The 35th Annual Meeting of the Plant Growth Regulation Society of America (PGRSA) will be held at the historic Hotel Whitcomb, San Francisco, California, August 3-7, 2008. The meeting will feature four symposia:New Insights on the Physiological Basis of Fruit Quality. Moderator: Matthew Fidelibus, UC Davis.
