The 16th Annual Symposium "Plant Response to Celluar Dehydration During Environmental Stress", January 28-30, 1993, in Riverside, California

加州大学河滨分校（UCR）植物与植物科学系在过去的15年里每年都会举办一次关于植物生理学主题的研讨会。第16届年度研讨会题为“植物在环境胁迫下对细胞脱水的反应”，将于1993年1月28日至30日举行，由Timothy J. Close和Elizabeth A. Bray教授组织。1993年研讨会的目的是将在环境压力领域工作的科学家聚集在一起，目的是讨论和报告将导致对压力适应的细胞、生理和遗传方面有更深入的了解。将邀请来自国外和美国其他机构的演讲者，特别是年轻的研究人员。有讨论和展示海报的时间。提交的论文以及海报摘要将迅速廉价地出版。里弗赛德大学是举办这次研讨会的理想地点，因为：(1)这里和南加州有相当多的教师对环境压力有研究兴趣；(2)滨江交通便利；(3) UCR已经建立了成功举办专题讨论会的声誉；(4)临近1993年戈登植物温度胁迫研究会议，该会议将在其后举行。

The Department of Botany and Plant Sciences, University of California, Riverside (UCR) has held a symposium each of the past 15 years on timely topics in plant physiology. The 16th Annual Symposium, entitled "Plant Response to Cellular Dehydration During Environmental Stress," will be held January 28-30, 1993, and will be organized by Professors Timothy J. Close and Elizabeth A. Bray. The objective of the 1993 Symposium is to bring together scientists working in the area of environmental stress, with the intention that discussion and presentations will lead to a greater understanding of cellular, physiological, and genetic aspects of stress adaptation. Speakers, especially young investigators, from abroad and other institutions in the U.S. will be invited. Time for discussion and poster presentation is allotted. Presented papers, as well as poster abstracts, will be published rapidly and inexpensively. Riverside is an ideal location for this symposium because: (1) there are a substantial number of faculty here and in Southern California with research interests in environmental stress; (2) Riverside is easily accessible; (3) UCR has built a reputation for successful symposia; (4) the close proximity to the 1993 Gordon Research Conference on Temperature Stress in Plants which will follow this conference.
