Learning objectives
The advent of next-generation sequencing and its more recent evolutions made genome analysis accessible for all organisms, from the simplest prokaryotes to the more complex ones of agrifood-relevant plants. Genome sequencing is no longer the target but the starting point, a fundamental tool for breeding programs, the study of characters and the biotechnological manipulation. The course will provide the knowledge necessary to interpret and plan the analysis of genomes and their regulation. The course will describe the structure and function of eukaryotic, prokaryotic and viral genomes, with particular emphasis on organisms and microorganisms of interest for agri-food biotechnology. Genome structure, gene composition, features of non-coding portions and repeated regions will be analyzed. Moreover, the course will describe how genomes evolve, the analysis and the comparison of genomes in a population and the concept of pan-genome in plants. Part of the course will focus on the analysis of epigenome and its importance in the regulation of genome expression, with theoretical and methodological notions for the study of chromatin, DNA methylation and histone modifications. Finally, published case studies of plant genomes that represent reference examples will be analyzed.

Attendance
As stated in the Teaching Regulations for the A.Y. 2022/2023, attendance is not mandatory. However, professors may require students to attend lectures for a minimum of hours in order to be able to take the module exam, in which case the methods that will be used to check attendance will be explained at the beginning of the module.
