Annual Systematics Symposium; St. Louis, Missouri; 1990-1994

传播现代生物多样性研究的最新科学发现，包括分子系统发育研究，已经成为密苏里植物园系统系统学年度秋季研讨会的一个标志。这些为期两到四天的聚会汇集了大约400名研究人员和学生，通过公开讲座、非正式会议、还有机会使用这个大型植物机构的图书馆和植物标本室。通常在会议一年内出版正式报告，增加了会议的影响，并向全世界的听众提供这些最新发现。未来五年的主题包括：1990年，非洲和南美洲之间的生物地理关系；1991年，系统学中的计算机数据库；1992，生物种群结构和进化；1993年，安第斯生物地理学；1994，主要植物类群的起源和系统发育关系。在该领域的资深研究人员以及年轻的研究人员通常包括在发言者名单中，从而鼓励新一代的系统科学研究。

Dissemination of recent scientific findings on modern biodiversity research, including molecular phylogenetic studies, has been a hallmark of the Missouri Botanical Garden's annual fall symposium on Systematics. These two to four day gatherings bring together ca. 400 researchers and students, in a program of public lectures, informal meetings, and opportunities to use the library and herbarium of this large botanical institution. Publication of the formal presentations, usually within one year of the meeting, increases the impact of the event and makes available to a worldwide audience these latest findings. Topics for the next five years include: 1990, Biogeographic relationships between Africa and South America; 1991, Computer databases in systematics; 1992, Structure of biological populations and evolution; 1993, Andean biogeography; and 1994, Origin and phylogenetic relationships of the major plant groups. Senior researchers in the field as well as young investigators are typically included in the roster of speakers, thus encouraging a new generation of scientific study in systematics.
