11th International Symposium on Root Development
Rooting 2026 is the upcoming edition of a well-established symposium that brings together scientists from diverse fields, including plant developmental biology, agriculture, plant-pathogen interactions, and biotechnology—all united by a common interest in plant roots.
The symposium will focus on root biology, including primary, lateral and adventitious roots, exploring roots as products of genetic regulation and plant-environment interactions.
As the 11th edition of this prestigious series, the event aims to foster the exchange of recent discoveries and innovative ideas, spanning both fundamental research and applied aspects of root induction and development.
