, Modification of roots (Velamen roots, Photosynthetic roots, Respiratory roots, Parasitic roots, Storage roots and nodular roots). 2.2) Stem: characteristics and functions of the stem; Modifications of stem: Aerial: Tendril, Thorn, Hook, Phylloclade, Tuberous stem and Bulbil; Sub-aerial: Runner, Stolon, Sucker & Offset, Underground: Rhizome, Corm, Stem tuber & Bulb 2.3) Leaf: Parts of Leaf, Types and Functions of leaves,Venation, Phyllotaxy, Leaf modifications: - tendrils, spines, scale leaves, phyllode, reproductive & trap leaves. b) Reproductive morphology: 2.4) Inflorescence: Introduction, Types of Inflorescence - Racemose, Cymose and Special Types 2.5) Flower: Parts of a typical flower: Structure, Sex distribution and symmetry of flower, position of gynoecium. Detailed description of flower: Perianth, Calyx, Corolla, aestivation, Androecium – Parts, fixation and dehiscence of anther, length of stamens, union of stamens, Gynoecium – number of carpels, fusion of carples, ovary – number of locules , placentation, types of styles, stigma. III) REPRODUCTION IN ANGIOSPERMS:- 3.1) Introduction – Sporophytic and Gametophytic stages 3.2) Structure of Anther; Microsporogenesis, Structure of a pollen grain and development of male gametophyte 3.3) Ovule – Structure and Types; megasporogenesis - development and structure of embryosac 3.4) Pollination: Types of pollination, self and cross-pollination, contrivances for cross pollination and self pollination, agents of cross pollination. 3.5) Fertilization – Process, Post - fertilization changes; Seed structure (Dicot & Monocot) and seed germination (epigeal, hypogeal & vivipary) 3.6) Fruits: Classification; False fruits and true fruits - Simple fruits (fleshy fruits – berry, pome, pepo, hesperidium,drupe; Dry fruits – dehiscent- legume, septicidal c apsule, septifragal capsule, loculicidal capsule; Indehiscent fruits – caryopsis, cypsela, nut; schizocarpic – lomentum, schizocarp); Aggregate and Multiple fruits IV) PLANT TAXONOMY: 4.1) Introduction – Alpha and Omega taxonomy; Aspects of taxonomy – Identification – Flora, herbaria,botanical gardens (RBG – Kew, IBG – Kolkata, NBG – Lucknow); Nomenclature, Classification – Types, Units and a brief account of Bentham & Hooker’s system.
