Flower development is a vital stage in plant life where reproduction and perpetuation of the species are guaranteed. This session will emphasize the molecular and genetic networks that control the process of changing from vegetative to reproductive growth. The ABC model of flower development, and how MADS-box genes and transcription factors play their roles, will be discussed by the experts. Case studies will investigate floral meristem initiation, determination of organ identity, and symmetry control in a range of plant species. New findings in imaging and molecular biology will be discussed to demonstrate how flowers evolve to respond to environmental cues. The session will also reveal evolutionary insights, highlighting how flower morphology leads to successful pollination. Members will learn about the developmental processes that create floral diversity and how these can be applied in horticulture, crop improvement, and development of improved ornamental plants.
Welcome to Plant Biology Conference 2026, where global researchers, academicians, and ecologists unite to share advancements in plant genetics, physiology, biotechnology, ecology, and sustainable agriculture and conservation practices.
