(objectives)
1) Knowledge and insight
Students will be provided with information to understand the biology and phenology of tree plants, as well as hints of their physiology and peculiarities in order to achieve quality production, eco-physiological adaptation in urban-rural environments, and environmental sustainability in green design.
2)Applying knowledge and understanding;
The knowledge acquired and the experience gained through practice and attendance of lectures will enable students to penetrate the topics; through analysis, and by exercising critical methodology to understand the problems in the field and to put forward hypotheses for overcoming them, as well as to formulate innovative use hypotheses, with originality and multidisciplinary approaches (ecophysiology, plant physiology, arboriculture and cultivation of tree plants), in the use of tree plants.
3)Making judgements;
The understanding of the issues, their framing in environmental and agronomic processes, and the generation of hypotheses for applications will strengthen the student's ability to synthesize and integrate knowledge and enable him/her to generate judgements anchored in reality and advance hypotheses to acquire new information with scientific rigor.
4)Communication skills;
The set of experiences conducted will enable the student to expose his knowledge, reflections and conjectures to a wide audience, enriched by extensive knowledge of cultivation, scientific literature and methodologies and with the necessary robustness, as a result of a solid training that will enable him to generate original conclusions. The student will thus be able to address a specialized audience and clearly disseminate knowledge to a broad public.
4) Learning skills;
Through classroom lectures, exercises and study visits, the student will acquire the tools for in-depth independent knowledge and independent thinking

(syllabus)
The tree as a complex biological system which integrates organs and functions, with properties to adapt to the ambient. Organography of tree and cultivated fruit crop species. The correlative relationships among organs and development of the tree's epigeal organs and growth patterns. Natural skeleton and architecture of canopy of tree crop plants, determinism of form and size. The role of anthropic actions on fruit culture and evolution of forms of cultivated canopies. Physiognomy and development of root systems.
Physiological and genetic regulation of flowering: factors controlling flower morphogenesis and fruit set. Sterility and self-incompatibility in fruit tree plants. Fruit development and ripening: growth patterns, biochemical dynamic of fruit components. Fruit quality characteristics of different species; ripening indexes and evaluation methods of quality parameters.
Fruit tree crop canopies managements: pruning and tilling techniques for controlling fruit development and ripening.
Physiological and genetic molecular bases and techniques of adventitious rooting and agamic fruit crop propagation. Organization of nursery and control of true-to-type identity and sanity.
Plant and environment interaction. The concept of environmental vocation and suitability and hints of eco-physiology (role of environmental factors in the development of the tree). The use of environmental resources in the cultivation technique (water, fertility elements, light). Soil management techniques. Fruit quality and the influence of terroir. Conventional and sustainable production models. The orchard system, training management and functional diversity. Multifunctionality of tree production systems.
During the lecture will be provide examples that will cover phenotypic behaviour in the cultivation systems of the main tree crops, including some tree species of forestry, ornamental and fruit-growing interest. In addition, botanical and biological peculiarities will be briefly considered for the main species, in order to give students, the tool for species recognition.
