POWDERY MILDEW SUMMER SCHOOL 2016

PAPER DISCUSSION SEMINARS

Four seminars will be held to discuss in detail a number of recent papers on powdery mildews. Participants, and especially PhD students and postdocs, should volunteer to present a paper, or more, in approximately 15 to 20 minutes during these seminars. Their PowerPoint presentations will be followed by group discussions. Please mention on the application form your willingness to present one paper from the following list (all published since 2010):
