  • Partnerships in Biocontrol, Biostimulant & Microbiome Congress: USA

8th Partnership in Biocontrol, Biostimulants & Microbiome Congress

This congress will examine case studies across day 1 focusing on new research into identifying and developing agricultural biopesticides and biostimulants. Novel platforms for developing biological products will be discussed as well as updates in biocontrol and biostimulant regulation. Day 2 of this track will focus on the plant microbiome where the symbiotic relationships between microbes and plants will be reviewed through case studies in plant and soil microbiomes as well as bacterial-fungal interactions. Academic and industry leaders will discuss new research concerning the rhizosphere, phyllosphere, and endosphere and the application of plant and soil microbiome research in improving stress resistance, nutrient acquisition, crop yield, and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stress.

This event is collocated with the 11th Plant Genomics & Gene Editing Congress.

New for 2024.

Our Commitment To Sustainability

Global Engage is committed to hosting sustainable meetings.

Event App

We have reduced waste by replacing printed documentation with an app. Make sure you have it downloaded to your devices in time for the meeting.

Catering

You will have some great food choices while you are with us but now, we have worked with the caterer to increase the proportion of plant-based items. We have also built a plan with the venue to avoid waste through how they serve meals and how leftovers are processed.

Travel

An international meeting does involve travel but where it is practical, please consider more sustainable alternatives to flying. The app will also have a discussion space to arrange ride shares.

Poster Presentation and Flash Talks

Whether looking for funding, employment opportunities or simply wanting to share your work with a like-minded and focused group, presenting a poster is an excellent way to join the heart of this meeting.

Poster presentations are actively encouraged at this event and as such registered academic, industry, and start-up delegates are invited to present 1 poster each for free.

New for 2024

The agenda offers two sessions for multiple participants to deliver a Flash Oral Presentation of their posters. This platform is designed to amplify your research, providing a unique opportunity to present your findings to a dedicated audience of industry and academic leaders.
