W elcome to <strong>the</strong><br />
APS CentenniAl Meeting!<br />
We are thrilled to be here in Minneapolis-St. Paul to celebrate<br />
The <strong>American</strong> <strong>Phytopathological</strong> <strong>Society</strong> and honored to have a<br />
record number of past APS presidents and leaders here to help us<br />
commemorate our Centennial.<br />
The 2008 APS Centennial Meeting highlights <strong>the</strong> key developments<br />
and discoveries of our first 100 years and offers a dynamic look into<br />
<strong>the</strong> future of our science. You will have many remarkable opportunities<br />
over <strong>the</strong> next several days to participate in technical, societal, and<br />
social activities. We encourage you to take full advantage of your<br />
time here. Get involved on every level – attend social ga<strong>the</strong>rings and<br />
networking events, visit historical and commemorative displays, meet<br />
<strong>the</strong> new generation of plant pathologists and researchers at <strong>the</strong> technical<br />
<strong>program</strong>, and participate in active and lively discussion with world-renowned scientists from our past,<br />
present, and future.<br />
This year’s <strong>program</strong> highlights historical and celebratory Centennial sessions with an expanded plenary<br />
session and a closing plenary luncheon featuring special guest speaker Dr. Lowell Catlett’s highly<br />
entertaining take on Tomorrow’s Agriculture – Six Trends You Can’t Afford to Miss! In addition, an<br />
informative technical <strong>program</strong> features symposia, over 350 oral and poster presentations, special flashand-dash<br />
presentations, and time with poster authors for discussion. There are more abstracts than last<br />
year, plus 27 special sessions covering today’s most interesting and relevant topics, including aflatoxins;<br />
biocontrol in organic crops; education, technology, and international collaboration in plant pathology;<br />
food security; new products and services; and much more.<br />
I would be remiss if I did not thank everyone for <strong>the</strong>ir contributions and willingness to work toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />
in order to mark <strong>the</strong> occasion of APS’s first 100 years with this memorable tribute. Special kudos go to<br />
<strong>the</strong> Centennial Planning Committee, <strong>the</strong> many volunteers who donated to <strong>the</strong> historical pieces, and<br />
<strong>the</strong> Scientific Program Board (SPB) for <strong>the</strong>ir tireless efforts in forging all of <strong>the</strong> contributions into a<br />
<strong>program</strong>.<br />
Finally, this annual meeting represents a unique opportunity for us to come toge<strong>the</strong>r, to share <strong>the</strong><br />
work we are all doing individually and around <strong>the</strong> world, to learn from each o<strong>the</strong>r in a stimulating and<br />
challenging environment, and to celebrate all that went on before we were here. We are extremely proud<br />
of what we’ve become and <strong>the</strong> potential that exists for plant pathology thanks to <strong>the</strong> contributions of<br />
APS and its members.<br />

Safety tips<br />
• Do not travel alone – stay in groups and travel in well-lit<br />
areas. Remove name badges when outside <strong>the</strong> hotels<br />
and convention center unless you are participating in a<br />
meeting event.<br />
• Do not give your room number out to anyone you do<br />
not know and avoid giving out your room number in<br />
conversations where strangers may hear you talking.<br />
• Bolt your hotel room door and only open when you<br />
know who is on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side. (Note: hotel personnel<br />
wear uniforms and have identification badges. If<br />
in doubt, call hotel security to verify an employee’s<br />
identity.)<br />
• Do not leave your door ajar if you are going down <strong>the</strong><br />
hall for ice or sodas. Someone may enter when you are<br />
not looking.<br />
• Know where <strong>the</strong> stairs are located in case of fire (do<br />
not use elevators). Also count <strong>the</strong> number of doors to<br />
<strong>the</strong> nearest exit in case you cannot see in a smoke-filled<br />
hallway.<br />
• Valuables, airline tickets, and money should be kept in a<br />
hotel safety deposit box or in a room safe, if available.<br />
procedures in Case of a Hotel Fire<br />
• Try to leave <strong>the</strong> hotel as quickly as possible. If you<br />
cannot, stay in your room and call <strong>the</strong> operator or<br />
security to let <strong>the</strong>m know you are in your room.<br />
• Put your hand on <strong>the</strong> room door to see if it is hot before<br />
opening it. If it is, do not open quickly. Open it just a<br />
crack to see what is on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side and be prepared to<br />
slam it shut quickly if necessary.<br />
• If you leave <strong>the</strong> room, take your room key with you!<br />
Shut your room door to keep smoke out. You may have<br />
to return if <strong>the</strong> exit is blocked. Remember <strong>the</strong> way back<br />
to your room as you go to <strong>the</strong> exit in case you need to<br />
return.<br />
• If necessary, drop to your knees to avoid smoke. Tie<br />
a wet towel around your nose and mouth to act as a<br />
smoke filter. Fold it into a triangle and put <strong>the</strong> corner in<br />
your mouth.<br />
• Do not take <strong>the</strong> elevator when you smell smoke or if<br />
you know that <strong>the</strong>re is a fire in <strong>the</strong> building.<br />
emergency information<br />
Medical emergencies should be communicated to an APS<br />
staff member at <strong>the</strong> Registration Desk or an employee<br />
of <strong>the</strong> hotel where you are staying. In your hotel dial<br />
0 for operator or phone <strong>the</strong> local emergency response<br />
team by dialing 911 and give your exact location. At <strong>the</strong><br />
Minneapolis Convention Center, use any house phone<br />
and dial “0” during an emergency. An Emergency Medical<br />
Technician (EMT) will be available during show hours<br />
at <strong>the</strong> Convention Center. Dialing “0” instead of 911<br />
at <strong>the</strong> Convention Center is <strong>the</strong> quickest way to receive<br />
assistance.<br />

