With the rapid development of life sciences,molecular biology has become increasingly important in the teaching of agronomy majors. This paper comprehensively analyzes and evaluates the current situation of molecular biology courses for agricul-tural majors in colleges and universities through consulting materials,and further discusses the necessity and implementation paths of teaching reform. This paper emphasizes that experimental teaching is the key to optimizing molecular biology teaching. By intro-ducing molecular biology technologies directly related to agricultural production into teaching and experimental courses,such as PCR amplification and cloning of genes,protein expression and purification,CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology,crop genetic transfor-mation and tissue culture and other technologies,students' scientific research interest and hands-on ability can be significantly en-hanced. At the same time,we should also use network informatization to build virtual laboratories,and open interactive links such as flipped classes and group discussions to strengthen the teaching model that combines theory and practice. It is suggested that in the future,teaching reform should be continued to be deepened,more cutting-edge technologies should be introduced,and interna-tionally competitive molecular biology research talents for agronomy students.
