Principles Of Heredity Ecological Genetics

AY2023/2024 Semester 2

In this course, you will understand the genetic inheritance which is the transmission of genetic information across molecules, cells, and individuals. You will develop the concepts through studying basic molecular biology and genetics to understand the principles of each level of transmission: first, how to transmit genetic information across molecules in cells, from DNA to RNA, and from RNA to protein, second, how to transmit them between cells, third, how to transmit them between individuals, which is the transmission between generations and eventually populations. You will learn not only classical genetics but also the most advanced techniques to generate and analyze the genomic data since the current genomics became to be significantly important to study ecological genetics. Finally, you will have opportunities to develop your idea on how to apply genetics to ecology through the last part of lectures.