Centennial Sessions<br />
100 Years of The <strong>American</strong> <strong>Phytopathological</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />
Sunday, July 27 • 3:15 – 5:45 p.m. • Auditorium<br />
Over <strong>the</strong> past 100 years, APS has grown into a relevant and<br />
responsive leader in <strong>the</strong> field of plant pathology and has<br />
remained that way through a commitment to high standards<br />
and revolutionary leaders. Speakers will address <strong>the</strong> evolution<br />
of APS as a professional scientific society; <strong>the</strong> growth of<br />
APS as a publisher of journals and <strong>book</strong>s; <strong>the</strong> role of APS in<br />
public service and education; APS leadership/cooperation in<br />
international agriculture and <strong>program</strong>s; and APS leadership in<br />
plant pathology within <strong>the</strong> life sciences.<br />
Plant Pathology in 1908/2008<br />
Monday, July 28 • 8:00 – 9:00 a.m. • 200 DE<br />
Plant pathology has come a long way in <strong>the</strong> century since APS<br />
was founded. Presentations from 1908 on phytobacteriology<br />
and chestnut blight will be followed by 2008 updates on<br />
<strong>the</strong>se two topics to illustrate <strong>the</strong> progress of our science in<br />
<strong>the</strong> last 100 years. All speakers will be plant pathologists and<br />
presentations will be in 1908 costumes and with lantern slides!<br />
Optimizing Opportunities for Everyone in Plant Pathology<br />
Monday, July 28 • 3:15 – 6:15 p.m. • Auditorium<br />
It is more important than ever for our discipline to ensure<br />
opportunities for everyone and APS is taking steps to ensure<br />
that diversity is both valued and rewarded. Be a part of <strong>the</strong><br />
discussion as well-known speakers address <strong>the</strong> history of<br />
women in plant pathology; how <strong>the</strong> quality of science benefits<br />
from diversity; and <strong>the</strong> impact of international scientists on<br />
scientific productivity.<br />
The Future of Plant Pathology<br />
Tuesday, July 29 • 2:45 – 5:45 p.m. • Auditorium<br />
The field of plant pathology is pushing forward with new and<br />
exciting technologies and applications. Powerful genomics<br />
and bioinformatics tools are enabling researchers to examine<br />
interactions among entire microbial communities, and new<br />
high-power computing capabilities are mining and comparing<br />
genomes and proteomes of plant pathogens and <strong>the</strong>ir hosts.<br />
CentenniAl PROgRAM<br />
APS is proud to offer many special activities at this year’s annual meeting<br />
in honor of our Centennial.<br />
Remote-sensing devices are being used to monitor plant<br />
disease epidemics across a wide range of temporal and spatial<br />
scales, and online databases are linking living plant pathogen<br />
culture collections to publicly available morphological and<br />
sequence data. Global food markets are demanding a reliable<br />
production of safe food and feed, and regulatory networks<br />
are poised to rapidly detect and respond to immediate threats<br />
of high-risk plant pathogens. A new “wired” generation of<br />
students needs to be engaged in <strong>the</strong> classroom. Attracting and<br />
retaining <strong>the</strong>se individuals as agricultural professionals is a<br />
crucial discussion that must be explored in order to ensure <strong>the</strong><br />
future of our discipline.<br />
Centennial displays<br />

