First International Symposium on Biotechnology of Fruit Species
October 31, 2007| |
The First International Symposium on Biotechnology of Fruit Species will be held on September 1-5, 2008 in Dresden, Germany, under the auspices of the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS). Among the topics to be discussed include the release and commercialization of transgenic fruit varieties, in vitro propagation and other plant regeneration processes, new strategies in gene technology like cisgenesis, genomics, and research advances in addressing disease resistance/ tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and other agronomically important traits.
