U.S.-Australia Joint Workshop on Heat Tolerance in Temperate Cereals / Kona, Hawaii / February 1994

该奖项将支持10名美国科学家参加将于1994年2月在夏威夷科纳举行的关于温带谷物植物耐热性的讲习班。美国协调员是来自堪萨斯州立大学的Gary Paulsen教授。澳大利亚的组织者是堪培拉CSIRO植物生产研究所的伊恩·沃德劳博士。该研讨会是在美澳合作科学项目下进行的，澳大利亚的支持是通过工业、技术和区域发展部提供的。最近在美国和澳大利亚取得的进展增加了对热冲击和高温对粮食产量和质量的理解。本次研讨会将为分子生物学、植物生理学、植物遗传学和谷物化学等领域的科学家提供一个讨论植物高温胁迫的互动论坛。虽然讲习班主要关注小麦对高温的反应，但其他作物植物和生物系统也将包括在内，因为它们可以帮助更好地了解压力环境产生的机制。

9316914 Paulsen This award will support the participation of ten U.S. scientists to take part in a workshop on heat tolerance in temperate cereal plants to be held at Kona, Hawaii in February 1994. The American coordinator is Prof. Gary Paulsen from Kansas State University. The Australian organizer is Dr. Ian Wardlaw of the CSIRO Institute of Plant Production in Canberra. The workshop is being conducted under the U.S.-Australia Cooperative Science Program and support in Australia is provided through the Department of Industry, Technology and Regional Development (DITARD). Recent advances in both the U.S. and Australia have increased the understanding of heat shock and high temperatures on grain yield and quality. This workshop will provide an interactive forum for scientists in molecular biology, plant physiology, plant genetics and cereal chemistry to discuss high temperature stress in plants. Although the workshop is primarily concerned with the response of wheat to high temperatures, other crop plants and biological systems will be included where they can assist in better understanding the mechanisms which result from stressful environments.