plenary Sessions<br />
Eight renowned speakers address <strong>the</strong> importance of agriculture<br />
and an efficient and secure food system in improving global<br />
public health. These topics are extremely relevant in today’s<br />
global society and this diverse ga<strong>the</strong>ring of industry leaders will<br />
cover many new and exciting approaches in our discipline.<br />
“Agriculture, Food Security, and Public Health: Global<br />
Issues – Global Solutions”<br />
For global health initiatives to be successful in <strong>the</strong> long term,<br />
<strong>the</strong>re needs to be a secure and affordable safe food and water<br />
system in place. All <strong>the</strong> medicines in <strong>the</strong> world can’t cure<br />
starvation. Agriculture is about producing food, feed, and<br />
fiber. Many factors will impact agriculture in <strong>the</strong> future,<br />
including such things as global climate change, <strong>the</strong> loss in<br />
plant, animal, and microbe genetic diversity (biodiversity),<br />
and <strong>the</strong> ever-increasing demand for water. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand,<br />
many scientific breakthroughs in areas such as transgenic<br />
disease, pest-resistant and stress-resistant plants, transgenic<br />
and conventional biofortified food crops, and plant-derived<br />
pharmaceuticals will potentially have huge positive impacts<br />
on food production and public health. While <strong>the</strong>se have great<br />
potential to help alleviate much of <strong>the</strong> global food and public<br />
health crisis, sadly, many may not be adopted because of <strong>the</strong><br />
political structure in place in countries around <strong>the</strong> world.<br />
Governmental policies also may restrict and actually impede<br />
fur<strong>the</strong>r research into many critical areas of science. These are<br />
monumental issues to be sure, but not insurmountable. They<br />
are global issues and <strong>the</strong>y will require global solutions.<br />

The Centennial Meeting features an expanded version of our traditional plenary session.<br />
7 billion people is nothing short of remarkable. However,<br />
starvation and malnutrition is still rampant throughout much<br />
of <strong>the</strong> world. Global agriculture and, in fact, humanity<br />
itself, faces many new challenges. The increasing decline in<br />
<strong>the</strong> planet’s rich biodiversity is looming large. Global climate<br />
change will negatively impact agriculture in many ways and<br />
<strong>the</strong> conflict between water for agriculture and water for public<br />
health and sanitation continues to get worse in many areas of<br />
<strong>the</strong> world. These are global issues and <strong>the</strong>y will require global<br />
solutions. If <strong>the</strong> developed world is intent upon improving<br />
<strong>the</strong> public health of hundreds of millions, even billions of<br />
people, a revitalization of, and support for, agriculture must<br />
be a vital ‘first step’ in <strong>the</strong> process. What we do as agricultural<br />
scientists is paramount and a big piece of <strong>the</strong> solution. When<br />
agriculture fails, humanity fails. This special Centennial<br />
Plenary Session entitled “Agriculture, Food Security, and<br />
Public Health: Global Issues – Global Solutions” will address<br />
<strong>the</strong> issues discussed above.<br />

“Biodiversity and Agriculture”<br />
Since <strong>the</strong> origin of crop agriculture and animal domestication<br />
starting approximately 10,500 years ago, <strong>the</strong>re has been a<br />
steady erosion of biodiversity throughout <strong>the</strong> world with<br />
some 11% of <strong>the</strong> land surface devoted to crop agriculture<br />
and ano<strong>the</strong>r 20% to pasture on natural lands, most of it<br />
unsustainable. Natural biodiversity has decreased markedly in<br />
<strong>the</strong> face of <strong>the</strong> spread of this intensive land use. Crop diversity,<br />
in contrast, first expanded and is now decreasing in <strong>the</strong> face of<br />
commercial-scale agriculture. Where should we be aiming to<br />
preserve biodiversity for <strong>the</strong> future?<br />

