The APB covers multidisciplinary aspects of green biotechnology. Students will acquire knowledge about transgenic crops in the world, processes to generate transgenic plants as well as strategies to engineer plants resistant to biotic and abiotic stresses. Development of new tools for plant biotechnology will be performed in the lab. Social aspects of green biotechnology will also be presented.

Cell biology of plants and animals
Zellbiologie der Tiere und Pflanzen
Basic knowledge of general and specific features and function of cells in animal and plant. Focus in the animal system are the following: cytoskeleton, muscle cells, immune system, the control of the cell cycle, and tumor development. In the plant system the focus will be on compartmentalization, cell wall, vacuole and plastid and their biogenesis.
Experimental Biology I
Experimentelle Biologie I
Laboratory course with advanced experiments in the plant sciences, biochemistry, and structural biology.
The course provides basic knowledge in light and electron microscopy, as well as important applications of different methodical approaches in microscopy down to the molecular level. The students will be able to incorporate these techniques into their experimental planning e.g. for Master theses, also to understand and judge new developments in this field from the literature.
Molecular Biology
Molekularbiologie
Topics include:(i) Processes responsible for stability and variability of genomes and for the control of gene activities, particularly in eukaryotes. (ii) Modern techniques for the analysis of such processes. (iii) Practical applications in basic science, breeding, gene technology, and diagnostics.
The plant specific topics in cell biology: vacuoles, cell wall, plasmodesmata and plastids will be discussed with respect to their function in the cormus and its physiology, during differentiation and development. An update with the recent literature will presented. Students will learn how to acquire literature and judge about papers in order to become independent researchers.
