More about this course
  • The past 15 years have been exciting ones in plant biology Hundreds of plant genomes have been sequenced, RNA-seq has enabled transcriptome-wide expression profiling, and a proliferation of "-seq"-based methods has permitted protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions to be determined cheaply and in a high-throughput manner
  • These data sets in turn allow us to generate hypotheses at the click of a mouse or tap of a finger
  • The specialization introduces core bioinformatic competencies and resources, such as NCBI's Genbank, Blast, multiple sequence alignments, phylogenetics in Bioinformatic Methods I, followed by protein-protein interaction, structural bioinformatics and RNA-seq analysis in Bioinformatic Methods II
  • In Plant Bioinformatics students cover 33 plant-specific online tools from genome browsers to transcriptomic data mining to promoter/network analyses and others