“Agriculture in a Changing Environment”<br />
Agriculture is potentially sensitive to many dimensions of<br />
climate change, through both direct and indirect drivers.<br />
Responses to warming and altered precipitation, <strong>the</strong> best<br />
understood responses, create some winners and some<br />
losers, with <strong>the</strong> fraction of losers expanding with increasing<br />
warming. Indirect responses, from altered pests, weeds,<br />
disease, competition for irrigation water, or competition with<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r land uses, are less well understood, but will likely be<br />
as important, in many settings, as <strong>the</strong> responses to <strong>the</strong> direct<br />
effects. Rapidly increasing demand for biomass energy as an<br />
offset to fossil fuels adds fur<strong>the</strong>r complications to <strong>the</strong> future of<br />
agriculture for food.<br />

“The Global Water Crisis: Balancing Water for Agriculture<br />
and Public Health”<br />
Access to clean drinking water and sanitation is a basic need and<br />
a human right. Unfortunately, half world’s population does not<br />
have access to sanitation; more than one in six people still lack<br />
reliable access to drinking water. This has led to a severe public<br />
health crisis. The problem is particularly acute in <strong>the</strong> developing<br />
world, where more than 70 percent of water withdrawal is used<br />
for irrigation purposes. In addition irrigated agriculture and <strong>the</strong><br />
dominant model of food production contribute substantially<br />
to soil and water contamination. In short, <strong>the</strong> current model of<br />
irrigated agriculture negatively affects public health in myriads<br />
of ways. The challenge we have is that of ensuring a synergy<br />
between drinking water and sanitation needs on <strong>the</strong> one hand<br />
and food production systems on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r. This presentation<br />
will explore both <strong>the</strong> way in which current food production<br />
systems worsen <strong>the</strong> water crisis and <strong>the</strong> possibility of creating<br />
food production systems that are sustainable, meet <strong>the</strong> needs of<br />
<strong>the</strong> water poor, help maintain <strong>the</strong> environmental health, and<br />
contribute toward improving <strong>the</strong> public health.<br />

“Revitalizing Support for, and Impact of, Plant and<br />
Agriculture Sciences”<br />
After decades of decline, real food prices are rising, spurred<br />
dramatically upward by a perfect storm of increased demand,<br />
limitations on supply, and a need to conserve land, water, and<br />
energy to prevent even greater impacts on <strong>the</strong> environment.<br />
The good news is that we have unprecedented scientific and<br />
economic capacity to improve <strong>the</strong> efficiency and productivity<br />
of agriculture - if we reverse <strong>the</strong> long decline in investment<br />
in agricultural science, technology, and development, and<br />
focus more deliberately on useful, beneficial outcomes. The<br />
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has launched a major effort<br />
to support agricultural development, including agricultural<br />
science and technology, but <strong>the</strong> need far surpasses <strong>the</strong><br />
resources of a single foundation. We must achieve a global<br />
commitment to innovation that is proportionate to <strong>the</strong> great<br />
needs and opportunities for improving agriculture. And we<br />
must ensure that <strong>the</strong> fruits of those investments reach all <strong>the</strong><br />
world’s farmers in appropriate and effective ways.<br />

“Biopharming and Plant-Derived Pharmaceuticals”<br />
Although plants have been used for millennia as sources<br />
of medicinal products, it is only in <strong>the</strong> last decade that <strong>the</strong><br />
tools of genetic engineering have been applied to plants to<br />
create a new biomanufacturing system for pharmaceutical<br />
products. Protein drugs, such as monoclonal antibodies,<br />
subunit vaccines, and human enzymes are examples of new<br />
products that can be produced in plants. The status of plant<br />
biotechnology used for pharmaceutical expression in plants,<br />
lead products in <strong>the</strong> pipeline, and relevant regulatory processes<br />
to ensure safety and efficacy of <strong>the</strong>se products will be reviewed.<br />

“Plant Biotechnology and Agriculture: Is There a Role for<br />
Public Sector Scientists?”<br />
Plant virus infections can occur in most crop plants and in<br />
some cases are controlled by specific or non-specific host<br />
genes that confer resistance or tolerance. In cases where genes<br />
for host resistance are not identified, a variety of transgenic<br />
approaches have been demonstrated to be effective in<br />
conferring virus resistance. This lecture will explore <strong>the</strong> role of<br />
selected transgenic technologies in virus disease resistance and<br />
<strong>the</strong> potential to reduce virus diseases and enhance crop yields.<br />

