| Course Title: | Genome Analysis and Comparative Genomics |
Course
Description: | The concepts behind genetic mapping, genome analyses and
comparative genomics in plants that help students understand
the relationships between genomes at the structural and
functional level. |
| Oasis Title: | GENOME ANALYSES |
| Prerequisite: | GENE(BIOL) 3200 |
Semester Course
Offered: | Offered spring semester every even-numbered year. |
| Grading System: | A-F (Traditional) |
|
| Course Objectives: | This course introduces graduate students to the methodologies
used in genetic mapping, genome analysis and comparative
genomics. By the end of the course, students should be able to:
(1) Construct a genetic map
(2) Conduct comparative analyses
(3) Be conversant about the cutting-edge technologies that exist
in genome analysis
(4) Be able to apply the concepts taught in the course in a
laboratory environment. |
