Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are pleased to announce this call for papers for a Special Issue consisting of papers selected from the 6th International Scientific Conference “PlantGen2021”, which will be held on 14–18 June 2021 at the Federal Research Center Institute of Cytology and Genetics SB RAS in Novosibirsk, Russia (https://conf.icgbio.ru/plantgen2021/en/). The Conference will present the results of the latest original research related to the topics: 1) genetics of development and stress tolerance; 2) evolutionary and functional genomics; 3) plant biotechnology in the post-genome era; 4) bioinformatics, plant systems biology and digital phenotyping; 5) industrial biotechnology.