“The Interface of Science and Policy: The Crucial Roles of<br />
Food and Health in Economic Development”<br />
Improved health for <strong>the</strong> entire population, especially those<br />
in deep poverty and/or disenfranchised subpopulations, is<br />
an imperative in every country for individuals to learn, to<br />
contribute to economic growth, and to make decisions that<br />
help control population numbers. The eight U.N. Millennium<br />
Development Goals for 2015 are based on credible science and<br />
feasible technology, broad political agreement with financial<br />
commitments in 2001, and an overall integrated strategy,<br />
complemented by health and agricultural initiatives from <strong>the</strong><br />
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and o<strong>the</strong>rs. Never<strong>the</strong>less, at<br />
this midpoint to 2015, <strong>the</strong>re is a chasm between good science<br />
and lofty goals, on <strong>the</strong> one hand, and real progress, especially<br />
in sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, <strong>the</strong> Middle East, and<br />
North Africa. The main challenges are poor governance,<br />
extreme poverty, growing inequalities even within prosperous<br />
countries, and policy neglect, compounded by inadequate<br />
global investment.<br />

Early plant pathologists rode <strong>the</strong> train, drove early<br />
automobiles, and even rode horses to reach farmers’ fields,<br />
where <strong>the</strong>y spent weeks at a time away from <strong>the</strong> office helping<br />
farmers solve crop disease problems. Just as transportation<br />
methods have improved so have techniques and tools to<br />
diagnose ever-emerging plant diseases. The symposium will<br />
look back at <strong>the</strong> pioneering days of plant pathology and look<br />

Mycology<br />
Collections of plant pathogens have played important roles in<br />
<strong>the</strong> advancement of plant pathology and biology in general,<br />
and our culture collection system has evolved with changing<br />
research needs. Despite that, <strong>the</strong> collection system of plant<br />
pathogens in <strong>the</strong> nation as a whole is fragmented and lacks<br />
of good organization. Now our culture collection system is<br />
at a critical juncture. As stewards of many phytopathogen<br />
collections are at or near retirement, <strong>the</strong> future of those culture<br />
collections is uncertain. This symposium will examine <strong>the</strong><br />
history of our culture collection system, discuss potential<br />
solutions to <strong>the</strong> current problems, and explore <strong>the</strong> prospects of<br />
having a national plant pathogen collection system.<br />

This symposium will cover <strong>the</strong> role of post-translational<br />
modifications in host/pathogen interactions. Protein<br />
modifications such as phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and<br />
ADP-ribosylation are now being studied intensively for <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
role in proper signaling during disease resistance responses.<br />
Recent results discussed in this growing area of research<br />
will expose attendants to what will be an important future<br />
scientific focus of molecular plant-microbe interactions.<br />

Epidemiology has been inherently linked with food security.<br />
As <strong>the</strong> world’s population continues to grow, agricultural<br />
researchers will be faced with <strong>the</strong> important goal of meeting<br />
<strong>the</strong> world’s food demand. Epidemiology is one of <strong>the</strong> areas<br />
that can help contribute to addressing this issue. In order<br />
to continue to improve food security, epidemiologists<br />
need to provide adequate measures of agrosystem (and<br />
ecosystems) performance, in relation with plant health. Also,<br />
epidemiologists need to provide accurate, if not precise,<br />
measurements of <strong>the</strong> efficiency and costs of management that<br />
have many dimensions and units. Finally, epidemiologists<br />
need to be able to generate scenarios for overall management<br />
and thresholds for actions in complex, nonlinear systems.<br />
This special session will examine <strong>the</strong> historical context of food<br />
security and <strong>the</strong> role of epidemiology, highlight <strong>the</strong> current<br />
state of how epidemiological research contributes to food<br />
security, and discuss <strong>the</strong> future needs for epidemiologists to<br />
continue to contribute to food security.<br />

