The theme of the conference is “Accentuate Innovations and Emerging Novel Research in Plant Sciences”. The meeting captivated a vicinity of utilitarian discussions on novel subjects like Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, Plant Biotechnology, Plant Pathology: Mechanisms Of Disease, Applications In Plant Sciences And Plant Research, to mention a few. The three days event implanted a firm relation of upcoming strategies in the field of Plant Science and Molecular Biology with the scientific community. The conceptual and pertinent knowledge shared, will correspondingly foster organizational collaborations to nurture scientific accelerations.
