This unit aims to provide a clear, comprehensive, rigorous introduction to genetics and genome analysis. It provides an introduction to the fundamental concepts responsible for diversity of form, function and life responses found in all biological organisms. The principles of Mendelian, population, quantitative, cyto- and molecular genetics are considered, together with the implications they have for advancing understanding of human disease, plant/animal/microbe interactions, plant/animal/microbe physiology and metabolism. -- Course Website