Many new and rapidly changing technologies are available<br />
for characterizing microbial communities in soil. Molecular<br />
biology advances now allow for <strong>the</strong> detection and<br />
characterization of a myriad of soil microbes, including those<br />
considered nonculturable. New statistical approaches permit<br />
a quantitative examination of soil microbial communities.<br />
However, optimization of <strong>the</strong>se emerging technologies and a<br />
comprehensive understanding of <strong>the</strong>ir limitations tend to be<br />
elusive. We propose to organize a symposium highlighting<br />
effective utilization of emerging molecular and statistical<br />
methodologies for examining soil microbial communities.<br />
The speakers will focus on practical challenges, such as 1)<br />
selecting <strong>the</strong> most effective and appropriate methodologies to<br />
examine various types of microbial communities mediating<br />
or influencing soilborne diseases; 2) selecting appropriate<br />
experimental designs, sampling methods, and sample sizes;<br />

The establishment and spread of non-native, invasive forest<br />
pathogens in <strong>the</strong> US during <strong>the</strong> 20th century have changed<br />
forest composition, structure, and function in rural and urban<br />
landscapes. Because recovery from an invasive pathogen is<br />
typically an extremely long-term process, it is especially critical<br />
to incorporate lessons from previous invasions by diverse<br />
pathogens. Case studies covering historical perspectives on what<br />
was done to contain, prevent spread, and mitigate each disease<br />
through <strong>the</strong> century will be presented. This symposium will<br />
focus on lessons learned from historical pathogen invasions to<br />
improve our response to current and future threats.<br />

Late blight of potato occurred in Europe during 1844-46,<br />
causing heavy crop losses, which resulted in <strong>the</strong> famous Irish<br />
famine. In <strong>the</strong> past 160 years, more than 80 Phytophthora<br />
species have been described. Today, virtually every crop is<br />
affected by one or more Phytophthora species. The science<br />
of plant pathology was borne after describing Phytophthora<br />
infestans, <strong>the</strong> causal agent of late blight of potato. This<br />
symposium will focus on reviewing <strong>the</strong> historical significance<br />
of Phytophthora pathogens and will evaluate current and future<br />

This session will provide history on important discoveries on<br />
<strong>the</strong> type III protein secretion system and recent progress on<br />
bacterial type III effectors and <strong>the</strong>ir targets inside plant cells.<br />
Two talks will provide historical perspectives on avr and hrp<br />
genes as well as introduce our current state of knowledge. We<br />
now know that <strong>the</strong> vast majority of bacterial avr genes encode<br />
type III effectors and hrp genes encode a type III protein<br />
secretion system that injects type III effectors into plant cells.<br />
These perspective talks will highlight how avr genes and hrp<br />
genes were independently discovered and how it was discovered<br />
that type III effectors, many of which are encoded by<br />
avr genes, were injected into plant cells by <strong>the</strong> Hrp type III<br />
protein secretion system encoded by hrp genes. The o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
talks will focus on more recent advances in our understanding<br />
of <strong>the</strong> activities of specific type III effectors and <strong>the</strong>ir plant<br />
targets/cofactors and how <strong>the</strong> majority of type III effectors are<br />
apparently targeting <strong>the</strong> plant innate immune system. Highlighting<br />
<strong>the</strong> important molecular and biochemical advances<br />
made in <strong>the</strong> past 20 years, this session will provide insight to<br />
both <strong>the</strong> achievements and challenges that lie ahead in <strong>the</strong><br />
study of bacterial pathogenesis and will provide a breadth of<br />
information fitting of a session held at <strong>the</strong> Centennial APS<br />

Well over 50 fungal genomes have been sequenced and<br />
annotated to date, including those of many plant-pathogenic<br />
fungi. Because of this plethora of genome sequence<br />
information across many fungal taxa, we are now in a position<br />
to not only more fully address and investigate pathogenicity<br />
mechanisms in fungi using functional approaches but also to<br />
look at pathogenicity from an evolutionary perspective. We<br />
are proposing a symposium that highlights <strong>the</strong> most recent<br />
developments/advances in <strong>the</strong> fungal genomics field related<br />
to advances in dissection of pathogenicity. We plan to invite<br />
internationally acclaimed speakers in this exiting area of<br />
molecular plant pathology to discuss <strong>the</strong> current status of <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
respective projects. One particular area of interest is <strong>the</strong> use of<br />
new sequencing platforms and technologies for <strong>the</strong>se projects<br />
and <strong>the</strong> advantages and disadvantages associated with each<br />
approach, including bioinformatics-related issues. Lastly, one<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r area of interest is <strong>the</strong> use of high-throughput functional<br />
approaches coupled with genome sequence information for<br />
identification of pathogenicity determinants in fungi.<br />

