BOTANY/ENTOM/PLPATH 505

Molecular and ecological aspects of the interactions between plants and microorganisms. Explores many of the themes, from genetic to integrative, of modern biology, and illustrates how study of plant-microbe interactions contributes to understanding of fundamental plant science.

PLPATH 559

Symptoms, epidemiology and control of diseases of crop plants; emphasis on disease diagnosis.

PLPATH 622

Physiology, genetics, taxonomy, and ecology of bacterial pathogens, epiphytes, and symbionts of plants.

BOTANY 100

Major emphasis on the roles of plants and microbes in past and present global ecology, and the past and present uses of plants and microbes by humans, including emerging applications of biotechnology.

PLPATH 602

Environmental factors in the development and spread of diseases, pathogen variability, genetics of disease resistance, and principles of disease control.
