Satellite Meeting: 11th International Powdery Mildew Workshop

Description: The satellite meeting is meant to bring together scientists with an interest in studying powdery mildew and other similar diseases caused by biotrophic fungal pathogens. It is supposed to serve as a platform to exchange and discuss current/new research methods/strategies and recent findings, and to identify new research directions regarding all aspects of interactions of plants with powdery mildew fungi. The scope of research for this satellite meeting covers fungal genomics and mechanisms of fungal pathogenicity as well as plant resistance / susceptibility. The satellite meeting is therefore, of potential interest to a broad audience, ranging from basic to applied science. It may also appeal to researchers with an interest in related pathogens. The international workshop series started in 2011 and meetings have been held at regular intervals (every 1-2 years) and was previously held in the form of IS-MPMI satellite meetings (e.g., 2016 in Portland/US, 2019 in Glasgow/UK and 2023 in Providence/US).
