Reminder - 6th IUFRO 2.09.02 Conference (Tree Vegetative Propagation), 3-8 March, 2024, Rotorua, New Zealand

by jfrancois.trontin＠gmail.com

Dear IUFRO Division 2 and 2.09.02 Members, We would like to kindly remind you of our 6th IUFRO 2.09.02 conference, which will be hosted by Scion in Rotorua, New Zealand, from 3 to 8 March 2024. Dr. Jana Krajňáková and Dr. Henri Baillères as well as their Scion teams are preparing a great scientific and social programme for us! “The might of vegetative propagation for healthy and productive forests to face climate challenges" After some difficult years, Rotorua 2024 is a new IUFRO 2.09.02 opportunity to share your research on vegetative propagation of trees and other woody plants as a primary strategy or in synergy with seed technologies to cope with climate change. For more information, please review our preliminary announcement and related information (including a short article) currently posted on the dedicated <https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20900/20902/activi…> IUFRO 2.09.02 webpage. The conference website will be launched in September. Get prepared to register as early birds and submit your abstract(s)! If not already done, don't forget to approach your preferred funding sources. We would like to offer all the flexibility and support needed to encourage your participation, but organisational constraints remain high in New Zealand and anticipation is our best option! We would be also grateful if you could fill in this short <https://forms.gle/Fh612sSdqGTFbZG99> questionnaire about your willingness to participate in the Rotorua 2024 conference. Thank you to all those who have already done so. This is important information to support your Organizing Committee! We look forward to welcoming many of you to Rotorua in just over 7 months' time for some friendly scientific and social activities in beautiful New Zealand scenery! Paloma Moncaleán, Yong-Wook Kim & Jean-François Trontin IUFRO 2.09.02 Coordinating team For further information on IUFRO, its activities, and the various possibilities of getting involved, see <https://www.iufro.org/events/follow-up-information-for-iufro-event-particip…> here.

Session T3.23 Deadline extended for IUFRO 2024 Abstract submissions

by Williams, Geoffrey (CTR) - FS, OR

Please note the deadline has been extended for the following until June 15 On behalf of IUFRO, International Society of Tropical Foresters, and The Society of American Foresters, we would like to invite you and your colleagues to contribute to the IUFRO World Congress session T3.23 in Stockholm, Sweden, 23-29 June 2024, "Resilience of Forest Biodiversity to Climate Change and Pests: Civic Engagement and Conservation in Seed Banks, Public Gardens, and Wild, Urban, and Agroforestry Landscapes" - if you have already submitted an abstract to this session, please disregard. Please submit your abstracts for this session by Thursday, June 15 on a topic of your choice related to the theme; also, please forward this to interested parties! This session will have talks, flash talks, posters, and hopefully a panel discussion as well. You can have multiple submissions from the same institution. Link to submit: https://www.appinconf.com/kas/Abstract?projectName=iufro2024abstracts Regards, Jill Wagner, Geoff Williams, Denita Hadziabdic-Guerry, Sean Hoban, Lara Salido Abstract submission instructions SESSION: (Search for the session of interest) TITLE: Spell out words, do not use abbreviations. The title or text is not to indicate the country of origin, unless it is pertinent to the topic. AUTHORS: Names and surnames for each author must be provided. Do not include degrees or titles. The presenting author's name will be published in bold. AFFILITATIONS: Each author should be listed by University/Hospital, Department and Country. Please make sure to include this complete information in the Affiliation text box. TEXT: The abstract must be in English and should be a maximum of 300 words, excluding the title. It is the author's responsibility to submit a correct abstract; any errors in spelling, grammar, or scientific fact will be published as typed by the author, if accepted. Poor English may be a cause for rejection. The Programme Committee will accept abstracts for the Scientific Programme (oral or poster presentation) on scientific merit. Session description To conserve biodiversity, multiple approaches can be taken on the ground. This mini-symposium (Panel, Flash-talks & Posters) represents experts who focus on complementary aspects of conservation and reforestation; threat assessment, seed collecting and banking from wild trees, collective action and civic engagement, the roles of public gardens in conserving genetic resources, developing genetic resistance to pests to conserve biodiversity, and the importance of conserving genetic diversity in the face of pests and climate change. Seed is the unit by which biodiversity is propagated, and therefore, protected. There is ever increasing pollination disruption with shifting local climate conditions and more fragmented and degraded native ecosystems. As forests and genetic diversity are lost, so are mother trees for seed collection, in a time when people want to greatly scale reforestation efforts. In addition to potential declines in seed crops, global trade, biodiversity loss, and fragmentation increase the threat of emergent insect and pathogen outbreaks, resulting in local or range-wide extinction of iconic tree species. Therefore, there is a global need for threat assessments, seed collection and banking of native tree species. In the context of the above challenges and solutions, public gardens and arboreta are critical to the resilience of forests and society. In addition to acting as living collections, seed sources, and refugia of tree species, public gardens serve as biodiversity hotspots in cities, and meeting places for public and volunteer conservation efforts and outreach. As sentinels, trees in public gardens can be used to proactively detect emergent disease threats. Through collective action, exchange of information, public engagement, and local expert knowledge, "think global, act local" could be applied to aid proactive efforts to protect forest biodiversity from the next major pests across the world. Local experts and civic ecologists can accomplish this by collecting seed and observing trees in native environments, plantations, public gardens, and urban forests. Breeding or human-directed genetic improvement presents a practical solution for restoration of species that are impacted by emergent pest epidemics, climate change, or other threats. The utility of breeding to protect biodiversity also depends on the prior establishments of seed banks and other germplasm resources. It is critical to generate a prior understanding of the diversity of populations of tree species valued for their ecological, horticultural, or economic and commercial characteristics, the observed or potential effects of threats to those populations, and the role diversity could play in recovery of species.
