Name: Education kit

ABRC stock number: CS19982

Description: This set of 3 stocks are used in the module "RECONSTRUCTING THE EVOLUTION OF CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI". Students will experience and understand one approach to studying the evolution of development. Students will apply their understanding of nucleic acids, proteins, transcription factors, development, evolutionary selection, and the species concept to a specific problem: the origin of domesticated cauliflower and broccoli. Students will develop an understanding of basic flowering plant morphology. Students will make and test hypotheses about a mutant CAULIFLOWER (CAL) gene using gene sequence information from different Brassica oleracea subspecies. Students will gain bioinformatics skills working with gene and protein sequences from a public database.
