| Other | On behalf of the Local Organising Committee welcome to Newcastle and the 17th Australasian Plant Pathology Society Conference, an event that marks the 40th (or Ruby) anniversary of the Australasian Plant Pathology Society. It provides us with a good opportunity to reflect on the achievements of our profession over four decades of unprecedented discovery about the nature and management of plant disease. It is also a time to ponder the directions of our profession amidst the challenges posed by emerging and persistent plant diseases, food security, climate change, water shortages, rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, bioterrorism, consumer safety and preferences, and the opportunities presented to agriculture and horticulture by biofuels, phytomedicines and leisure activities. |
