PLSCI 6831
Concepts and Techniques in Plant Biology

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2024-2025. Courses of Study 2024-2025 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

This course is the first of a two-semester sequence (with PLSCI 6841) which together provide a broad overview of concepts related to the study of plant molecular biology. It is intended to bring first-year graduate students in plant molecular biology to a common background in genetics, biochemistry and phylogenetics.

When Offered Fall.

Permission Note Open to: upper-level students in plant biology and plant sciences.

Outcomes
  • Identify and describe key research areas related to plant molecular biology.
  • Explain, give relevant examples of, and make predictions using fundamental concepts of biochemistry, genetics and phylogeny.
  • Integrate these same concepts into their understanding and interpretation of experimental techniques and interpretation of results.
  • Articulate how experimental techniques constrain interpretation of experimental data.
  • Evaluate current literature.
