Extractions: American Society of Plant Biologists "We are bringing together speakers working on different organisms, and on different aspects and approaches to the problem, with the aim of achieving a synthesis of understanding to stimulate discussion and further research," says conference chair Venkatesan Sundaresan, University of California, Davis. Each symposium will focus on a different aspect of plant genetics and include three in-depth presentations plus shorter talks based on selected abstracts. Symposia will be held during the evening and morning hours. Afternoons will be free for continued discussion - perhaps while exploring the diversity of plant life along miles of magnificent mountain trails at one of the west's loveliest mountain resorts. Pre-dinner poster sessions and mealtime socializing complete the schedule. "What makes this conference somewhat unique is that all of the speakers will be around the entire time," says Sundaresan. "Some of the most valuable interaction at an event like this happens in between sessions, so we've consciously structured it to facilitate informal discussion and further exploration of the subject." Minutes away from Salt Lake City, Snowbird is one of the country's loveliest mountain retreats. "We wanted a location that was secluded and peaceful, so that participants and speakers could spend as much time as possible focused on the subject at hand," comments the event's vice chair, Rich Jorgensen, University of Arizona.

Extractions: Transition from vegetative to generative growth in response to exogenous and endogenous signals is a vital process for plant propagation. Phase transition is investigated in our department in Antirrhinum majus and in Arabidopsis thaliana . This process is controlled by a number of genes, some encoding transcription factors like MADS-Box- and SBP-Box-Proteins. Floral development commences with the formation of floral meristems. Transcription factors determine flower organ primordium identity and assure organ development. The factors involved as well as the detailed networking of these factors and their targets is of prime interest within the department. The knowledge accumulated can be applied to design crop plants with respect to their inflorescence or floral architecture. MADS-Box genes controlling architectural features are also well suited for evolutionary studies, i. e. concerning the origin of flowers. Taxa examined include mosses, ferns, gnetophytes and angiosperms. In addition, a system of "Reverse Genetics" has been established in Arabidopsis thaliana ZIGIA ) using the En Spm transposon from Zea mays . This element was used to isolate and characterize genes involved in differentiation of epidermal cells initiating a new field of research dealing with cell signaling.

Extractions: This course will introduce students to the basics of genetics in plants. Then use this as basis to approach the topics of plant biotechnology. The biotechnology section of the course will look in depth at; the culture of plants in sterile medium, the uses of plant culture, and leading on to genetic transformation of the plant genome with foreign and host genes. The applications of genetic engineering will be investigated and its potential for aiding agriculture in the future will be assessed. 1. Introduction lecture (PS) 2. Plant sexual reproduction; flower form (PS) Look at the structure of a flower and the individual elements. Focus on how a flower develops. Three stages; vegetative growth transformed to formation of a inflorescence meristem, conversion of inflorescence meristem into a floral meristem, formation of the individual elements of the flower. 3. Plant sexual reproduction; incompatibility (PS) The different methods used by plants in order to insure cross pollination. Flower structure, sexual dimorphism, gametophytic and sporophytic incompatibility. 4. The Plant genome (SP)

Course Objectives: Emphasis and direction Plant genetics has traditionally centred on the understanding of genome structure in plants and the inheritance of genetic traits. This course will approach plant genetics from the angle of biotechnology. Through the lecture series we will concentrate on the applied use of our understanding of plant genetics to alter plants. We will focus on particular examples where manipulation of genetic material in plants offers opportunities both to radically alter plant metabolism and increase our understanding of plants. For the first time this year the course will incorporate a number of computer assisted learning based elements. This part of the course will take place in the computer room in 4B10.

Environmental Soil Science Agronomy Home Page: The Plant Genetics and Plant Breeding Option is designed for students interested in agricultural biotechnology, genetic engineering, and research in genetic mechanisms that control crop growth and development. This option prepares students for many research opportunities in industry and provides the necessary background for graduate studies. Students also learn the fundamentals of genetics and practical plant breeding as well as the latest developments in genetic engineering, environmentally sound crop production practices, development of varieties appropriate for the agriculture of developing countries, and strategies for developing plant lines adapted to environmental stresses. Opportunities exist for training both in laboratory and field practices important to modern genetics research. Employment Opportunities There is a wide range of employment opportunities for graduates of the Plant Genetics and Plant Breeding option in the seed and biotechnology industries and plant genetics research and teaching. Students specializing in plant breeding are prepared for a broad range of careers involving development of improved crop varieties and their adaptation to crop production systems.

Host Plant Genetics Discussion
Potato Late Blight Online Workshop Potato Host plant genetics Discussion Forum.Hello, I am Paul Tooley, the moderator of the host plant genetics folder.
http://www.apsnet.org/online/lateblite/phdgdg.htm

Extractions: Discussion Forum Hello, I am Paul Tooley, the moderator of the host plant genetics folder. Please feel free to post messages and contribute discussion relating to either traditional and/or molecular approaches to developing potatoes with durable resistance to late blight. Most agree that resistance would represent perhaps the most viable and cost-effective solution to the late blight problem, over the long run. Traditional approaches have met with some success so far, but the pathogen has proven to be a changeable foe, often causing resistant cultivars to succumb to new races. Horizontal resistance may be the key, but there are differences of opinion on how best to breed for such resistance- also how and where to perform the most meaningful type of screening against the most virulent races. Molecular approaches also have shown promise, but some of the newer technologies have not been "field tested" sufficiently, or may meet with a certain amount of lack of grower acceptance when finally available commercially. Progress may be impeded by the difficulty of manipulating the host genetically and performing transformation and other molecular methods. Feel free to post messages and comment on any of the topics covered in the above two areas and listed in the discussions, and offer suggestions for the most effective ways to develop potato cultivars with durable blight resistance for the next millenium. I'll be monitoring the discussions in this area as the workshop progresses, and bringing specific areas of interest to the forefront for further discussion.Thanks for participating.
