Agriculture and Agronomy聽(AGR):聽Application of the various soil and plant sciences to soil management and agricultural and horticultural crop production. Includes biological and chemical controls of pests, hydroponics, fertilizers and supplements.
贰肠辞濒辞驳测听(贰颁翱):聽The study of interactions and relationships among plants, and plants and animals, with their environment.
Genetics and Breeding聽(GEN):聽The study of organismic and population genetics of plants. The application of plant genetics and biotechnology to crop improvement.聽This includes genetically modified crops.
Growth and Development聽(DEV):聽The study of a plant from earliest stages through germination and into later life. This includes cellular and molecular aspects of development and environmental effects, natural or manmade, on development and growth.
笔补迟丑辞濒辞驳测听(笔础罢):听The study of plant disease states, and their causes, processes, and consequences. This includes effects of parasites or disease-causing microbes.
Plant Physiology聽(PHY):聽The study of functions in plants and plant cells. This includes cellular mechanisms such as photosynthesis and transpiration, and how plant processes are affected by environmental factors or natural variations.
Systematics and Evolution聽(SYS):聽The study of classification of organisms and their evolutionary relationships. This includes morphological, biochemical, genetic, and modeled systems.
翱迟丑别谤听(翱罢贬):听Studies that cannot be assigned to one of the above subcategories. If the project involves multiple subcategories, the principal subcategory should be chosen instead of Other.
