Amity University, Uttar Pradesh is pleased to announce an International Conference on Perspectives in Phyllosphere Biology, to be held at Amity University, Uttar Pradesh, Noida Campus from February 15-17, 2012. The meeting is aimed to bring scientists and students from areas of aerobiology, plant anatomy, bacteriology, entomology, environmental biology, meteorology, biochemistry, molecular biology, recombinant DNA technology, plant pathology, biological control, mycology and plant physiology. The conference shall be a platform for scientists from multidisciplinary areas to have brain-storming interactions on issues of crop production, plant health, microbial epidemiology, soil health, environment, healthcare, and bio-waste management which are of global concern. The conference shall emphasise on the future potential of phyllosphere microbes influencing the physiology and function of the most important organ of the plant, the leaf.
Broad Topics:
- Phyllosphere colonizers and biological control.
- Human pathogens on phyllosphere
- Biofilms
- Genomics and proteomics of phyllosphere
- Phyllosphere colonization in extreme environments
- Non - microbial colonizers of phyllosphere
- Microbial and non-microbial interaction in phyllosphere
- Phyllosphere modeling
