Betreff: 2013 SORP-FFP Call for Presentations Update
Call for Presentation and Poster Proposals
IUFRO Conference on Forests for People
and
The 2013 National Outdoor Recreation Conference
The response for submitting abstracts for poster and presentation sessions to the IUFRO Conference on Forests for People and the 2013 National Outdoor Recreation Conference has been gratifuying. Ninety-five abstracts have been submitted to date---some to host a larger session and some for individual presentations.
Due to the normal challenges of international communications, we have decided to extend the deadline for abstracts for the IUFRO Conference on Forests for People to January 15, 2013.
The submittal requirements and directions remain the same.

Early Alert (2 Nov 2012)
Upcoming International Meeting – June 2014 in Colorado, USA
A joint international meeting of three groups: IUFRO 2.02.15 (Breeding and Genetic Resources of Five-Needle Pines), IUFRO 7.02.05 (Rusts of Forest Trees) and Strobusphere is being scheduled for June* 2014 in Colorado (USA). This will be the first time these three groups have met together to share research in genetics-pathology of five-needle pines. The conference will feature advances in gene conservation, genomics, rust resistance and biology, evolutionary dynamics and other related topics. There will be some joint sessions as well as concurrent sessions organized by each respective group for other topics of interest.
Visit the websites below for future updates on this meeting, or contact Richard Sniezko ( <mailto:rsniezko@fs.fed.us> rsniezko(a)fs.fed.us) Anna Schoettle ( <mailto:aschoettle@fs.fed.us> aschoettle(a)fs.fed.us) Richard Hamelin ( <mailto:rhamelin@NRCan.gc.ca> rhamelin(a)NRCan.gc.ca; Richard.hamelin(a)ubc.ca) or David Neale ( <mailto:dbneale@ucdavis.edu> dbneale(a)ucdavis.edu) . We are building a mailing list for this meeting, if interested please send your name and email address to Richard Sniezko ( <mailto:rsniezko@fs.fed.us> rsniezko(a)fs.fed.us)
2.02.15 – Breeding and genetic resources of five-needle pines
<http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20200/20215/> http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20200/20215/
Our Working Party on Breeding and Genetic Resources of Five-Needle Pines is concerned with research cooperation and exchange of information on all aspects of genetic research on the five-needle pines. This includes provenance and progeny testing, gene conservation, landscape genomics, breeding, species hybridization, clonal propagation and testing, tissue or cell culture, molecular genetics, and the genetics of host-pathogen interactions, as well as ecology, evolutionary dynamics and management of these species. Increasingly though we are using this knowledge to address issues related to climate change, land use pressure and conservation
7.02.05 – Rusts of forest trees
<http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-7/70000/70200/70205/> http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-7/70000/70200/70205/
Our Working Party aims to bring together scientists and investigators working on tree rusts. Our goal is to foster scientific discussion and exchanges relating to tree rust epidemiology, biology, host-pathogen interactions, resistance, control and management, and genomics. Our working group meets approximately once every 4 years in locations in Europe, North America or Asia. We usually meet in locations that allow us to discuss our scientific findings and have field trips in a friendly and relaxed environment which is conducive to exchanges and debates. We want to place a strong emphasis on participation of young investigators and students, as these meetings provide unique experiences to meet and exchange with the related community.
Strobusphere
<http://dendrome.ucdavis.edu/strobusphere/> http://dendrome.ucdavis.edu/strobusphere/
In North America, a collaborative effort among researchers has begun, starting with a multi-national <http://dendrome.ucdavis.edu/strobusphere/workshop2008.php> White Pine Genomic Resource Workshop held on October 22-23, 2008 at the Dorena Genetic Resource Center in Cottage Grove, OR. The objective of this workshop was to discover and identify research objectives, strengths, scope and resources among the various working agencies. This collaborative effort is designed as a foundation to build wider scientific participation with a scope that spans molecular to landscape models, from host to pathogens and alternative hosts. The Strobusphere working group arose from this 2008 workshop. A notable work in progress: the sugar pine genome sequence is slated for completion in 2013 by PineRefSeq project ( <http://pinegenome.org/pinerefseq/> http://pinegenome.org/pinerefseq/) The sugar pine genome will be mostly finished and released to the public before the meeting in June 2014.
NOTE: there will be some joint sessions as well as concurrent sessions organized by each respective group for other topics of interest
IUFRO: Intenational Union of Forest Research Organizationsn - "the" global network for forest science cooperation
*The dates of the June meeting are tba (be will be the 2nd or 3rd week of June 2014).

Dear colleagues,
More than one year after the meeting “Global change and forest diseases:
new threats, new strategies” (IUFRO WG 7.02.02) held in the Monastery of
Montesclaros, Cantabria (Spain), everything was done. The last step, the
articles selected for the Forest Systems journal
( http://revistas.inia.es/index.php/fs/index ), have been already
published ( http://revistas.inia.es/index.php/fs/issue/current ) as
"free access".
In the web page of the meeting ( www.iufro2011.com ) you will find (1)
the Forest Systems articles as well as the (2) Research Articles and
Extended Abstracts already published in the Journal of Agricultural
Extension and Rural Development
(JAERD)( http://www.academicjournals.org/JAERD/contents/2012%
20cont/14MayConf.htm ), (3) the PDF of the Abstracts Book, and of course
(4) the Montesclaros Declaration.
Currently, the hard copy of the Proceedings is "in press", and will be
sent to the mail address of the participants during the next month.
That's all. No more mails about the Montesclaros IUFRO Meeting! Only to
say "thanks a lot" to all participants, reviewers, members of the
scientific and organising committee... And good luck to Libor, Thomas
and collaborators for the next year.
See you in Brno!!!
All my best,
Julio J. Diez

First IUFRO-FORNESSA Regional Congress
25-29 June 2012, Nairobi, Kenya
CONGRESS REGISTRATION AND INFORMATION
Dear member of the IUFRO network,
Dear friend of IUFRO,
For the first time ever, an IUFRO-FORNESSA Regional Congress & ITTO/AFF
Forest Policy Day on "Forests and Trees: Serving the People of Africa and
the World" is being organized in Nairobi, Kenya on 25-29 June 2012.
This Regional Congress will provide a unique opportunity to stimulate and
enhance scientific cooperation with our colleagues, forest researchers and
organizations in Africa. The overall goal of the Congress is to demonstrate
how forest science is impacting on livelihoods, environmental management and
development in Africa. The Congress will highlight research that puts
relevant information in the hands of forest communities, forest managers,
policy makers, the private sector and civil society.
The Congress will take place at the premises of the World Agroforestry
Centre (ICRAF), United Nations Avenue, Gigiri, 00100 Nairobi, Kenya. An
overview of the Congress Timetable is posted on the website at
http://www.fornis.net/congress/en/homepage, as well as information on the
Congress venue, local logistics, accommodation and the Congress program. All
information is regularly updated with the most recent developments as the
Congress is coming closer.
Do not forget to make your registration before 15 May 2012 through the
Congress website at http://www.fornis.net/congress/en/homepage and pay the
registration fee as described at
http://www.fornis.net/congress/en/registrationfee. Your registration before
the deadline will be essential for arranging local transportation in
Nairobi, which can otherwise not be ensured by the local organizers.
The local Congress organizers and IUFRO Board members are looking forward to
seeing you at the first IUFRO-FORNESSA Regional Congress in Africa and will
be glad to welcome you in Nairobi.

IUFRO Deputy Executive Director
