Int'l Symposium on Asian Plant Diversity and Systematics

From the conference website:

"Asia has an incredibly high diversity of plants. The flora of temperate Asia, e.g. China, Korea and Japan, comprises the largest number of species when compared with all other temperate regions of the world, and the tropical Asian flora is the most species-rich. The plant diversity of Asia is an ideal focus for evolutionary studies, biogeographical analysis, informatics, phylogenetics and systematics. This symposium aims to review current research on various aspects of Asian plant diversity, with emphasis on the use of modern approaches and techniques. The symposium will include six symposium sessions and one poster session."

Venue: National Museum of Japanese History, Sakura, Chiba Prefecture, Japan

Date: July 29 to August 2, 2004
