XXIVth EUCARPIA Maize and Sorghum Conference - <br />Integrating quantitative and molecular genetics to develop new breeding methods in maize and sorghum</h1> <h5>October 7 – 9, 2019</h5> <p>On behalf of the Scientific Committee we are pleased to invite you to attend the XXIVth EUCARPIA Maize and Sorghum Conference.</p> <p>Research and development in plant breeding has supreme relevance for securing yield and yield stability in agricultural production. We bring together molecular, quantitative and computational expertise to learn about the latest developments in maize and sorghum breeding and discuss future research needs. With the new technologies, plant breeding has become more exciting and dynamic than ever, so please follow our invitation and join us in October this year.</p> <p><strong>Alain Charcosset</strong>: Chair of the EUCARPIA Maize and Sorghum Section<br /><strong>Chris-Carolin Schön</strong>: Chair of the Scientific Committee</p> <p>The conference will precede the TAST2019 symposium (“Towards Abiotic Stress Tolerance”; <a href="http://www.TAST2019.wzw.tum.de" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.TAST2019.wzw.tum.de</a>), to be held at the same venue October 10, 2019 as part of the Plant Sciences Symposia Series.</p> <p><strong>Invited Speakers</strong></p> <ul style="list-style-type: disc;"> <li>Gustavo de los Campos, Michigan State University, USA</li> <li>Matthieu Falque, INRA, France</li> <li>Caroline Gutjahr, Technical University of Munich, Germany</li> <li>Frank Hochholdinger, University of Bonn, Germany</li> <li>Matthew Hufford, Iowa State University, USA</li> <li>Jana Kholova, ICRISAT, India</li> <li>Christina Lehermeier, RAGT, France</li> <li>Aaron Lorenz, University of Minnesota, USA</li> <li>Emma Mace, University of Queensland, Australia</li> <li>Albrecht Melchinger, University of Hohenheim, Germany</li> <li>Emilie Millet, Wageningen University, Netherlands</li> <li>Laurence Moreau, INRA, France</li> <li>David Pot, CIRAD, France</li> <li>Pedro Revilla, CSIC, Spain</li> <li>Cinta Romay, Cornell University, USA</li> <li>Michelle Stitzer, UC Davis, USA</li> <li>Randall Wisser, University of Delaware, USA</li> </ul> <p> If you have any questions, please send an email to <a href="mailto:plantbreeding.wzw@tum.de">plantbreeding.wzw@tum.de</a>.</p> <p><strong>Sponsors</strong></p> <p><strong><img src="/custom/media/EUCARPIA_2019/Bilder/Sponsoren_lang_5_neu.jpg" alt="" /><br /></strong></p> </section> </div><!-- /.module-user-content --> </section><!-- /.content-inner-wrapper --> </div> <div class="column column-aside-right"> <aside class="aside-right-inner-wrapper"> <section class="widget widget-conference-contact"> <span class="widget-heading"> Your contact person </span> <p> <b> Ulrike Utans-Schneitz & Ute Wiegand</b><br>TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan<br>Chair of Plant Breeding</p><p>Liesel-Beckmann-Str. 2<br>85354 Freising</p><p>Phone 0049 8161 71 5226<br/>Fax 0049 8161 71 4511</p> <p> <a href="mailto:plantbreeding.wzw@tum.de"> Email </a> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.events.tum.de/frontend/index.php?sub=120" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Website </a> </p> </section> </aside><!-- /.aside-right-inner-wrapper --> </div><!-- /.column-aside-right --> </div><!-- /.row-content-outer-wrapper --> </div><!-- /.content-outer-wrapper --> </div> </div> </div><!-- /.page-wrapper --> <footer class="page-footer"> <div class="row row-page-footer"> <div class="column column-copy"> <section class="copy-inner-wrapper"> <nav class="nav-footer"> <ul> <!-- Custom --> <li class="nav-footer-item nav-footer-item-company-name"> <a href="https://www.tum.de/en/" target="_blank">TUM Technische Universität München</a> </li> <li class="nav-footer-item nav-footer-item-conference-overview"> <a href="/frontend/index.php?page_id=441">Conference Overview</a> </li> <li class="nav-footer-item nav-footer-item-privacy-policy"> <a href="/frontend/index.php?page_id=443">Privacy Policy</a> </li> <!-- /Custom --> <li class="nav-footer-item nav-footer-item-imprint"> <a href="/frontend/index.php?page_id=3595" title="Legal Details"> Legal Details </a> </li> <li class="nav-footer-item nav-footer-item-privacy"> <a href="/frontend/index.php?page_id=3159" title="Privacy policy"> Privacy policy </a> </li> </ul> </nav><!-- /.nav-footer --> </section><!-- /.copy-inner-wrapper --> </div><!-- /.column-copy --> <div class="column column-white-labeling"> <section class="white-labeling white-labeling-footer"> <a class="white-label-wrapper" href="https://www.converia.de/en/" target="_blank" title="Conference Management and Ticketing Software"> <span class="white-label-logo"> </span> <span class="white-label-name"> Conference Management and Ticketing Software </span> </a><!-- /.white-label-wrapper --> </section><!-- /.white-labeling-footer --> </div><!-- /.column-white-labeling --> </div><!-- /.row-page-footer --> </footer><!-- /.page-footer --> </div><!-- /.app-wrapper--> <script src="/custom/js/tum2018/main.js"></script> </body> </html>
