Connectivity – Plant interactions reloaded

Date: 02 December 2020
Abstract submission poster:  until 18.11.2020
Registration: open

Despite the physical distance imposed by the pandemic, the PSC symposium 2020 will bring the international plant science community together. This year’s PSC symposium will highlight the manifold interactions plants are engaged in. The interactions range from the molecular to the environmental level and are indispensable for development, reproduction, nutrient exploitation and disease resistance against pathogens. Interactions drive evolution and shape the natural communities. Studying plant connectivity at different levels, in a more contextual way and combining different disciplines is key to move forward in our understanding of the plant systems. This multidisciplinary research can be integrated in an ecological framework where optimal management of nature’s ecological functions and biodiversity may improve agricultural system performance, efficiency and farmers’ livelihoods.
PSC junior scientists are invited to present posters and flash talks. Poster awards will be given to the best posters chosen by participants and a scientific committee.
