Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course offers an overview of plant genome structure and evolution. Plant genome structure (types of coding and non-coding DNA sequences that contribute to the genome function and evolution; mechanisms of their change) as well as main chromosomal landmarks (telomeres, centromeres, NORs) will be discussed. All these features will be compared with genomic features and evolutionary trends of other organisms (animals, including humans, insects etc.). The newest methods recently developed to analyze genome composition and function including methods to characterize the coding and repetitive DNA fractions (e.g., high-throughput sequencing) will also be introduced. The course will also introduce types and consequences of various genomic changes including polyploidy and more subtle chromosomal rearrangements as well as dynamics of mobile genetic elements in the genome, and discuss these in the comparative phylogenetic context. The course also offers a few hours of practical chromosome handling: analyses of meiotic chromosome pairing and karyotypic landmarks (including localization of various types of DNA sequences in the chromosomes by FISH - demonstration).

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
To present and discuss in details the structure, types, and function of chromosomes, discuss genome structure and emphasize their role in evolutionary processes.
To introduce most important cytogenetic and genomic tools including state of the art next generation sequencing, and demonstrate how they can be used to infer genome evolution in comparative context in plants.
