SUMMARY:EPS Theme 1 Symposium “Developmental Biology of Plants” - Nov 2026
DESCRIPTION:EPS Theme 1 Symposium “Developmental Biology of Plants” \n\nJoin the EPS Theme 1 symposium and learn more about the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive plant development from the initial zygote to full maturity. Growth progresses from an embryonic stage within the seed to post-embryonic development\, in which primary and secondary meristems continuously generate new cells that specialize as roots\, stems\, leaves\, and flowers. Ultimately\, this complex process of tissue and organ formation is regulated by a combination of inherited genetic information\, internal chemical signals like growth regulators\, and external environmental factors such as light\, temperature\, and nutrient availability.\n\n\nDate: 19 November 2026 \nTime: 09:00-17:30 \nLocation: Ship van Blaauw \nGeneraal Foulkesweg 72\, \nRegistration: open \nKeynotes:  \n \nSabrina Sabatini\, University of Rome\, Italy \n\nBy exploiting the root apical meristem of Arabidopsis thaliana as a model system\, the aim of this group is to unveil the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of the dynamic equilibrium between cell division and cell differentiation.\n\nMonica Garcia Gomez\, Utrecht University\, The Netherlands \nMonica is assistant Professor affiliated with the Theoretical Biology and Bioinformatics (IBB) and the Experimental and Computational Plant Development (IEB) groups. This combined position enables her research group to employ an integrative computational-experimental approach to delve deeper into the study of plant development. Specifically\, she models plant responses to unfavorable temperature and water conditions (as part of the PlantXR programme)\, and the self-organization of a new stem cell niche during root regeneration. \nProgramme: \n09:30 – 10:00 Registration and coffee \n10:00 – 10:10 Welcome by Viola Willemsen \n10:10 – 10:50 Keynote: Sabrina Sabatini\, University of Rome\, Italy\, \n10:50 – 11:15 Zheng Yun\, Plant Breeding\, Wageningen University & Research\n“StCLE12 peptide signaling regulates vascular development and tuber formation in potato” \n11:15 – 11:45 Break \n11:45 – 12:10 Julia Mars\, Experimental & Computational Plant Development and Plant Stress Resilience\, Utrecht University\n“How do microbes shape suberin patterns in sorghum roots?” \n12:10 – 12:35 Indira Sánchez Bretones\, Laboratory of Cell and Developmental Biology/Plant Developmental Systems\, Wageningen University\n“Unravelling the mechanisms behind inflorescence termination in tomato” \n12:35 – 14:00 Lunch \n14:00 – 14:25 Yuki Hata\, Laboratory of Biochemistry Wageningen University & Research\n“Exploring the evolution of plant apical meristems through fern research” \n14:25 – 14:50 Max Goessens\, Cell and Developmental Biology\, Wageningen University & Research\n“Microbial Volatiles Attenuate Auxin Transport in the Arabidopsis Root to alter Root System Architecture” \n14:50 – 15:20 Break \n15:20 – 15:45 EPS Theme Name discussions \n15:45 – 16:25 Keynote: Monica Garcia Gomez\, Utrecht University\, The Netherlands \n16:25 – 16:35 Closing by Viola Willemsen \n16:35 – 17:30 Borrel