Ohio State University-OARDC, Wooster, OH<br />
Sponsoring Committees: Biological Control<br />
A moderated open-forum discussion session (not a<br />
symposium). Moderator and participants will address<br />
questions such as: To what extent do organic farmers currently<br />
depend on cover crops, composts, and green manures<br />
to enhance natural biocontrol? What fraction of organic<br />
growers are turning to biopesticidal inoculants? Under<br />
what circumstances are inoculants and o<strong>the</strong>r augmentative<br />
biocontrol strategies being used? Can we define <strong>the</strong> conditions<br />
under which natural biocontrol processes must be augmented
y inoculation to optimize production efficiency and/or<br />
enhance food quality? And, how does reliance on natural<br />
and augmentative biocontrols vary by crop, regions, and<br />
internationally?<br />

explore effective teaching tools that heighten student academic<br />
engagement and attract a broader audience into <strong>the</strong> discipline.<br />
Active and problem-based learning techniques maintain<br />
interest and relevance throughout a course. Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, wellplaced<br />
technologies and web resources enhance understanding<br />
in a traditional classroom, reach nontraditional students,<br />
and provide a means to encompass more material within a<br />
departmental curriculum. In order to assess <strong>the</strong>ir effectiveness,<br />
teachers must be able to critically evaluate strategies to<br />

The field of plant pathology is pushing forward with new and<br />
exciting technologies and applications. Powerful genomics<br />
and bioinformatics tools are enabling researchers to examine<br />
interactions among entire microbial communities, and new<br />
high-power computing capabilities are mining and comparing<br />
genomes and proteomes of plant pathogens and <strong>the</strong>ir hosts.<br />
Online databases are linking living plant pathogen culture<br />
collections to publicly available morphological and sequence<br />
data. A new ‘wired’ generation of students needs to be amused<br />
58<br />
and entertained in <strong>the</strong> classroom, and we must find unique<br />
ways to attract and retain <strong>the</strong>se individuals as agricultural<br />
professionals.<br />

Sponsoring Committees: Mycotoxicology<br />
Although <strong>the</strong> toxicity of diseased plants to humans has been<br />
recognized for hundreds of years, aflatoxin contamination<br />
remains <strong>the</strong> best-described example of this link. Research<br />
on this toxin ushered in <strong>the</strong> modern era of mycotoxicology,<br />
and aflatoxin remains <strong>the</strong> best-described mycotoxin. It has<br />
been 50 years since aflatoxin was shown to be <strong>the</strong> cause<br />
of <strong>the</strong> mysterious Turkey X disease. It is now recognized<br />
as one of <strong>the</strong> most potent naturally occurring carcinogens<br />
known, and it continues to affect human and animal health<br />
and international trade. The impact of aflatoxins on human<br />
populations in both Asia and Africa is well documented. This<br />
symposium will commemorate <strong>the</strong> near 50 years of research<br />
on aflatoxin and will highlight its toxicity and importance<br />
to developing countries, its well-characterized biosyn<strong>the</strong>tic<br />
pathway, and recent information gleaned from <strong>the</strong> genome<br />
sequence and available DNA microarrays. Also covered will be<br />
a phylogenetic analysis of <strong>the</strong> aflatoxin-producing species of<br />
Aspergillus and <strong>the</strong> successful use of biocontrol techniques to<br />
control this disease.<br />

Plant virology had a profound effect on <strong>the</strong> development of life<br />
science disciplines in <strong>the</strong> past 100 years. From virus purification<br />
to crystallization, to identification of <strong>the</strong> genetic material,<br />
to development of methods of detection, to elucidation of<br />
mechanisms of interaction with <strong>the</strong> host. It is important to<br />
understand that virology as an integral part of plant pathology<br />
made a seminal contribution to <strong>the</strong> development of modern<br />
human society. Myron Brakke was a visionary scientist who<br />
advanced plant virology, and molecular biology as a whole. He<br />
introduced a concept of gradient fractionation and successfully<br />
used it to discover divided genomes in plant viruses. He was<br />
a member of <strong>the</strong> National Academy. This symposium will be<br />
devoted to Myron Brakke and focused on impact <strong>the</strong> plant<br />
virology had on science and society in <strong>the</strong> 20th century, and by<br />
extension on its modern role.
