遗传学是相关专业本科生的核心课程之一。国内大部分高校在遗传学教学中使用普通遗传学教材,但不同专业背景的学生使用普通遗传学教材会产生较大的教学质量差异,特别是蚕学、蜂学、植物保护、动物科学等专业的本科生。虽然普通遗传学教材中有一些昆虫学案例,但没有随着昆虫学发展进行更新,且不能满足昆虫相关专业学生的专业素质培养需求。因此,本文对可应用于遗传学课程的昆虫学案例进行梳理,引入遗传学教学,更替部分普通遗传学教材中的非经典案例,并补充一些普通遗传学教材中使用较少的昆虫发育遗传学、核外遗传学和进化遗传学等案例。建立适用于昆虫学相关专业的遗传学理论体系与实验教学设计,使遗传学教学突出昆虫学相关专业的特色,以期对相关专业的学生学习和教师教学有所帮助。

Genetics is one of the core courses for undergraduates majoring in related disciplines. Most universities use general genetics textbooks in teaching, which will lead to different teaching qualities for students in different majors, especially in sericulture, apiculture, plant protection, and animal science. This is especially true for students majoring in insects. Although there are some entomology cases in general textbooks, they have not been updated with developments in entomology and cannot meet the needs of comprehensive quality training. Therefore, we review entomology cases that can be used in genetics courses, introduce genetics teaching points, offers replacements for some non-classical cases in general genetics textbooks, and supplement several cases of insect developmental genetics, extranuclear genetics, and evolutionary genetics, which are seldom described in general genetics textbooks. We also establish a genetics theoretical system and experimental teaching design for entomology-related majors to highlight the characteristics of entomology- related majors in genetics teaching, aiming to help students and teachers in related majors.
