About the Plant DNA Session
Plants have a complex and highly intricate form of DNA that is responsible for their unique characteristics and functions. Plant DNA is composed of two strands of nucleic acids, known as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This double-stranded molecule contains the instructions for the genetic code that is responsible for the development, functioning, and reproduction of all known living organisms. Plant DNA is made up of four nucleotides - adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, which pair together in a specific order to form the double helix. These nucleotides are arranged into coding and noncoding regions, which direct the expression of genetic traits. The coding regions are responsible for the production of proteins, while the noncoding regions are responsible for regulation of gene expression. The precise order of nucleotides, as well as the amount of information stored in them, determine the characteristics of a particular plant species. Plant DNA contains both structural and functional information that is used in a variety of ways, such as in the development of new crop varieties and the identification of plant diseases. Plant DNA is essential for the survival of plants, as it is responsible for th

Plant DNA Conference 2027 — FAQs
What is the Plant DNA track at GPB 2027?
The Plant DNA track is a dedicated stream within GPB 2027 covering the latest research, clinical innovation, and best practice in Plant DNA. It brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners for oral presentations, posters, and discussion.
Who should attend the Plant DNA sessions?
Plant scientists, breeders, biotechnologists, agronomists, doctoral students, and research leaders with an interest in Plant DNA are all welcome — whether presenting or attending.
Can I present my research in the Plant DNA track?
Yes. Submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation. All submissions are peer-reviewed by the scientific committee; accepted abstracts appear in the indexed proceedings.
Is virtual attendance available for Plant DNA sessions?
Yes. GPB 2027 is a hybrid conference — attend the Plant DNA track in person in Singapore or join live online, with on-demand access afterward.
