SUMMARY:Biomass and Energy Crops VI
DESCRIPTION:Biomass and Energy Crops can provide feedstocks for bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS)\, sustainable aviation fuels (SAF)\, green manufacturing and construction materials. Biomass and Energy Crops are therefore important for not only renewable energy and transport fuels\, but also for the decarbonisation of agriculture and other industries. \nIn response to the urgency of the climate emergency\, biomass and energy crops are becoming an important part of the portfolio of negative emissions technologies\, needed for meeting net zero targets. As a result\, the size of the Biomass and Energy Crop community has significantly expanded in recent years. For example\, in the UK this has been through the Biomass Feedstocks Innovation Programme\, the Greenhouse Gas Removal Demonstrator Programme\, the Supergen Bioenergy Hub and the AI for Net Zero Programme. \nOur objective is to bring together researchers from these communities in the UK along with researchers involved in similar international programmes\, and importantly industrialists and policymakers\, to exchange ideas and foster closer collaboration\, and to thereby ensure that Biomass and Energy Crops can fulfill their potential for people and planet. \nThe conference provides an ideal forum for researchers\, agricultural advisors\, bioenergy industry representatives\, policy makers and research funders\, NGO’s and environmental organisations to meet and discuss the state of the art in Biomass and Energy Crops\, and how these crops can be optimised and sustainably scaled up. \nThis event includes standard talks but also the opportunity to visit energy crop experiments and demonstrations at IBERS including one of the Biomass Connect Hub site demonstrating different energy crops and varieties. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract Submission\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe majority of speakers at this meeting will be selected from submitted abstracts. We encourage delegates to submit an abstract to either present an oral or poster presentation. We especially encourage submissions from early career professionals. AAB offer generous travel grants to support ECP attendance which we hope will encourage abstract submission. EVERSITYveryone who is not selected for an oral presentation will be invited to bring a poster presentation. \nAbstract submission deadline is July 1st 2023.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Safeguarding the World’s Food Supply – An Introduction to the Crop Trust
DESCRIPTION:Join The Global Plant Council for a new webinar with the help of Janny van Beem (Crop Trust global genebank partnership coordinator)\, where we will explore the work done by The Global Crop Diversity Trust (Crop Trust).\n\nCrop Trust is an international organization committed to preserving the world’s crop diversity. As climate change\, population growth\, and environmental challenges threaten food security\, Crop Trust ensures that the genetic diversity of crops remains protected for future generations. During the webinar you’ll learn how Crop Trust supports global seed banks\, including the renowned Svalbard Global Seed Vault\, and how its work contributes to resilient agriculture and sustainable food systems. For plant scientists\, the webinar will highlight opportunities for collaboration in crop conservation and research.\n\n\nTo register: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SgPxBFRVSu-Z5Mj2v1Qq4w

SUMMARY:International Symposium on Arbutus unedo (Strawberry Tree) and Related Species: from Biology to Biotechnology
DESCRIPTION:28-30 October 2024 in Coimbra\, Portugal. \nThis symposium is organized by the University of Coimbra under the aegis of the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS). \nThe Arbutus unedo and related species in the Ericaceae family are of significant importance due to their unique biology and biotechnology applications. These species play an essential role in the ecosystem and have been widely used for medicinal\, ornamental\, and edible purposes. \nThis symposium will provide a platform for scientists to come together and exchange ideas and knowledge on the latest research in the field of Arbutus unedo and related species. The event will feature keynote speakers\, oral and poster presentations\, and networking opportunities to foster collaborations and advance our understanding in this field. In addition\, there will be social events and a field trip to provide attendees with an opportunity to experience the natural beauty of the region and connect with colleagues in a relaxed setting.

SUMMARY:5th AAB PlantEd Congress: Agricultural Biotechnology in the Era of Genome Editing
DESCRIPTION:VISIT EVENT WEBSITE\nPlant genome editing is a topic of enormous scientific and political importance as a potential strategy to mitigate the impact of climate change\, alterations in plant disease patterns and to ensure nutritional security. This is an exciting time for genome editing as more regions across the globe are allowing for the use of new breeding technologies to generate new crop variants. This is noticeable Europe there are political moves toward accepting the use of this technology. Concurrent with slow political processes there have been rapid technological advances in research labs\, where new genome-edited crop varieties are showing promising climate and pathogen resilience. It is now important that these varieties are tested in field trials in order to understand their possible applied impact. This event brings together technology and policy experts to explore how advances in agricultural biotechnology will proceed in the age of genome editing. This is the 5th Congress associated with the ‘PlantEd: Genome Editing in Plants’ project. Between 2019-2023 the COST Action PlantEd brought together experts from across Europe and beyond. These members represented a range of disciplines all with a focus on plant genome editing.  At the end of COST Association-funding PlantEd has transitioned to  become an AAB Specialist Group. This move aims to keep this community of experts together by sharing relevant information and through organisation of conferences and workshops. In collaboration with the Turkish local organising committee\, this event is the first organised by the AAB-PlantEd specialist group. This event will include plenary sessions of talks provided by invited speakers and those selected from submitted abstracts. We will also host a poster session and short tourist trips close to Samsun. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDelegates can register as an in-person or an online delegate. In-person delegates have access to all sessions\, catering and social events. Online delegates will be able to watch the presenters using a zoom link through which they will have the option of asking questions using the chat-box. We offer registrations fees for the following delegate categories: \n1. Early Career Professionals (anyone within 5 years of finishing full-time education): AAB members and Non-Members \n2. Regular Attendees: AAB members and Non-members \n3. Any delegate who studies or works in Turkey or is from an Inclusiveness Target Country : ECP and Regular attendee \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract Submission for Oral or Poster Presentations\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDelegates have the opportunity to submit abstracts for oral or poster presentations. The scientific organisers will review the submitted abstracts and select those delegates who will provide an oral presentations. Any abstracts not selected for an oral presentation will be invited to bring a poster to the meeting. AAB will also publish a Special Issue of Annals of Applied Biology and a issue of Aspects of Applied Biology that will be associated with the meeting. Details can be found here. \nAbstract submission deadline for Oral Presentations is July 15th 2024 \nSubmission deadline for Poster Presentations is August 15th 2024 \nWe will announce the provisional program of oral presentations by August 1st 2024 \nSUBMIT ABSTRACT HERE\n\nConfirmed Invited Speakers\n> Professor Goetz Hensel\, Head of Centre for Plant Genome Engineering Institute of Plant Biochemistry\, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf \n> Dr Sadiye Hayta\, John Innes Centre.
