8th International Workshop on Sulfur Metabolism in Higher Plants
The 8th International Workshop on Sulfur Metabolism in Higher Plants entitled "Sulfur Metabolism in Plants: Mechanisms and Application to Food Security and Responses to Climate Change" will jointly be organized by the Department of Forest and Ecosystem Science, University of Melbourne, Creswick, Australia and the Laboratory of Plant Physiology, Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Studies, University of Groningen, The Netherlands and will be held at The University of Melbourne - Creswick Campus, Water Street, Creswick, Victoria 3363, Australia, November 22 - 27, 2010.
The aim of the International Plant Sulfur Workshop series is to bring together scientists from various disciplines in Plant Sulfur Research in order to discuss, to integrate and to further strengthening research on "Managing Sulfur Metabolism in Plants", "Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystems" and "Food Security, Quality and Safety". The workshops are focused on post genomic technologies and plant sulfur nutrition, engineering quality, cross-talk of metabolic pathways interacting with sulfur, managing sulfur nutrition, diagnosing sulfur deficiency, sulfur in plants and stress responses, push-pull regulation of sulfur assimilation pathways, (global) regulators of sulfur metabolism, interaction between sulfur and nitrogen metabolism.
