Our final presentation today has been given by Giuseppe Cannizzaro from University of Catania focused on the sweet orange pangenome.

Yesterday was an intense first day at ACYR! Inspiring talks by María Gracia Luigi Sierra from University of Copenhagen and Stephan Wenkel from Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC), short communications on genomics, and a scientific contest with Agrisera! Ready for a second round today 🤝✨

The second day of the 5th edition of ACYR is opened with the Plant Responses to Stress session inaugurated by our keynote speaker Dr. Purificación Lisón from IBMCP - Instituto de Biología Molecular y Celular, Valencia. She's gonna shed light on the role of volatile organic compounds as tomato defence against bacteria.

The first brief communication in this session has been delivered by Joel Ayet from CRAG focused on Metacaspase substrates in plant programme cell death.

Elisenda Feixes-Prats from CRAG has presented the second brief talk showing her discoveries on alternative respiratory pathways in tomato.

This session has been closed by Irene Villar from CRAG sharing her research in viral infections focused on NPC1.

We are thrilled to announce our special talk in this 5th edition of ACYR! Myriam Rivera from Biomics is sharing her experience and shedding light on the different career options through her talk titled "A 'fake' job: scientific comics and other alternatives to academia"!

The interdisciplinary session of today is opened by the brief talk of Sergio Garcia-Carbonell from CRAG and talking about the regulation of ethylene and respiration during melon fruit ripening.

The second short communication is delivered by Luca Morelli (Ex CRAG PhD student) currently in University of Southern Denmark. He explained the prenyltransferase metabolism in P. tricornutum.

After lunch break, we attend to our last keynote speaker Dr. Prof. Krysztof Wabnik (CBPG, Spain) and his astonishing research focus on engineering synthetic phytohormone perception and signaling circuits in plant applications.

After the lunch break, we had a talk from our last keynote speaker Dr. Prof. Krysztof Wabnik from CBGP. His astonishing research focuses on engineering synthetic phytohormone perception and signaling circuits in plant applications.

The short communications session has started with Albert Muñoz-Blanxer from @CRAGENOMICA explaining the effects of drought and cold stress on cell wall expression in maize.

Continuing with Plant synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, Vanessa Reyes-Loaiza from @CRAGENOMCIA has presented her discoveries in the biotechnological potential of suberin.

Concluding the V edition of ACYR, Noemi La Monaca (Institute of Plant Science, Italy) has shared her findings in novel plant “CYS-NDP” substrates.

ACYR has officially come to an end, and what an incredible journey! 🙌 From inspiring talks to unforgettable connections, today we had Purificación Lisón from IBMCP - Instituto de Biología Molecular y Celular, Krysztof Wabnik from CBGP and Miriam Rivera, short talks and many scientific posters. Until next time! 👋
