Focuses on the development and knowledge of host resistance and pathogenic diversity in determining what type of resistance should be deployed and explore factors that may impact future success of new genetically modified techniques.
Prereq: 5603 or 5140; or permission of instructor.
Designed to explore the biology and genetics of fungal microorganisms. Topics include: fungal reproduction for the major clades, molecular underpinnings of growth, development, and interactions with diverse hosts and whole genome based studies of fungi, including proteomic and systems biology analyses. Primarily literature based.
Prereq: 5040.
This course is designed to provide a more in-depth look at the filamentous plant pathogens, fungi, to better prepare graduate students planning on constructing careers in plant pathology. This course will cover the different groups of fungal pathogens with examples, their biology, and their impact in society both historically and currently.
Prereq: 3001 or 6001, or permission of instructor.
This graduate course is intended to prepare students to be able to implement techniques used by nematologists and mycologists in both lab and field settings.
Prereq or concur: 5030 and 5050.
This course is intended to prepare students to be able to implement techniques used by virologists and bacteriologists in both lab and field settings.
Prereq or concur: 5010 and 5020.
