Theme: “Plant Systems Biology: integrating scales and time” A remarkable characteristic of plants, defining part of their own existence, is the modular structure of their bodies. A module can be considered as a biological entity (an individual, a structure, a process,...

The Global Plant Council and Frontiers in Plant Science have come together to organize a webinar entitled, "Memories of Pathogen Encounters: Defense Priming and Epigenetic Regulation". Nicolás Cecchini (Universidad Nacional de Córdoba), winner of the Global Plant Council Prize 2021,...

Symposium overview The creation of novel organs, the formation of diverse shapes and patterns within tissues or the ability of cells to deploy different responses to environmental cues all rely on the assembly, rewiring and co-option of gene regulatory networks....

ComBio2022 to be held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC). ComBio2022 will be held in a spectacular arm of MCEC that is adjacent to the Yarra River and walking distance from numerous restaurants and cafes serving the widest...

The AAB-organised ‘International Advances in Plant Virology (IAPV)‘ conference occurs every 18 months as an important gathering for the plant virology community. IAPV2022 will take place as a hybrid event on 5th-7th October 2022 hosted in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Visit event...

Save the date for the upcoming 4th International Conference on Plant Biology (23rd SPPS Meeting) organized by the Serbian Society of Plant Physiology! The conference will be held in Belgrade, from 6th to 8th October 2022. During the upcoming meeting,...

Forests are a critical carbon sink and widespread tree mortality resulting from climate-induced drought stress has the potential to alter forests from a carbon sink to a source, causing a positive feedback on climate change. Process-based vegetation models aim to...

Forest ecology traditionally focuses on plant growth and survival, leaving seed production as a major demographic process lacking a framework for how it will be affected by global change. Understanding plant reproductive responses to changing climate is complicated by masting,...

International conference organised by AAB.  Every two-years AAB will bring together applied biologists to explore how aspects of applied biology can be used to tackle major global challenges. The focus for this 2022 event will explore how scientific discoveries can...

2022 ASA, CSSA, SSSA International Annual Meeting Communication and Public Engagement for Healthy People and a Healthy Planet November 6-9 | Baltimore, Maryland and Limited Virtual Attend and help create solutions to advance science. The American Society of Agronomy, the...

Canopy gaps and the processes that generate them play an integral role in shaping the structure and dynamics of forests. However, it is only with recent advances in remote sensing technologies such as airborne laser scanning that studying canopy gaps...

Machine learning (ML) encompasses statistical methods that learn to identify patterns in complex datasets. Here, Jana reviews application areas in plant–pathogen interactions that have recently benefited from ML. She provides an under-the-hood glance into her developed suite of ML-based tools...

In 2023, the 64th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists (Sendai Annual Meeting) will be held as an in-person meeting. The previous three meetings, in Osaka, Matsue, and Tsukuba, could not be held in person, so if...

The Anthromes, CO2, and Terrestrial Carbon meeting seeks to explore the inter-relationship of CO2-fertilization, people, and land ecosystems through the lens of terrestrial carbon source-sink dynamics during the deep past, through major cultural transitions, and in the net-zero motivated near-future....

Plants are the basis of human society -food, feed, fiber, fuel, medicine-; our life depends on plants in a myriad of ways and addressing pressing current and future societal challenges (the ever increasing demand on agricultural products and natural resources...

The current global challenges of the climate crisis require to quickly adapt our agricultural and livestock production systems to become environmentally and economically sustainable. Technological advances in sequencing and phenotyping and the development of new computational and statistical tools provide...
