EPS Theme 4 Symposium “Genome Biology and Gene Regulation”
During the theme 4 symposium, junior and senior researchers present and discuss how the interaction between genes, molecules, and epigenetic mechanisms leads to complex physical traits. For a plant to function optimally, precise gene expression regulation and the inactivation of transposons are essential. The presented research covers diverse disciplines, including genetics, bioinformatics, and plant breeding. Due to this broad scope and the central role of genome data, this field is intimately connected with other biological themes. Learn more about it and join the EPS Theme 4 symposium.
