The International Plant Molecular Biology Congress series was established in 1985 to reflect and foster the growing development of plant molecular biology. Prior meetings have been held roughly every four years at a variety of excellent venues and were well attended. The four year gap is designed so that the meetings can be an elite venue in which to announce major discoveries in plant molecular biology and with the full knowledge that such discoveries take time. The purposes of the Congress are to (1) apprise the international scientific community of the current status of plant molecular biology; (2) articulate in theory and in practice how basic advances in plant molecular biology can be translated into crop improvement in both the developed and developing worlds; (3) identify and highlight new technical advances that can aid plant research; (4) identify and highlight emerging areas of plant molecular research; and, (5) facilitate collaboration among groups and individuals.The 9th International Congress of Plant Molecular Biology will be held October 25-30, 2009 in St. Louis, Missouri. The participation of graduate students, postdoctoral and beginning investigators will be fostered through travel awards. Funding provided by NSF will be used to broaden participation of young scientists and those from underrepresented groups from the US scientific community. The Congress website provides ready access to all meeting information, including the meeting program, invited speakers, accommodation, abstract submission and registration information (http://www.ipmb2009.org/).

国际植物分子生物学大会系列成立于1985年，旨在反映和促进植物分子生物学的不断发展。以前的会议大约每四年在各种一流的地点举行一次，出席人数很多。四年的间隔是为了使会议能够成为一个精英场所，在那里宣布植物分子生物学的重大发现，并充分认识到这些发现需要时间。大会的目的是（1）向国际科学界通报植物分子生物学的现状;（2）在理论和实践上阐明植物分子生物学的基本进展如何在发达国家和发展中国家转化为作物改良;（3）确定和强调有助于植物研究的新技术进展;第九届国际植物分子生物学大会将于2009年10月25-30日在密苏里州的圣路易斯举行。研究生、博士后和初出茅庐的研究人员的参与将通过旅行奖励得到促进。 NSF提供的资金将用于扩大年轻科学家和来自美国科学界代表性不足的群体的参与。大会网站提供所有会议信息，包括会议日程、受邀发言人、住宿、摘要提交和登记信息（http：//www.ipmb2009.org/）。
