Outline and Purpose of the Course | By reading international publications on plant molecular biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, and plant physiology, the contents are summarized in a resume, and presented by use of MS PowerPont as a seminar. Upon discusision on the introduced research works, logical thinking and scientific points are learned. Research papers on microorganisms and animals are also covered in terms of common life science works. | ||
Schedule and Contents |
The topics of seminar are: Regulation of gene expression and their physiological functions in plants. Heterogolous expression of foreign genes and plant biotecchnology. Plant sciences contributing to maintain environment, such as metal transport, plant-microbe interactions, symbiosis, etc. Other recent tipics in biology, which are not restricted to plants but cover various organisms. |
