International Workshop
MOLECULAR CONTROL OF FLOWER DEVELOPMENT & PLANT REPRODUCTION
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, 12-16 April 1992
The objective of the workshop is to evaluate our current understanding
of the molecular mechanisms governing flower development and plant
reproduction.
Organizing Committee
Joseph Mol (chairman), Ed Veltkamp (treasurer), Ronald Koes (secretary-
general), Jan Kooter, Arjen van Tunen
Key Topics
Flower Initiation, Flower Morphology, Flower Pigmentation, Gametophyte
Development, Self-incompatibility, Male/Female Sterility, Fruit/Seed
Development, Flower Senesence, Molecular Flower Breeding.
Principal Speakers
G. Bernier (Liege), J. Bedrock (Oakland), A. Clarke (Parkville),
E. Coen (Norwich), R. Goldberg (Los Angeles), D. Grierson (Nottingham),
C. Martin (Norwich), J. Mascarenhas (Albany), E. Meyerowitz (Pasadena),
H. Saedler (Cologne), Sz. Schartz-Sommer (Cologne), K. Tran Thanh Van
(Gif sur Ivette), W. Woodson (W. Lafayette).
The field of reproductive (molecular) biology is rapidly evolving. The
workshop will address the most recent developments in the respective
research fields. In order to ensure maximum exchange and an
interactive atmosphere, the number of participants will be restricted
to around 250. Those who are seriously interested to attend the
workshop should notify the organizing committee by August 1, 1991.
Applicants will receive a full registration package + abstract forms;
registration will take place in the order of receipt of the
application. The attendance fee will be Dfl. 550. A visit to the
worldflower exhibition FLORIADE that opens its doors at April 10, 1992,
is scheduled during the meeting.
