M.Sc Plant Molecular Biology

Master of Science in Plant Molecular Biology

M.Sc (Plant Molecular Biology) or Master of Science in Plant Molecular Biology is a postgraduate Plant Pathology course. Plant Molecular Biology is the application of molecular biology, biochemistry and biophysics to the study of biomolecular structures, functions, and processes specific to plants and plant substances. The Master of Science in Plant Molecular Biology programme focuses on the scientific study of the structure and function of biological macromolecules and the role of molecular constituents and mechanisms in supramolecular assemblies and cells.

The Master of Science in Plant Molecular Biology course includes instruction in such topics as molecular signalling and transduction, regulation of cell growth, enzyme substrates and mechanisms of enzyme action, DNA-protein interaction, and applications to fields such as biotechnology, genetics, cell biology, and physiology.
