Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic analysis of Neurospora crassa knockout (KO) mutants was used as a vehicle to introduce students to laboratory research. The availability of gene deletion strains was the impetus for the development of a program designed to introduce beginning science students to basic microbiology, genetics, microscopy and beginning bioinformatics. The goal was to provide a research experience, acquire laboratory...
