This project will support attendance by early-career scientists at the Keystone Symposia on RNA Silencing in Plants to be held in Keystone, CO on February 17-22, 2015. The format of the meeting is a combination of talks and posters, which will promote scientific exchange in both formal and informal settings. There will be ample opportunity for sharing latest research results and for exploring collaborative possibilities.The field of RNA silencing is fast-moving and many new developments have arisen since the last conference on this topic was held in 2010. This conference will present the latest research in this area through sessions that include: small RNA biogenesis and stability, RNA silencing and germ cell fate, RNA-dependent chromatin modification, transcriptional epigenetic inheritance, chromosomal RNA silencing, RNA signaling, DNA methylation and demethylation, and novel biological functions of noncoding RNA. The conference will be forward-looking with many potential applications in plant breeding and biotechnology.

该项目将支持早期职业科学家参加将于2015年2月17日至22日在科罗拉多州Keystone举行的Keystone Symposia on RNA Silencing in Plants。 会议的形式是讲座和海报相结合，这将促进正式和非正式场合的科学交流。 本次会议将有大量的机会分享最新的研究成果，并探讨合作的可能性。RNA沉默领域发展迅速，自2010年举行的上一次会议以来，出现了许多新的发展。 本次会议将通过会议介绍这一领域的最新研究，包括：小RNA生物发生和稳定性，RNA沉默和生殖细胞的命运，RNA依赖的染色质修饰，转录表观遗传遗传，染色体RNA沉默，RNA信号，DNA甲基化和去甲基化，以及非编码RNA的新生物学功能。 会议将具有前瞻性，在植物育种和生物技术方面有许多潜在的应用。
