First Annual Conference on “Plant Microbiomes” in September 2024 in Porto

The MiCropBiomes COST Action will hold its First Annual Conference on “Plant Microbiomes” from 11 to 13 September 2024 in Porto, Portugal. The conference, which is expected to attract 60 participants, will discuss strategies for obtaining the project’s databases and associated indicators/variables. Scientific presentations and poster sessions will serve to exchange knowledge and share expertise on plant microbiomes and their response to biotic and abiotic stress factors
The conference will have four scientific sessions corresponding to the 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 is now possible at the Registration page. The deadline for registration and abstract submission is 30 June 2024.

Please consult our Abstract Instructions (PDF file) and the Abstract Template (Word file) before submission.

With kind regards,
Ralf Koebnik (WG5 Vice Leader)
