課程概述 |
*The course will be conducted online on Webex for the first three weeks. Please find the link in the Announcements section of the COOL site of this course.
This is an introductory course on the diversity of eukaryotes in different aspects — from genomes to ecological interactions. Major topics include evolutionary relationships and history, cell structures and functions, and importance for various ecosystems and humanity. More emphasis is put on eukaryotes less covered in other courses — namely protists (algae and non-photosynthetic microbial eukaryotes) — which occur in oceans, soils, lakes, animal guts and many other environments.
In the 2021 Fall Semester, the course is divided into 16 weeks, including two exams (weeks 8 and 16), student presentations (week 14), one national holiday (week 15), and 12 lectures. |

課程目標 |
To acquire a basic understanding of:
1. Evolutionary origin, history and diversity of eukaryotes and their genomes, organelles, biochemistry, cells, and organismic biology (Part I: Week 3–7)
2. Major eukaryotic lineages and important eukaryotic microbes (Part II: Week 9–12, 14, written assignment and oral presentation)
3. Relationships between eukaryotic microbes and Earth, ecosystems, humans, and other microbes (Part III: Week 13 (and 9–12) + assigned readings) |
