Dear colleague,
in a few days the deadline for submitting abstracts for the upcoming IUFRO PWD symposium will end. So I like to remind all of you who have interesting research results in the framework of pine wood nematode, pine wilt disease and the related vectors and are willing to participate at the meeting to sent their abstract using the conference tool on the symposium website http://dpg.phytomedizin.org/de/pwdc2013/.
The topics which will be covered by the symposium are:
. Pine Wood Nemtode (PWN) Biology, Population dynamics, Epidemiology, Modeling
· PWN in international trade, pathways and impacts
· Systematic and diagnostics
· PWN interactions with bacteria and fungi
· Insect Vector
· Pine Wilt Disease management and contingency planning
Choose the "registration" button and you will be linked to the conference tool. Currently we have still enough possibilities for presentations, so I like to inform you that we postponed the deadline for one week to give you the opportunity to submit your papers calmly. So the final deadline will be 7th of July. All the other deadlines will stay as they are. For the first round of abstracts you may only submit a very brief summary of your intended presentation. This will be the basis for the review by the scientific committee. At the end of July you will be informed about the acceptance of your presentation and we will also provide guidance for the abstracts intended to be published as conference proceedings. Additional information are available on the homepage: http://dpg.phytomedizin.org/de/pwdc2013/the-conference/instructions-to-the-….
In the meantime the conference homepage was updated and several additions were made. So there were made special arrangements with two hotels and we reserved 70 rooms: http://dpg.phytomedizin.org/de/pwdc2013/venue/accomodation/. The keyword for the room reservation and special price is "IUFRO". I like to advise you to choose one of the two hotels because the bus transfer to the conference room will only depart from those hotels.
To give the local organizers more time for their work I like to ask you to resister timely, not only because the early bird fee payment is only valid until 31 July 2013. In the framework of paying the conference fee I like to request participants from non European Union countries to pay the registration fee by credit card to avoid additional bank charges which have to be paid by the participant. Thank you for your cooperation.
The organization committee would be grateful if you could share this email with people you think could be interested to participate and especially to those whom you sent the first call. Thank you!
I hope to see you in Braunschweig!
With best regards
for the local organizing board

Subject: June 2014 Colorado: IUFRO Genetics of Five-Needle Pines and Rusts Conf.
Hello,
A joint meeting will be held June 15-20, 2014 in Ft. Collins, Colorado, U.S.A. bringing together scientists working with white pine species (5 needle pines) as well as those working with Rusts of Forest trees. See below for some information on the three groups convening.
This attachment is a First Announcement to those involved in white pine (5 needle pine ) genetics related work and conservation of these species. We are updating our email mailing list – please forward to your colleagues and have them contact us. More detailed information will be included in future announcement, but please get the dates and location on your calendars and begin planning to attend. Also, please see the ‘survey’ at the end of this email (or in the attached announcement) – a reply to Anna or myself would be VERY helpful as we continue planning for this conference.
Please pass the meeting information along to your colleagues interested in this subject (or in the Rusts of forest trees research).
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, 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 (rsniezko(a)fs.fed.us<mailto:rsniezko@fs.fed.us>), Anna Schoettle (aschoettle(a)fs.fed.us<mailto:aschoettle@fs.fed.us>), Richard Hamelin (rhamelin(a)NRCan.gc.ca<mailto:rhamelin@NRCan.gc.ca> ) or David Neale (dbneale(a)ucdavis.edu<mailto:dbneale@ucdavis.edu>) . We are building a mailing list for this meeting, if interested please send your name and email address to Richard Sniezko (rsniezko(a)fs.fed.us<mailto:rsniezko@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/
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/
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/
In North America, a collaborative effort among researchers has begun, starting with a multi-national White Pine Genomic Resource Workshop<http://dendrome.ucdavis.edu/strobusphere/workshop2008.php> 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/) The sugar pine genome will be mostly finished and released to the public before the meeting in June 2014.

Professor Hugh Evans, Forest Research, Aberystwyth, UK
Further trainers to be confirmed.
Training School objectives and outline programme
The Training School is aimed at Early Stage Researchers who have an interest in or are directly involved with detection and/or management of invasive forest pests and pathogens. One of the keys to managing the movement of pests globally is knowledge of pest biology and how the pests are associated with various pathways and, in relation to managing threats, early detection of those pests after they arrive in a new country. This Training School concentrates on how to identify symptoms and life stages of insect pests and tree pathogens in forests and woodland locations and, in support of field diagnosis, how to confirm the initial findings using laboratory diagnostic methods and tools.
The course will, therefore, involve two full days in forest locations near Sarajevo followed by up to two days laboratory diagnostic procedures and seminars on the threats to forests arising from international trade and movement of pests along pathways. Specialists in entomology and pathology will guide the training.
Support
Early Stage Researchers (i.e. up to 8 years after obtaining a higher degree) from COST Countries and near-neighbour COST Countries are eligible for support. This will cover lowest cost economy air or train fares, local travel (not taxis), actual costs of hotel accommodation (estimated to be around €50 per night) and €20 per meal. Transport to forest locations will be provided by the local organiser.
Applications
Please apply to Professor Hugh Evans, Chair of FP1002 by email (hugh.evans(a)forestry.gsi.gov.uk <mailto:hugh.evans@forestry.gsi.gov.uk> ) with a brief CV and short letter of application indicating experience and the reason for wishing to attend the Training School. Applications will be considered immediately and a response provided within 2 days to enable successful candidates to make travel arrangements. We anticipate that around 30 ESRs will attend the Training School, although this number may be adjusted if there is strong demand.

Dear IUFRO RG 7.02 FORPATH researchers:
Do you have studies showing how biodiversity helps to manage high-value
species or how high value timbers help to conserve biodiversity? Below is
an idea for a technical session for the IUFRO 2014 World Congress relating
high value timbers and biodiversity Any suggestions would be most welcome,
including reorientation of this potential session. Collaboration with a
unit of Division 7 on this session would be great. If you would like to
participate in the session, could you please send me a draft title for your
contribution? Please also send this on to anyone else who might be
interested. Please send any ideas by April 20, since session proposals are
due April 30.
**********************************
*How does biodiversity help to manage high-value timber species, and
vice-versa?*
*Valuable timbers, such as many Meliaceae, remain in high demand, casting a
shadow over prospects for these species and their forests. However,
management of high-value timber species may help conserve the biodiversity
of the forests they inhabit. Conversely, biodiversity may contribute to
the health of individual trees and populations of high-value species. This
session seeks to explore positive, reciprocal relationships between
biodiversity and high-value timber species. *
*We aim for a global scope, including tropical and temperate high-value
timbers. Presentations might address: biodiversity and protection of
high-value species from pests and pathogens, the role of plantations in
biodiversity conservation, biodiversity for plantation health, enrichment
planting with high value species to maintain biodiversity via intact forest
instead of land use change, high-value species and the maintenance of
intact forests, use of high value species for habitat rehabilitation and
restoration of biodiversity, AND MORE.*
