課程概述 |
地球上決大部分生物的生理途徑會因地球自轉造成的環境節律而有~24小時的「晝夜節律 (Circadian rhythm)」，晝夜節律由生物體內的生理時鐘所調控並與環境適應息息相關。本課程將以植物的晝夜節律相關研究領域為主，安排相關文獻範疇，藉由教師指定與學生自行選擇適合口頭報告之研究文獻，由學生輪流報告及授課教師導讀。文獻研讀範疇包括：
1. 晝夜節律主要訊息「光」的接收與傳遞
2. 「生理時鐘 (circadian clock)」相關基因調控機制
3. 晝夜節律與生理功能：植物生理範疇包含生長與發育、開花、環境逆境等研究領域之文獻
4. 晝夜節律之「反饋調控迴圈（regulatory feedback loops）」機制
期中與期末將由教師回顧所報告文獻，並針對同學報告與互動情形作綜合分析與評量。
Most organisms on the earth perceive external cycling of daily changes like light-dark exposure or temperature fluctuation for internal responses and increase their fitness in the environment. Such internal responses appearing rhythmically between a period of one full day ~24h, are called "circadian rhythm". the circadian rhythmicity of plants also functions as a clock for plants to anticipate daily changes of the surrounding environments and is involved in regulators of multiple biological pathways. The students will pick or be assigned literatures for his/her presentation about plant research including "signal input of circadian rhythm", "gene regulation of plant circadian clock", "signal output of circadian rhythm", or "regulatory feedback loops". |
|
課程目標 |
學生可經由文獻研讀掌握晝夜節律學門基礎，並藉由研究領域最新研究動態，學習相關研究方法與實驗設計，並能藉由提問與討論培養研究邏輯與評斷的基礎。
Students will know the new studies about the plant circadian clock, learn the scientific logic of experiment designation, research methods, and thinking via the article reading, presentation, and discussion. |
|
課程要求 |
1. 修課同學應預習指定閱讀所列之回顧文獻。
2. 同學報告之文獻須於報告前二週與指導老師討論是否適切，並於報告前一週公佈予其他修課同學，修課同學皆須熟讀各週選讀之文獻。
1. Students read the listed review articles in "Assigned Readings" first.
2. Students will survey the literatures and pick up the article with the instructor two weeks before his/her presentation. All students will need to discuss and comment on the chosen article during the discussion. |
