Conference notice
Welcome to SPVI2023

The International Verticillium Symposia (IVS) are meetings held every 3-4 years, organized by the nominated member of the International Verticillium Steering Committee. The 13th IVS is being hosted this year by Huazhong Agriculture University in Wuhan, China. The 1st IVS was held in 1971 in Wye College, Kent UK and the most recent, the 12th, took place Ljubljana, Slovenia in 2016. In between, the IVS were held in various parts of the world. This is the first time for IVS held in Asia.


Due to the eruption of COVID-19, we have not conducted a meeting for almost six years. Enormous progress has been achieved over this period in understanding Verticillium genetics and genomics, fungus epidemiology, disease control and management, host-Verticillium interactions and host resistance and we can undoubtedly anticipate further exciting developments.


Now, we look forward to welcoming you to Wuhan to attend this meeting. Wuhan is one of the biggest cities in China, not only with more than 10 million population, but with more than one million graduate and undergraduate students. It is also famous for its long history with more than 3,000 years and profound culture. The people of Wuhan are very hospitable and you will feel right at home here.


The topics will include but are not limited to the following:
              (1) The pathogen and environment;
              (2) Plant immune and signal regulation;
              (3) Disease control and management;
              (4) Young scientist.
