园艺哲学博士-植物育种与遗传学

俄勒冈州立大学的植物育种和遗传学（PBG）研究生课程体现了土地授予的使命，即在品种开发和基础遗传学的背景下进行综合研究，教学和推广。植物育种是一门协作学科，涵盖了从经典的田间研究到分子水平的基因操作等所有领域。育种者定期与病理学家，昆虫学家，土壤科学家，生理学家，食品科学家，基因组学家，分子生物学家以及其他领域的专家合作。植物育种和遗传学研究生选修课程的学生将通过学习多种学科的课程来学习跨学科的方法来应用植物育种。该选项可以根据学生的职业目标进行量身定制，包括进一步的研究生学习以及直接进入公共或私营部门的
The Plant Breeding and Genetics (PBG) graduate option at Oregon State University embodies the Land Grant mission of integrated research, teaching and extension in the context of cultivar development and fundamental genetics. Plant breeding is a collaborative discipline spanning everything from classical field approaches to gene manipulation at the molecular level. Breeders regularly cooperate with pathologists, entomologists, soil scientists, physiologists, food scientists, genomicists, molecular biologists and experts in other fields. Students in the Plant Breeding and Genetics graduate option will learn an interdisciplinary approach to applied plant breeding by taking courses across a broad spectrum of disciplines. The option may be tailored to meet students? career goals including further graduate study, as well as direct entry into public or private sector breeding programs. After completing the degree, students will have the fundamental knowledge of plant breeding that may be applied to a range of crops including annual and perennial horticultural crops, agronomic food and feed crops, and forestry products.
