Call for oral presentations, posters and workshops

In addition to the invited speakers, participants are invited to submit abstracts; the symposium will address the following topics:

• Crop management • Pests & Diseases • Breeding
  
• Physiology • Markets & Marketing

For each topic, three to five oral presentations will be selected from these abstracts, in addition to the ones mentioned in the program. Remaining abstracts may be presented as posters.
Oral presentations on other topics will be considered. In addition to the plenary lectures, two evenings have been reserved for workshops. The workshops are to provide ample opportunity for participants to discuss specific topics informally. These workshops could be ideal for initiating new research co-operation or discussing the results of current research programmes. Participants are invited to propose subjects for workshops. Advance preparation is required. Details (i,e. introduction and discussion points) must be included in the abstracts. Abstracts presented as oral presentations, as posters or in workshops will be published in Acta Horticulturae if accepted by the editor.

Abstracts, posters and workshop information must be in English and will not be translated to be published in Acta Horticulturae. Abstracts (200-300 words) in Microsoft Word files must be received by August 15, 2009 at:
cda@lamolina.edu.pe, info@ias2009peru.com or prankun@terra.com.pe

Completed manuscripts for Acta Horticulturae in Microsoft Word files must be received before October 10, 2009. Manuscripts on CD-ROM or DVD must be turned in during registration.
Papers will be refereed and edited before inclusion in Acta Horticulturae. Details of the requirements for papers and
posters, as well as workshop information, will be provided with notification of acceptance, following receipt of the abstract. Instructions to authors for Acta Horticulturae can be found at: http://www.ishs.org
