Course Description 後基因體世代提供充足之分子基因訊息,充分了解基因功能、調節機制、基因產物所引起之基本生化及生理反應等原理,並結合生物技術的方法,以探討參與生物生長、發育、逆境反應與代謝過程中所有相關基因群的表現、調控及其功能。可進而應用於作物在質及量上的改良、分子農場之應用等。
The post-genome generation provides sufficient molecular gene information, fully understands the gene function, regulatory mechanism, and basic biochemical and physiological reactions caused by gene products, and combines biotechnology methods to explore the participation in organism growth, regulation and function of all relevant gene family in development, stress response and metabolism. It can be further applied to the improvement of crop quality and quantity, and the application of molecular farming.
