Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to teach the basic information about microorganism genetics and to give current developments about this subject and also to discuss the manipulations of microorganisms and their results by using various genetic techniques.
Course Content
Basic knowledge about microorganism genetics is taught. The bacterial and eukaryotic microorganism cell structures are examined and the genetics of bacteria and eukaryotic microorganisms are discussed comparatively. Genetic transfer and mutations are given in detail among bacteria. In particular, information about recombinant DNA technology and genetic manipulations is given based on bacterial genetics. Microorganisms obtained by genetic manipulations in food industry and their applications are given with examples and discussed about genetically modified organisms and their effects on health. Current developments in genetics of microorganisms are given.
