Plant Genetics and Genomics focuses on the genetic principles and genomic mechanisms that shape plant traits, diversity, evolution, and performance. The session includes plant heredity, functional genomics, comparative genomics, epigenetics, genetic mapping, population genetics, transcriptomics, and gene regulation.
Abstract Scope and Participation
The session welcomes abstracts involving classical genetics, molecular genetics, genomic technologies, computational analysis, and crop-related applications. Plant geneticists, genomic researchers, breeders, bioinformaticians, evolutionary biologists, educators, and students are encouraged to participate.
