Dear Sir/Madam:
The Institute of Wood Science and Technology, Bengaluru, is organizing a National Conference on Tree Improvement Research in India: Current Trends and Future Prospects, during February 2nd and 3rd, 2017.
Considering the importance and necessity of tree improvement in India’s forestry research, the major objective of this conference is to bring together forest geneticists, breeders, scientists, managers, professional foresters and provide platform to discuss critical issues, challenges and opportunities in tree improvement research activities in India both from conservation and utilization perspective.
The conference scope includes all aspects of tree improvement under the following themes:
· Status of Tree Improvement
· Propagation Techniques in Tree Improvement
· Wood Quality Improvement
· Challenges in Clonal Forestry
· Biotechnology in Tree Improvement
· Genetic Diversity and Conservation
We cordially invite you to submit abstract(s) for oral and poster presentation.
With Kind Regards
Dr. Arun Kumar A. N.

Colleagues:
A two years post doc position in population genomics is available at UMR BIOGECO. Starting date as soon as possible or as agreed upon. The general goal of the research will be to conduct genome wide exploration of evolutionary changes that occurred in recent times in European white oaks. Investigations will be conducted on whole genome resequencing data of extant populations sampled along geographic gradients or known historical trajectories. The aim will be to disentangle changes associated to demographic events, admixture with other related species, and natural selection. Special emphasis will be given to the detection of evolutionary changes over short time scales (last 3-4 centuries). This research is part of a larger ERC project investigating rates of genomic and phenotypic changes based on allochronic and synchronic approaches (http://www.treepeace.fr/)
