1st Annual Conference on “Plant Microbiomes” in Porto, Portugal, from 11 to 13 September 2024
The MiCropBiomes COST Action will hold its 1st Annual Conference on “Plant Microbiomes” in Porto, Portugal, from 11 to 13 September 2024. The conference expects to welcome 60 participants and will serve as a platform to discuss the strategy for obtaining the project’s databases and associated indicators/variables. Scientific presentations and poster sessions serve to exchange knowledge and share technical expertise on plant microbiomes and their response to biotic and abiotic stress factors.
The conference will address topics of four Working Groups:
WG 1: Exploiting Plant-Microbiome molecular crosstalks: diversity, distribution and eco-evolutionary perspectives
WG 2: Crop-Microbiome assembly dynamics under specific environments
WG 3: Crop microbiomes and plant diseases: from dysbiosis to increased defenses
WG 4: From current microbial inoculants to synthetic communities
Online registration will be possible from 24 May 2024. The deadline for registration and abstract submission is 30 June 2024.
