Key Syllabus Coverage (Official IGNOU Curriculum)

• Block-1: History and Concept of Taxonomy
  • Evolution of taxonomic classification from pre-Linnaean systems to modern hierarchical systems (Linnaeus, Haeckel, Whittaker).
  • Principles of binomial nomenclature (ICZN, ICBN) and their application in naming organisms.
  • Taxonomic ranks and their significance in biological classification (Kingdom, Phylum, Class, etc.).
• Block-2: Tools and Trends in Taxonomy
  • Modern taxonomic tools: Molecular phylogenetics, DNA barcoding, and bioinformatics in species identification.
  • Role of cladistics and phylogenetic trees in reconstructing evolutionary relationships.
  • Case studies of taxonomic revisions based on genetic and morphological evidence.
• Block-3: Evolution I
  • Darwin’s theory of natural selection and its empirical evidence (e.g., finches, peppered moths).
  • Genetic basis of evolution: Mutations, gene flow, genetic drift, and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
  • Speciation mechanisms: Allopatric, sympatric, and adaptive radiation with examples.
• Block-4: Evolution II
