生物信息学浪潮下动植物检疫专业教学策略研究

Teaching strategies for animal and plant quarantine under the wave of bioinformatics

生物信息学快速崛起,高通量测序、生物大数据、专业数据库和多维组学等生物信息学技术日渐普及,该学科与医药、生物和农学等生命类学科正深度交叉融合。实践中,少数农林院校开设的动植物检疫专业的本科生人才培养体系中有专业针对性的生物信息学基础课程尚待完善,部分现有的课程设置已不完全符合未来信息化背景下专业人才培养的要求。本文分析了动植物检疫专业教学与生物信息学交叉融合程度有待提升的原因,从重要性认识提升、课程体系更新、师资力量建设及教学案例建设4个方面进行教学改革实践。

The rapid rise of bioinformatics had led to the increasing popularity of bioinformatics technologies such as high-throughput sequencing,biological big data,professional databases,and multi-dimensional omics.This discipline was deeply integrated with life sciences such as medicine,biology,and agriculture.In practice,few agricultural and forestry colleges had established undergraduate talent training systems for animal and plant quarantine majors,and there was still room for improvement in the specialized bioinformatics basic courses.Some existing course offerings were no longer fully in line with the requirements of professional talent training in the future information technology background.This article analyzed the reasons for the lack of cross integration between animal and plant quarantine teaching and bioinformatics,and proposes teaching reform suggestions from four aspects,including improving importance awareness,updating curriculum system,building teacher resources,and constructing teaching cases.
