INVITATION: 2nd D-ROOT MEETING
https://droot.info/
Date: 4th March 2020.
Venue: University of Vienna, Althanstrasse 14, 1090 Vienna, UZA II, Seminar Room 2D404
Plant performance is strongly affected by environmental conditions. Subsequently, results of controlled conditions of the lab – “Pampered inside, pestered outside” – are often not suitable to translate back to field conditions. Besides phenotypically differences between lab- and field-grown plants, shoot and root environment must be considered. The D-root meeting was set up to bring scientist together to study the root system architecture (RSA) including the morphological as well as the molecular mechanisms of roots grown under more natural light conditions. First mentioned in 2015, the community working with the D-root device is strongly growing comprising researchers with basic and applied plant background working with Arabidopsis thaliana or cereals. This meeting brings scientist together to present, share and discuss new results and applications concerning experiments with dark-grown roots.
Best wishes, Jakub.
