9601010 Poethig This conference is the fifth in a series of very successful FASEB conferences on Plant Molecular Biology. The focus of these conferences has changed from year to year as this rapidly moving field has progressed. The fifth conference is entitled "Plant Developmental Genetics" and will be held from August 10-15, 1996 at Vermont Academy in Saxton's River, VT. Much of the recent progress in plant development has occurred as a result of the use of classical genetic approaches to identify genes involved in various developmental processes, followed by a molecular analysis of these genes. This meeting will summarize recent advances in this exciting area of plant biology. The sessions will carry us through the plant life cycle starting with gametogenesis and ending with reproduction. Woven through the sessions will be a consideration of the cellular, molecular and environmental factors that regulate plant morphogenesis. Although much of the recent work in this area has been carried out on Arabidopsis and maize, other systems -- including ferns, petunia, snapdragon, tomato, pea and the algae, Fucus and Acetabularia -- have also made significant contributions. Each of these systems has unique advantages for studying particular aspects of the plant life cycle. The invited speakers include both young and established investigators. Additional speakers will be drawn from attendees on the basis of submitted abstracts. Ample use will also be made of poster presentations. By bringing together investigators studying these different systems, the organizers hope to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information between scientists who otherwise might not interact. ***

小行星9601010 这次会议是FASEB植物分子生物学系列会议中的第五次。随着这一迅速发展的领域的进步，这些会议的重点每年都在变化。第五次会议的题目是“植物发育遗传学”，将于1996年8月10日至15日在佛蒙特州萨克斯顿河的佛蒙特学院举行。最近在植物发育方面的许多进展都是由于使用经典的遗传学方法来鉴定参与各种发育过程的基因，然后对这些基因进行分子分析。这次会议将总结植物生物学这个令人兴奋的领域的最新进展。会议将带我们通过植物的生命周期开始与配子发生和生殖结束。整个课程将考虑调节植物形态建成的细胞、分子和环境因素。虽然最近在这一领域的大部分工作是在拟南芥和玉米上进行的，但其他系统-包括蕨类植物、矮牵牛花、金鱼草、番茄、豌豆和藻类、墨角藻和伞藻-也作出了重大贡献。这些系统中的每一个对于研究植物生命周期的特定方面都具有独特的优势。受邀的演讲者包括年轻和成熟的调查人员。将根据提交的摘要从与会者中挑选更多的发言者。还将充分利用海报介绍。通过将研究这些不同系统的研究人员聚集在一起，组织者希望促进科学家之间的思想和信息交流，否则他们可能不会相互作用。 ***
