Objectives
Systematic biology faces
tremendous challenges and opportunities at the
present time. This conference aims at providing
an opportunity for plant systematists and
evolutionary biologists to review the progress,
evaluate the current status, and look into the
future of the field. China hosts enormous plant
diversity that has supported its long history
and continuous advancement in studying plant
systematics. With especially rapid progress made
during the recent years, 2010 comes to be the
time for China to invite colleagues from the
world to discuss the new frontiers of systematic
biology. This would provide an ideal forum for
Chinese and international colleagues to present
research results, exchange ideas, discuss common
interests, develop collaborations, stimulate
young students, and move the field of systematic
biology forward. The conference will include
talks, posters, and open discussions on recent
progress and future directions of the following
areas:
1) Taxonomy, collections, and databases;
2) Phylogenetics, phylogenomics, and the Tree of
Life;
3) Biogeography and phylogeography;
4) Speciation, hybridization, and adaptation;
5) Molecular evolution, evolutionary genetics
and genomics, and Evo-Devo.
