Plants are extremely responsive plants that are in constant interaction with the environment. This session will explore plant perception and adaptation to environmental signals like light, temperature, water status, and atmospheric CO₂. Physiological and molecular mechanisms facilitating adaptation to drought, flooding, salinity, and heat/drought will be discussed by experts. The session will also present plant responses to biotic interactions like herbivory and microbial symbioses. We will discuss the function of phenotypic plasticity and epigenetic regulation in plant-environment interactions. Climate change effects, including changes in rainfall and temperature, will be discussed in terms of plant productivity and survival. Case studies will identify crops and wild plants that show considerable resilience. The discussions will focus on the synthesis of ecological, physiological, and genomic approaches. Participants will learn ways to design climate-resilient crops and ecosystem management under shifting conditions.
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.
