The second edition of the Carrefour de la sélection maïs (corn crossroads) will be held on the Agro Paris-Saclay campus on May 28 and 29. This event aims to bring together all public and private actors involved in corn breeding in order to take stock and discuss future directions. GQE-Le Moulon is co-organizing this event with the Promaïs association and several of its members will present their research work. This year, 5 sessions are on the program: Genomics and Evolution, Roots and Microbiota, Promaïs Projects, Selecting Varieties and Agroecological Transition. This event will also be an opportunity to pay tribute to our late colleague Peter Rogowsky.
