EUCARPIA - European Association for Research on Plant Breeding
Zentrales Hörsaal-Gebäude - Goettingen, Germany
This conference will focus on the development of new crop breeding strategies to improve crop nutrient use efficiency, as one strategy to address these challenges.
The program will include the first results of the NUE-CROPS project (Improving nutrient efficiency in maj...
Provides an introduction to breeding methodology and selection theory for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers in animal and plant breeding. Conducted by Piter Bijma of Wageningen UR, one of the leading authorities in this field.
Provides an introduction to the evolution and selection of quantitative traits for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers in animal and plant breeding.
The workshop will give an overview of epigenetics, detail the methods used and the mechanisms implicated, and present information about how epigenetics could be used in plant breeding programs, as well as in plant protection against viruses.
The conference provides a prestigious business platform to meet and to exchange and create novel technologies, commercial applications and partnerships in the field of genomics in the agro and industrial biotech industries.
Will provide leading academy and industry scientists a platform to communicate recent advances in Plant Genetics and Breeding Technologies and an opportunity to establish multilateral collaborations.
The aim of this course is to offer training in the genetic analysis methodologies employed in WISP at the John Innes Centre. The participants will gain the skills necessary to apply these methodologies in their own research.
The overall theme of the symposium will be: "Evaluation of seed quality: a key step in exploiting the benefits of plant breeding and genetic conservation"
