Nutrition Plant Biology The Program of Study in plant biology is designed for students who would like to gain a greater understanding of the structure, classification, ecology, function, development, and molecular biology of plants. Two options are offered: (a) botany and (b) plant biotechnology. In Option (a), students are required to take the introductory botany course and a minimum of three other courses from a group including function and development, cell structure and function, structure, classification, evolution, ecology, and molecular biology. Option (b) is primarily for students who wish to specialize in the molecular biology of plants and its agricultural application. It centers on the Molecular Biology and Genetic Engineering of Plants course. In addition students should take at least ten credits of other courses in plants and biotechnology. In addition to plant biology and plant ecology offerings of the biological sciences, students may choose from courses offered by other departments in areas of applied research such as crop science, floriculture and ornamental horticulture, fruit and vegetable sciences, plant breeding, and plant pathology.

We currently study the local cellcell interactions that orient cell divisions and mechanisms by which cells polarize their divisions, but are also interested in understanding how cells integrate local signals with long-range environmental signals to optimize stomatal pattern and density for photosynthetic efficiency and plant growth.

The vertical organization of research in the group allows students to study plants at levels of inquiry ranging from molecules to populations. Although research training is focused primarily on acquiring basic knowledge, the Agricultural Experiment Station on campus allows opportunities for exposure to and participation in research with applied goals. Research in the Plant Biology Graduate Group is divided into four areas: Cell and Developmental Biology Environmental and Integrative Biology , and Systematics and Evolution Biology . In actuality, these groupings serve as guidelines in that the research of many students span two or more of these areas. Fourth, UC Davis has state-of-the-art facilities for research in plant biology that facilitate forefront research in plant biology.
