HORT 6252
Advanced Postharvest Biology: Plant Senescence

Course information provided by the 2014-2015 Catalog.

Introduces molecular, genetics, and genomics approaches in plant senescence and postharvest research. Topics include gene expression, regulation, and function associated with physiological and biochemical changes in senescing, maturing, and/or ripening plants or parts. Genetic manipulation of senescence/ripening processes are also discussed.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: HORT 4250 or permission of instructor.

Outcomes

  • Able to review current research and development in plant senescence. The emphasis will be on the molecular aspects of senescence although the physiology, biochemistry, cell biology, ecology, and the evolution of senescence.

When Offered Spring.
