Course Goal

The aim of this course is to teach the current biotechnological developments in field crops.

Course Content

In this course, new applications related to different fields of plant biotechnology (tissue culture, techniques, molecular techniques and genetic engineering techniques) in field crops, which are basically examined under three groups as cereals, industrial plants and forage crops, will be explained based on current literature.
