Seminar in Plant Breeding
Agron/Hort/Gen 957
Fall 2003
|
|
The seminar this semester will be moderated by John Doebley
and Tony Bleecker.
The class will meet at 3:30 on Fridays in room 108 Plant Science Building.
Our topic will be "Plant Development". The format will be for the students to
select a research article within one of the designated topical areas to present to
the class. The speaker should also read several additional articles, especially
reviews, on that topic. The presentation should be 30 minutes including ~10 minutes
of general background information and ~20 minutes dedicated to the specific research
article that is being presented.
