BI 421 Plant Biology Lab (Spring: 2)

This laboratory introduces students to original research in plant biology. Students will learn ecological experimental design and the application of statistical analysis in plant research. Research will include the use of the scientific literature, online databases and the generation of publication quality data. Specific topics will focus on the role of plant defense in community structure specifically in multi-trophic interactions. Students will be expected to generate a paper and poster presentation on their work and be able to discuss their research with peers. This course is recommended for students who are interested in pursuing advanced research.
