MOLECULAR BASIS OF PLANT-PATHOGEN INTERACTIONS

Catalog description

Explores the molecular, biochemical, and cellular level processes that mediate interactions between plants and pathogens, with an emphasis on the plant host responses to pathogens. Course topics include but are not limited to: recognition and signaling, gene expression and metabolic changes during interactions, resistance mechanisms (host and non-host), pathogen effectors, influence of abiotic stress on plant-pathogen interactions.
