Join us at Asilomar Conference Grounds for the 30th Fungal Genetics Conference. The conference brings together researchers working on all aspects of fungal genetics and encourages communication and collaboration between those interested in genomics, gene regulation, cell biology and development, evolutionary biology, fungal-host interactions, and biotechnology. The conference will open on Tuesday evening, March 12 with a Welcome Reception from 8:00 p.m. – 10:30 p.m. and ends on Sunday, March 17. Be sure to submit an abstract by December 5, 2018 to be included in the concurrent and poster sessions at this important meeting. You will have the opportunity to present your research and get feedback from a broad audience of scientists working at the cutting edge of fungal biology. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Fungal Genetics Conference is the premier meeting for the international community of fungal geneticists. The conference features cutting-edge research spanning a diverse array of topics, including comparative and functional genomics, gene regulation, cell biology, biochemistry and metabolism, population and evolutionary genetics, host-pathogen interactions, genetics education, and more. In addition to the Perkins/Metzenberg Lecture, the 2022 meeting will feature an Equity and Inclusion Plenary Session, attendee-organized workshops, and a wide range of development and networking events for every career stage. ...

It is our pleasure to announce the second Current Opinion Conference on Plant Genome Evolution, to be held in Amsterdam, September 8-10th, 2013. We are delighted to be holding this (now biannual) event again after a very successful first meeting in 2011 where renowned plant researchers gave inspiring talks and where many discussed their latest research in the field. For the 2013 meeting, which will be at least half a day longer, we are even more ambitious and are trying to put together an even more exciting program focused on plant genomes, natural variation, and systems biology, of course all with a strong emphasis on evolution and evolutionary aspects. This meeting will be the unique opportunity to meet and discuss with colleagues, get updated on the newest developments and insights in plant genome evolution, and will provide unique possibilities to network and discuss collaborations. Also, we are delighted already that Prof. Doug Soltis (University of Florida, USA) has agreed to deliver the plenary lecture on Sunday, opening the meeting. ... [Information of the supplier]
The ProkaGENOMICS conference series has been launched in 2003 by the GenoMik funding initiative of the BMBF and took place every two years, until 2011. In 2015 the North German Center of Microbial Genomics (www.nzmg.de) will revive this successful conference series devoted to all aspects of microbial genomics, one of the most rapidly evolving fields in molecular life sciences. The increasing power of high-throughput technologies now allows simultaneous examination of thousands of genes, transcripts, proteins, and metabolites. These so-called Omics technologies have become the new mantra in microbial genomics. They are powerful tools that allow monitoring of regulatory processes genome-wide under hundreds of different conditions, even single-cell analyses are becoming possible. The ProkaGENOMICS 2015 conference will address this challenging field of microbiology. ... [Information of the supplier]
This SRC conference is an important and unique scientific meeting where the intersections of plant development, signaling, modeling and genomics are explored through talks, poster sessions, and intensive scientific discussion. Outstanding researchers from around the world presenting cutting edge research directed towards a fundamental understanding of how different aspects of plant growth and development are controlled in response to intrinsic and external signals, and how such mechanisms are modified over evolutionary time. Plant growth and development are at the core of agricultural productivity, and are essential for human survival. The spirit of the meeting is that understanding fundamental biology is the surest way to advance practical gains in agriculture. In addition, plant biology has pioneered new insights into many fields over the last century, including genetics, developmental biology, epigenetics and genomics. This conference, which has been held every 2-3 years for the past twenty-five years, is the only regular international meeting devoted entirely to plant developmental biology. The interactions between established scientists and young investigators entering in this field are facilitated by special sessions that maximize interactions between the two groups. Its small size and secluded location make it a fantastic opportunity for discussion of new ideas and emerging concepts in the exciting and rapidly moving field of plant development. ...

The symposium will be held in the Institute of Systematic Botany and the Botanische Staatssammlung München, which are located in the Botanical Garden in München-Nymphenburg. Many historical and natural attractions are either within walking distance or easily reachable by public transport. Lake Starnberg and the foothills of the Alps are just 46 minutes by S-Bahn. The preliminary program includes eight sessions, to be opened by internationally renowned speakers, and three plenary talks on topics of broad interest. ... [Information of the supplier]
The 5th Conference on Plant Genome Evolution will take place from 29 September - 1 October 2019 at the Meliá Sitges Hotel Congress Centre, Sitges, Spain. [Information of the supplier]
For the 2023 meeting, which will take place at the Hilton Dresden, Germany, Sunday September 24th – Tuesday September 26th 2023, we are trying to put together a programme focused on natural variation, domestication, epigenetics, polyploidy, and systems biology of green algae and land plants, of course all with a strong emphasis on evolution and evolutionary aspects. ...

We very much look forward to the next years Mycotoxin Workshop, which will be held in Ghent, Belgium. The conference will start Wednesday, 22nd of May 2013, and end Friday, 24th of May 2013. The workshop will be organized by Prof. Dr. Siska Croubels (Department of Pharmacology, Toxicology and Biochemistry, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine) and by Prof. Sarah De Saeger (Department of Bioanalysis, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences) from Ghent University (Belgium) in cooperation with the MYTOX research group (www.en.mytox.be), together with the Society for Mycotoxin Research. ...

The 12th European Fusarium Seminar is being organised by the Mycology and Food Safety Research Unit, at INRA and will be held at the Palais de la Bourse, Bordeaux. Fusarium is in general present everywhere on cultivated crop and in the environment. Harvests are usually safe but sometimes, depending on climatic conditions, various Fusarium species can cause terrible epidemics of blight. In addition, most Fusarium species produce secondary metabolites that accumulate in crops and are very toxic for human and animal consumers. The produced mycotoxins are usually very stable and only few enzymatic systems from other organisms have been found able to degrade or inactivate theses compounds. After almost thirty years of intensive research fighting against these undesirable pathogens and their toxins, are we able to mitigate their effects? A lot of factors influencing epidemics of Fusarium blight and accumulation of toxins in the harvests have been identified: climatic conditions, cultural practices, virulence of the pathogens, resistance status of cultivars, stressing conditions, the fungicides being used etc. In addition, exploration of Fusarium diversity is far from being complete. Indeed, the number of Fusarium species identified worldwide increases every day and epidemiology studies show continuous changes in populations. Today, reduction of mycotoxin levels in food and feeds remains a tremendous challenge for the future. ... [Information of the supplier]
