分子昆虫和植物病理学

课程编码:0710I0D01008H 英文名称:Molecular Entomology and Plant Pathology 课时:51 学分:3.00 课程属性:一级学科核心课 主讲教师:李向东等

教学目的要求
This course will cover the basis of modern agriculture biotechnology, molecular entomology and plant pathology. In the first part, we will explain the importance of insect science and its impact on agriculture, forest, and human health. We will also discuss several important aspects of molecular insect such as metabolism, endocrinology, immunity, locomotors system etc. The basic knowledge of insect physiology, molecular biology, and biochemistry, which were used to study entomology, will be provided during the class. The second part of the course will give students the general view of the history and development of plant pathology. Particularly, the concepts of plant innate immunity and plant epidemiology will be introduced and emphasized, including PAMPs triggered immunity, effector triggered immunity and basal defense of plants. In addition, plant pathogen isolation and identification and plant protection will be discussed in the course.
