The International Association of Sexual Plant Reproduction Research (IASPRR) hosts an international congress (ICSPR) once every two years to discuss the major advances in and to foster collaborations in the field of plant reproduction. A parallel conference series (Frontiers of Sexual Plant Reproduction -FSPR) was held once in four years in the USA. In 2016, these two organizations are hosting a joint conference in Tucson, bringing the international congress to the USA for the first time.
An exciting program is in store for Plant Reproduction 2016, encompassing 9 non-overlapping sessions, allowing all attendees to attend all sessions. Research in many model organisms are represented:
Floral Induction and Floral Organ Development
Sporogenesis, Meiosis & Apomixis
Gametogenesis
Pollen-Pistil Interactions
Gametophyte Interactions and Fertilization
Embryogenesis
Endosperm Development
Regulation of parental genome expression
Fruit & Seed Development

Sincerely,
Organizing Committee
