This is my story of the development of a high school level Microbiology class specifically targeted to Health Science and STEM students at Hardin Valley Academy in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Growing Plant Pathogens
This morning I finally got around to making transfers of the plant pathogens I brought with me from my summer research in the Plant Path Lab onto water agar plates. I didn't have my lab notebook with me when I did it, so I think I remembered that we transferred them onto water agar, but I'm not sure. I'll look in my lab notebook from this summer to find out. Anyway, I put them in the incubator at 37 degrees C to grow for a couple of days. I did not transfer the Bipolaris because of the risk of disease transmission. The next time I run the autoclave, I need to kill that and get rid of those cultures.
