Classes

  • Pls664 - Plant Breeding I; Credits - 3
    The application of advanced genetic principles to plant improvement. An in-depth study of existing plant breeding procedures and their applications and consideration of new techniques that can be applied to plant breeding and crop improvement. Prereq: STA 570 or consent of instructor. .
    Instructors: David A. Van_Sanford
  • Pls676 - Quantitative Inheritance in Plant Populations; Credits - 3
    After a brief review of population genetics theory, the course is divided into two sections which cover methods of estimating genetic variances and selection methods in population improvement. The course will focus on handling and interpretation of actual data sets through data analysis and discussion of current literature. Prereq: STA 570, STA 671, and STA 672. (Same as STA 676.) .
