Expand on Discussions Reported in New, Open-Access MPMI Whitepaper
A new whitepaper published in Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, entitled “Foundational and Translational Research Opportunities to Improve Plant Health,” offers a detailed accounting of deliberations at a recent workshop focused on the various biotic challenges to maintaining plant health.

This fully open-access paper provides an outline and an accounting of the discussions between Richard W. Michelmore, University of California, Davis; MPMI Editor-in-Chief John M. McDowell; and nearly 40 other researchers at the British Embassy in Washington, DC, in late 2016.

Members are encouraged to view the whitepaper and extend this engaging conversation about the many challenges and solutions for maintaining the quality and productivity of crops to secure food for the rapidly growing human population.

MPMI and the participants invite reader comments about this paper. Visit apsjournals.apsnet.org/page/MPMI-01-17-0010-CR to become part of this important and timely discussion.
