9th Solanaceae Conference 2012
(National Academy of Sciences, India/ Springer, 2013) Prasad, Manoj
Solanaceae genome community holds annual meeting every year to discuss the updates on current research in field of genetics, genomics and evolutionary biology of Solanaceous crops. The 9th Solanaceae genome conference held at University of Neuchatel, Switzerland on 26th–30th August, 2012, on the theme “SOL2012 Conference from Bench to Innovative Applications”. The salient features of the conference are presented in short in this report.
Solanaceae Conferance: a report on the 7th Solanaceae Conferance (SOL) held during 5-9 September 2010 at Dundee, Scotland
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2011) Prasad, Manoj
To take stock of the understanding of genetics, molecular biology and breeding efforts for solanaceous crops, the Solanaceae Conference (SOL) is being regularly organized every year, starting in 2004, when the first SOL was held at Wageningen, The Netherlands. The 7th SOL held at Dundee, Scotland, was attended by about 250 scientists belonging to as many as 30 countries. This conference was important because significant amount of work has been done in Solanaceae genomics research since the last conference in 2009 and particularly with the near completion of the tomato and potato genome sequencing projects.
