CONTENT

The objective of this course is to understand the plant genome analysis and basic approaches in plant functional genomics underlying forward and reverse genetics, transposon insertion, RNA interference (RNAi) and micro RNA (miRNA), gain of function (activativation tagging) mutagenesis, TILLING (Targeted Induced Local Lession IN Genomes) and fine structure genetics (Modifier screens, Enhancer trap, GAL4 mediated over expression) and methods for trasncriptome analysis (cDNA microarrays, Oligonucleaotide arrays, Rapid Analysis of Gene Expression (RAGE) and Serial analysıs of gene expressıon (SAGE) will also be covered in detail.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • Student will be able to answer the questions regarding basic approaches for genome analysis, forward and reverse genetics tools and small RNAs tools. They will have a deeper understanding fine structure genetics and methods for transcriptome and sequencing analysis.
