The Xanthomonas Genomics Conference 2009 will provide a venue for researchers from around the globe to share results and ideas. Xanthomonas constitutes the largest and most important group of plant-associated bacteria. Members of the genus cause diseases on many crop and ornamental species, as well as model species such as Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, tomato, and Medicago truncatula. Genomics is at the center of a revolution in Xanthomonas biology. Genome sequence-enabled studies are leading to a better understanding of Xanthomonas signaling and effector molecules. These studies, integrated with host plant genome-enabled research, are elucidating important plant processes. Next generation sequencing technologies are accelerating discovery. A major goal of this conference is to establish consensus objectives, standardized technologies, and common resources that will promote continued rapid progress. The 24 confirmed speakers are leaders and emerging leaders in Xanthomonas research, plant-pathogen interactions, and related fields. Xanthomonas is rapidly becoming the premier model for understanding functional, regulatory, and evolutionary aspects of plant-bacterial interactions. As Xanthomonas genomics continues to drive advances in fundamental biology, it will similarly drive the development of refined diagnostic, epidemiological, and other tools to prevent and control the many plant diseases members of the genus cause, and potentially other bacterial diseases of plants and even animals. To broaden the impact of the meeting, a white paper stating the conclusions of the roundtable discussions will be disseminated. Travel grants and fee discounts will be offered to facilitate attendance of young scientists, women and underrepresented minorities. All scheduled sessions will include student and postdoctoral speakers.

2009年黄单胞菌基因组学会议将为来自地球仪的研究人员提供一个分享成果和想法的场所。 黄单胞菌属是植物相关细菌中最大和最重要的类群。该属的成员在许多作物和观赏物种以及模式物种如拟南芥、水稻、番茄和蒺藜苜蓿上引起疾病。基因组学是黄单胞菌生物学革命的中心。基因组序列使研究导致更好地了解黄单胞菌信号和效应分子。这些研究与宿主植物基因组研究相结合，正在阐明重要的植物过程。下一代测序技术正在加速发现。本次会议的一个主要目标是建立共识目标、标准化技术和共同资源，以促进持续快速的进展。确认的24位演讲者是黄单胞菌研究，植物-病原体相互作用及相关领域的领导者和新兴领导者。 黄单胞菌正在迅速成为了解植物-细菌相互作用的功能，调节和进化方面的首要模型。随着黄单胞菌基因组学继续推动基础生物学的进步，它将同样推动精细诊断、流行病学和其他工具的发展，以预防和控制该属的许多植物疾病成员，以及植物甚至动物的潜在其他细菌疾病。为了扩大会议的影响，将分发一份白色文件，说明圆桌讨论会的结论。 将提供旅费赠款和费用折扣，以便利青年科学家、妇女和代表人数不足的少数群体出席会议。 所有预定的会议将包括学生和博士后发言人。
