190 Symposium--Technological Advances Driving the Next Green Revolution: High Throughput Phenotyping

Oral Session
C02 Crop Physiology and Metabolism

The goal is to bring together researchers from public and private sector for update and comparison of the newest available technologies in the fields of molecular genetics and breeding. It is also an opportunity to direct attention on the important role of plant physiology, which is basically the high throughput phenotyping, for molecular genetics and biotechnology achievements to be translated into a final product, gene function, and be of use for farmers, improved products.
