plant biology
A good overview of plant biology and genetics.
Good course for plant biology Great course!
If someone is looking for a course on Coursera about plant biology, shouldn't look further.
Thoroughly enjoyed the course and improved my understanding of plant biology Thank you Professor David, I loved it, it was great and quite interesting.
I now understand some important basics, but I understand I will need to learn a lot more to fully grasp plant biology, techniques for research and applications.
This was a very interesting and informative course on Plant Biology.
Thank you Professor Chamovitz for another great course on Plant Biology.
This course says "Fundamentals of Plant Biology" and serves the same way.
Please do create many more courses on plant biology - yours is the only one available on Coursera.
This is one of the only plant biology courses on Coursera, and I wish there were more of them.
This course is a great primer on plant biology.
In each of the two courses on plant biology I have taken with him, a highlight is when he shows us his plant biology lab to see up close just how the science we have learned in the course is applied in the lab.
Understanding Plants, Part 2 takes a detailed look at plant biology at the cellular level including a look at how genes affect flowering, understanding cellular energy production and ending with genetic modification.
His passion for plant biology is inspiring.

what a plant knows
For all that are found of plants biology Excellent course I prefered the course "What a plant knows" which was easier for me even if this course is very very interesting.Thank you very much.
I just wish there would be a source to order the book (What a plant knows) to Hungary!
I have already taken the course "What a Plant Knows", also available on Coursera, and I enjoyed it.
I loved the first course by professor Chamovitz, I loved his book "What a plant knows," and I loved this course too!
Each class is presented in a easy way, with short class, avoiding the course to become preachy, and with good classes about plant biotechnology Great follow up to What a Plant Knows.

genetic engineering
The final week looked at the controversial topic of genetic engineering, and provided much to think about.
Would have been interesting to cover more aspects of plant genetic engineering like photosynthetic enhancement and drought resistance along with other vectors.
perfect Wonderful An exellent review of what I studied in 9th grade botany with latest updates on latest genetic engineering methods being used in agriculture.
Now looking for part III Thank you Sir Daniel i think this is very good course and the teacher was excellent through out the course A very interesting course about plants and how they survive and live, with a little bit of genetic engineering.
The genetic engineering lecture was informative and I would urge anyone who has questions about GMO safety to take this course.
Although professor Chamovitz is clearly an authority on the subject and a very good teacher, it surprises me how "naive" he appears to be while dissociating (in week 4) the scientific aspect of genetic engineering of its economical motivations.
About genetic engineering and plant identification It was very informative and helpful!
The lesson on genetic engineering and genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) was backed by science and included interesting case studies.

by professor chamovitz
Another superb lecture by professor Chamovitz.
I loved the first course by professor Chamovitz and I loved this one.
part ii
great follow-up to part II (wish he did more classes!)
Hope to have the opportunity to join Part III as soon as available.
Thanks (and please make a no-holds-barred part III that would go deep into the chemistry/genetics/techniques)!
But I don't know why the "Part II" is not "Part I", because things they explained in "Part II" help to understand things in "Part I".

follow up
I took this course as a follow up to Part 1 and it is equally good.
I hope there will be a follow up course.
so much
Thank you so much for providing this course.
Thank you so much Professor.
for example
For example, in Week 3 content on photosynthesis I was expecting a much more detailed discussion.
For example, Bt Brinjal in India.

It cemented the biology learned in Part 1 and extended to a more detailed look at photosynthesis.
