[An attempt at reforming genetics experiment for undergraduate course].
The four comprehensive experiments were concreted from a series of verifying genetics experiments, which are relatively specific. They were divided into four pieces of experiment modules: Drosophila melanogaster's classical comprehensive genetics experiment, Bio-Cytogenetics comprehensive experiment, Molecular Genetics comprehensive experiment and Population genetics experiment. The first three are major courses and the last one is a selective course. All of these four require experiment modules. These experiments should be comprehensive, designable and innovative. The lab should open to students the whole day in order to improve students' interest and skill in experiment. The ability to design and innovate experiment could be developed through the training.
