    Course Description: This 10-week online course is designed for students who have taken Bio14 and/or Bio15 (or have permission of the instructor) and are interested in learning the fundamentals of plant biology. The course is intended for students who are familiar with central dogma, structure-function relationship and genetic inheritance, but have not yet applied those concepts in plant systems. We will adopt a molecular and chemical approach as we explore various concepts in plant biology including plant metabolism, structure-function, development, genetics, pathology and taxonomy.
