C02 Crop Physiology and Metabolism Session: Symposium--Future Directions for Crop Physiology (ASA, CSSA and SSSA International Annual Meetings)

111 Symposium--Future Directions for Crop Physiology

Oral Session

C02 Crop Physiology and Metabolism

We shall explore the role of plant physiology in crop improvement focusing on physiological and molecular breeding as well as improved understanding of the mechanistic and genetic basis of crop adaptation to a changing climate and the value of phenotyping in the genomics era.
