ICAR 2010 - the 21st International Conference on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR 2010)

We are pleased to announce the 21st International Conference on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR 2010) will be held on June 6 ? June 10, 2010 in Yokohama, Japan.
Arabidopsis research has provided many breakthroughs in plant science in the last decade. 2010 will become a memorial year in Arabidopsis research because the international Arabidopsis 2010 project will be terminated. New projects in plant research based on Arabidopsis knowledge will continue beyond 2010 by international cooperation.
The ICAR 2010 will highlight recent advances in Arabidopsis research and its translational research using crops and trees.

Co-Chair:
