INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON
STRESS SYNERGISMS IN PLANTS
Abiotic and Biotic Stress in
Photosynthesis
TATA, HUNGARY, 23-26 AUGUST 1998
Organizing Committee: M. Bar=DBn (Granada, Spain), H. R. Bolh=B7r-Nordenkamp=
f
(Vienna, Austria), M. Droppa (Budapest, Hungary), G. Horv=B7th (Budapest,
Hungary). Treasurer: Z. Szigeti (Budapest, Hungary).
Scope of the meeting: The workshop will assemble scientists interested in
stress induced alterations of metabolic processes related directly or
indirectly to photosynthesis in plants and autotrophic microorganisms. It
will provide an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and to discuss
results in more details concerning responses of photosynthesis and plant
productivity to various stress factors. Besides of single stress effects,
the action of combined stress is planned to be a main issue.
Main topics of the meeting
- Alteration of physiological processes related to photosynthesis by various
stress factors (e.g. heavy metal, ozone, extreme temperature, pathogen
infection, drought, light etc.)
- Stress synergisms affecting photosynthesis and plant productivity
- responses at molecular and cellular levels
- responses at organ and whole plant levels
- responses at ecosystem level
- modeling of stress responses
- technics to detect stress in plants
Practical informations:
Location: Tata is situated in the midwest of Hungary about 60 kms from
Budapest. The meeting will be hosted in the well equipped complex of
the Training Camp of the Hungarian National Sport Teams with
numerous sporting and recreation facilities.
Dates: Arrival at Tata at lunch time on the 23rd of August, departure from
Tata in morning hours on the 26th of August.
=46ees: Participant US$ 180, accompanying members US$ 120 (including
transportation from to Budapest, all meals and accommodation,
reception, farewell diner, excursion of accompanied persons and
swimming facilities).
Accommodation will be arranged within the Training Camp based on double
occupancy.
Application: The overall number of participants is limited to 80.
Selection is made based on scientific activity of candidates on
topics of the workshop.
Deadline of applications: 15th May, 1998
