Agriculture in the 21st century faces two significant challenges: feeding a growing global population and responding to the effects of changing climates. The emerging technologies have revolutionized plant research. Integrating genome sequencing, omic technologies, and plant genetics provides us with greater opportunities to understand plant development, nutrition, metabolism, and how plants respond to different stresses. Genome-editing technology and synthetic biology have significantly helped improve agronomic traits in various crops. The application of AI and robotics enables “smarter” agriculture.

Topics of the meeting with include:

• Plant genomics

• Nutrition and yield

• Stress responses

• Plant biotechnology

• Smart agriculture
