| Kursus resumé | This course aims at communicating advanced knowledge and skills of modern molecular genetic methods and the corresponding statistical techniques in applied plant genetics. We will work with different kinds of DNA markers, consctruction of genetic linkage maps and analysis of genetic diversity in cutivated plants and in natural populations as well as adaptation of plant traits to traditional and new usage profiles. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| The participants will have two weeks (two times 5 days) of a full-day mixture of theoretical introductions and laboratory work. The main emphasis is on practical experience, the theoretical background targets towards the understanding of the basis of the techniques to enable troubleshooting and the application in the participant's projects. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
