   24th New Phytologist Symposium: Plant respiration and climate change

Climate-mediated changes in plant respiration are now accepted as an important component of the biosphere’s response to global climate change. The goal of this meeting will be to act as a catalyst for future cross-discipline research by bringing together plant biologists and modellers working on respiration at the molecular, cellular, whole organism and ecosystem levels. In doing so, the meeting will provide an opportunity to significantly improve our understanding of this key metabolic process.

This conference is addressing to food agencies, research institutions and processing industries, as well as researchers who are interested in the latest developments of the use of biocatalysts for the production of high quality and healthier food, feed and drinks.

 Paper/abstract deadline:Tue 15 Sep 2009
Themes to be explored at this conference will include the development of agri-environment policy, the rationale behind the current schemes, the science underpinning the options, implementation at field, farm and landscape scales, the assessment and evaluation of the outcomes, and the implications for future developments. A particular emphasis will be placed on the collection and assessment of evidence for success (or otherwise) of agri-environment schemes in achieving their objectives, and how this could be improved. Of specific interest will be the nature and early results from evaluation of new agri-environment schemes established following the 2005 CAP reform, but the scope will also include earlier AES and comparisons between them. Both monitoring of direct benefits and socio-economic evaluations may be included. In addition, papers describing underpinning research will also be welcomed. Keynote speakers will be invited to set the policy context.
