17th International Symposium of CIEC

Plant Nutrient Management Under Stress Conditions - Under the auspices of Prof. Dr. Hany El-Nazer, President of the National Research Centre, Cairo/ Egypt.

The symposium will focus on the effects of biotic and abiotic stress on molecular,biochemical, physiological, , and agronomic parameters of agricultural and horticultural crops with special view to crop productivity, crop quality, nutrient uptake, nutrient use, efficiency and impact on soil quality and environment.

Stress parameters of prime priority

- Nutrient deficiency and toxicity - Heavy metals
- Salinity - Temperature
- Drought - Light
- pH

The following subjects are especially welcomed

o Stress and physiological, biochemical and molecular effects in plants
o Stress and soil chemistry, biology and fertility
o Stress and produce quality
o Stress and tolerance mechanisms
o Stress and agronomic practices with special view to fertilization to
increase tolerance and/or counteract stress

Organized by
o National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt
Project Micronutrients and Plant Nutrition Problems
Fertilization Technology Department
o International Scientific Center of Fertilizers (CIEC)

Co-organizers

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
