Prof. Dr. Dragana Miladinovi\u0107<\/b> and Dr. Aleksandra Radanovi\u0107<\/b> attended the Fifth Congress “AAB PlantEd: Agricultural Biotechnologies in the Era of Genome Editing”<\/a> and the meeting within the bilateral project with Turkey titled \u201eDevelopment of CRISPR-mediated resistance to fungal diseases in sunflower\u2014SUNFLOWER-GENOMED (project No. 026 02 07), which were held in Samsun (Turkey) from October 30th to November 1st, 2024.<\/p>\n

COST Action PlantEd<\/a> (COST Action CA18111: Genome editing in plants\u2014PlantEd) gathered more than 330 experts from 36 European countries and beyond in the period from 2019 to 2023, with the aim of evaluating the innovation potential and impact of plant genome editing through a multidisciplinary approach.<\/p>\n

The event that was organized is the fifth conference organized within the PlantEd project and was attended by researchers from Turkey, Great Britain, Serbia, Germany, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Canada, etc.<\/p>\n

50 lectures were organized within the conference, 20 of which were delivered by invited speakers. Prof. Dr. Dragana Miladinovi\u0107<\/b> gave a notable lecture entitled “Towards climate-resistant crops: from conventional breeding to new breeding approaches.”<\/p>\n

After the conference, Prof. Dr. Miladinovi\u0107<\/b> and Dr. Radanovi\u0107<\/b>, within the SUNFLOWER-GENOMED bilateral cooperation project, visited the laboratory of Prof. Dr. Kubilay Yildirim<\/b> at the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics of the Ondokuz May\u0131s University. During their visit, members of the Climate Crops Center were introduced to the work of the laboratory and their protocols for the transformation of a gRNA expression cassette. This protocol includes designing the gRNA, digestion of plasmids, insertion of the target sequence, as well as verification of success, but also the introduction of the plasmid into E. coli<\/i><\/em> and later into A. tumefaciens<\/i><\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>
