This conference on plant genetics is the first of an annual series of specialized meetings to be sponsored by the American Society of Plant Biology. The focus of this conference will be on the nature and mechanisms of genetic variation in plants and their relationship to the evolution of plant form and function, as well as on plant speciation and crop domestication. Concepts of these processes have grown dramatically in recent years as genomic sequencing efforts for several model and crop plant species have advanced. The conference will bring together speakers working on different organisms, and on different aspects and approaches to the problem, with the aim of achieving a synthesis of understanding to stimulate discussion and further research. Approximately 250 participants are expected. The secluded setting and schedule are designed to facilitate ongoing interaction between the presenters and attendees. All meals will be on-site and the speakers will remain in attendance throughout the entire conference. Afternoons will be free for recreation, informal discussions and other activities. Participation by graduate students and young postdoctoral fellows is strongly encouraged. Discounted rates for registration and accommodation will be supported by this award. Organizers for this year's conference are Dr. Venkatesan Sundaresan of the University of California at Davis and Dr. Rich Jorgensen of the University of Arizona.

这次植物遗传学会议是美国植物生物学会主办的年度专业会议系列中的第一次。 本次会议的重点将是植物遗传变异的性质和机制及其与植物形态和功能进化的关系，以及植物物种形成和作物驯化。 近年来，随着几种模型和农作物物种的基因组测序工作的进展，这些过程的概念急剧增长。 会议将汇集研究不同生物、不同方面和解决问题的方法的发言者，目的是达成综合理解，以促进讨论和进一步研究。 预计约有 250 名参与者。 僻静的环境和日程安排旨在促进演讲者和与会者之间的持续互动。 所有餐点都将在现场进行，演讲者将在整个会议期间始终出席。 下午可自由活动、休闲讨论和其他活动。强烈鼓励研究生和年轻博士后的参与。 该奖项将支持注册和住宿折扣费。 今年会议的组织者是加州大学戴维斯分校的 Venkatesan Sundaresan 博士和亚利桑那大学的 Rich Jorgensen 博士。 更多信息请访问会议网站：http://www.aspb.org/meetings/pg-2003/index.cfm
