The event brings together Professors, researchers, key officials and delegates from almost 50 countries with interactive talks, sessions, workshops and symposiums in the current recent advancements in Plant Science & Physiology research.

Plants are green or not green, small or tall, beautiful or irritating, rare or everywhere. Plants grow happily without us, but our lives depend on them. We take a moment to appreciate plants for their diversity, beauty and importance in our lives. As scientists, we share what fascinates us about plants, and what drives our curiosity to delve deeper into their lives.

Global community driven effort consisting of a diverse set of partner organisations have voluntarily come together to enable breeders and researchers to mobilise a vast range of plant genetic variation to accelerate the rate of crop improvement and furnish food and agricultural products to the growing human population.  It brings together large-scale genotyping and phenotyping projects, computational and data standards projects with the genebanks and germplasm curators. High throughput and field based phenotyping has seen huge transformational change in the last decade and in the next 5-10 years I hope that it will start to become part of the everyday toolkit of plant science researchers in the way that genomics has.

Global Market Research on Plant Science & Physiology

Plant science questions could slove by sharing of scientific theories, including experimental data and observations has beem a core consept of the scientific endeavour since the enlightement. Sharing allows others to evaluate research, to identify errors, and allow ideas to be corroborated, invalidated and build up on. It also facilitates the transmission of consepts and theories to a wider audience and that will hopefully inspire others to get involved in science, contribute ideas and further our understanding the world around us. In the last decade a number of changes at the goverment, funder, publisher and institutional level have promoted and facilated the concept of open science. However, if science is to be a truly open endeavour it will require a change in mind-set at many levels to migrate towards a culture where open data in the norm. Without this we will not be able to fully realise the investment in research, in terms of both finance provided and the time and intellectual contribution of the individual involved, and contribute to developing the solutions that will help ameliorate current global problems. 

The role of phytochemicals is to provide health and medicinal benefits thereby ensuring the prevention and treatment of diseases.
