Plant Nutrition, Growth & Environment Interaction IV
(February 24-25, 2020, Vienna, Austria)
Welcome to the 4th International Conference on “Plant Nutrition, Growth & Environment Interaction”!
Efficient plant production and yield is highly dependent on understanding of the basic principles underlying the three-way interaction between the plant development, its nutrition and its interaction with environment
The 4th International Conference “Plant Nutrition, Growth and Environment Interaction” to be held on February 24-25, 2020 in Vienna Austria will review the state of the art and progress in the knowledge of plant growth, plant responses to nutrition and environment and to set research priorities for the next era of research. The Conference program covers a broad spectrum of topics from plant growth, development and nutrition to plant – environment interactions.
This two-day event will provide leading academy and industry scientists a platform to communicate recent advances in “Plant Nutrition, Growth & Environment Interaction” and an opportunity to establish multilateral collaborations.
Vienna is located in the heart of Europe on the banks of the Danube River, and considered as one of the most important economic, cultural and touristic large cities of central Europe. Apart from providing top science, the Conference will capture the spirit of the city thanks to the central location of the venue offering a multitude of cultural events.
The 4th International Conference “Plant Nutrition, Growth, & Environment Interaction» will cover the following research topics:
- Plant-Microorganism Interactions
- Nutrient Availability in Soils, Toxicity & Remediation
- Nutrient Uptake, Transport & Homeostasis
- Nutrient Functions in Plants
- Nutrient Management & Fertilizers in Crop Production
- Plant Nutrition, Crop Productivity & Food Quality
- Plant-Environment Interaction & Global Climate Change
The list of invited speakers has yet to be confirmed.
Approximately 250 participants are expected to attend this exciting scientific forum including almost 40 lectures delivered by worldwide known invited speakers and young, talented speakers selected from submitted abstracts. The program combines plenary lectures, poster sessions, a unique Conference Dinner Party and sightseeing tours of Vienna.
We are looking forward to see you in Vienna in February 24-25, 2020!
Deadline for submission of abstracts is January 20, 2020
