0314259Columbus, Friar, Porter, and Prince Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden (RSABG) in California will host the Third International Conference on the Comparative Biology of the Monocotyledons (Monocots III) jointly with the Fourth International Symposium on Grass Systematics and Evolution (Grasses IV) on 31 March to 4 April, 2003. Past conferences have been successul gatherings that have resulted in widely referenced conference proceedings on the comparative biology and evolution of monocots, and stimulated the formation of new research initiatives and international collaborations. Monocots III/Grasses IV will offer a core program in systematics while integrating new and highly relevant advances in the disciplines of developmental biology and genomics, with an emphasis on data integration across molecular and morphological domains. Monocot researchers from around the world will assemble to share knowledge and results on the taxonomy, phylogeny, and classification of all groups of monocots, including the large families of grasses, sedges, and orchids, and to discuss recent advances in genome evolution of cereals and other monocots and floral development and evolution in these plants. Funds from the award will provide travel monies for young investigators (new faculty, graduate students and recent graduates mostly) and for scientists from developing countries. This and waiver of conference registration fees for these groups will help attract a large group of participants, to what traditionally has been a well-attended meeting drawing several hundred scientists.

2003年3月31日至4月4日，加州的哥伦布、弗莱尔、波特和圣安娜王子牧场植物园（RSABG）将联合主办第三届单子叶植物比较生物学国际会议（Monocots III）和第四届国际草系统学和进化研讨会（Grasses IV）。过去的会议已经成功的聚会，导致了广泛引用的会议记录的比较生物学和单子叶植物的进化，并刺激了新的研究计划和国际合作的形成。Monocots III/Grasses IV将提供系统学的核心课程，同时整合发育生物学和基因组学学科的新的和高度相关的进展，重点是分子和形态学领域的数据整合。来自世界各地的单子叶植物研究人员将聚集在一起，分享关于所有单子叶植物组的分类学，植物发生学和分类的知识和结果，包括草，莎草和兰花的大家族，并讨论谷物和其他单子叶植物的基因组进化以及这些植物的花发育和进化的最新进展。该奖项的资金将为年轻的研究人员（主要是新教师、研究生和最近的毕业生）和来自发展中国家的科学家提供旅费。这一点以及免除这些团体的会议注册费将有助于吸引大批与会者，参加传统上吸引数百名科学家参加的会议。
