AUTHOR INFORMATION
Oral Presentations
With the exception of a few longer invited talks, attendees should count on 15-20 minutes for their oral presentations including a couple of minutes for questions. Poster presentations are substituted by short oral presentations. Short oral presentations will be 5 minutes long and will include a maximum of 5 slides. Questions will be asked at the end of a session rather than at the end of each presentation. Two sessions for short talks are scheduled; priority for short talks will be given to students who are not giving a full presentation, followed by attendees who are not given a long talk, and finally short talks may be used as a second presentation by attendees who already give a full talk.
When submitting abstracts for both long and short talks, attendees need to select the focus area of their presentation. Please include first and second best selections among the following focus areas:
1 - Systematics, taxonomy, and phylogeography
2 - Ecology
3 - Aetiology and epidemiology
4 - Population genetics
5 - Genomics and plant-pathogen interactions
6- Disease management and control
7- New reports, diagnostics, and research applications of diagnostic methods
Abstracts
Abstracts should not exceed 1,400 characters, including title, authors and all publication information. Abstracts need to be sent to Dr. Paolo Gonthier by emailing paolo.gonthier@unito.it no later than April 30th, 2007. Emails need to include IUFRO ABSTRACT in the reference box. The conference organizers will try to accommodate everybody, but some long talks may be transformed into short, if needed.
Extended Abstracts
The conference proceedings will not feature full papers, but rather extended abstracts. Please follow the Plant Disease guidelines (http://www.apsnet.org/pd/submit.asp) for style and format details. Short presentations (ex-posters) will not exceed 3166 characters, including title, authors, all publication information, and a maximum of four references. A maximum of two items, between tables and figures, can be added to the script. Figures and/or tables, including legends, should be formatted to fit into one third of a page, maximum.
Long presentations will not exceed 6322 characters, including title, authors, all publication information, and a maximum of eight references. A maximum of four items, between tables and figures, can be added to the script. Figures and/or tables, including legends, should be formatted to fit into two thirds of one page, maximum.
Deadline for submitting the extended abstracts is August 7th; extended abstracts not submitted by that date will not be included in the proceedings. Before submitting your extended abstract, please ensure with the organizers it has been approved for a long presentation. Extended abstracts should be sent to Dr. Matteo Garbelotto at iufro07rbr-registration@nature.berkeley.edu and need to include IUFRO EXTENDED ABSTRACT in the reference box.
