6 courses with the subject BOTN, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BOTN 210General Botany3
Lecture Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 0 An introduction to the morphology, anatomy, physiology, reproduction, taxonomy, and ecology of higher plants, fungi, and algae, with two (2) hours of lab consisting of observation interpretation of the morphology and structure relating to the function, identification, and adaptation of higher plants, fungi, and algae.
Lecture Hours: 2 Lab Hours: 2 A study of the metabolism of plant growth and morphogenesis with special emphasis on such aspects as plant hormones, tropisms, water relations, circadian rhythms, and phytochrome, as well as on the field characteristics, collection, and identification of vascular plants, with intensive study of selected families and genera.
Lecture Hours: 2 Lab Hours: 2 A study of the taxonomic, morphological, cultural, and physiological characteristics of important groups of heterotrophic microorganisms, such as the spore forming group, the pseudomonades, the staphylococcus- micrococcus group, and the enteric forms, with emphasis on the isolation, characterization, and study of groups of heterotrophic microorganisms.
Lecture Hours: 2 Lab Hours: 2 This course is a graduate level course intended to acquaint the student with recent advances in plant genomics and statistical genomics with applications to agriculture. Principles and methods for constructing genetic maps comprised of molecular and other genetic markers, and methods for mapping genes underlying phenotypically complex traits are studied. Methods of DNA sequencing, physical mapping, genomic libraries construction, and positional cloning are also discussed.
