PROGRAM
There will be three sessions (focused on Physiology of Yield, Genetics of Yield, and Grain Quality). Every session will include oral/poster presentations about research on tools and methods used in their respective contexts (e.g. phenotyping or genotyping).
Each session will be opened by a keynote presentation delivered by an invited speaker, followed by a series of oral presentations selected by the Organization from the abstracts submitted and an open discussion on the presentations delivered (with active participation of the audience as well, not just questions/answers to/from presenters), and closed by a Poster Session (that will include not only the traditional poster viewing but also a preliminary “Carrousel” of 2-minutes flash talks by each of the poster presenters summarized in only two slides presentation, as a tool to attract visitors to the posters.
