Main themes Expose and integrate the mendelian and molecular approaches of genetics. Describe the genome by cartography, both genetically and physically. Linking genetics with biochemistry through describing the regulating mechanisms and introducing development genetics. Introduction of the notion of quantitative trait for selection applications. Presenting the applications in classical agronomy and biotechnology. In Module B, The genetic variety will be defined and integrated in a conservation perspective. A particular attention will be set on the estimation of genetic variety by means of molecular markers.
Aims This course aims to integrate notions of molecular and cellular biology as of biochemistry in the context of heredity. Module A (45h) presents the complexity of the gene as a concept, considered both as an information unit and as a molecular object. Module B (15h) aims the acquisition of the molecular (molecular markers) and conceptual tools for the study of genetic diversity.
Other information The module A (45 hours) is taken by all the students of BIR13; the module B (15 hours) is followed only by the students BIRA and BIRE 13.
