February 25-26, 1999 - Paris - FRANCE
New molecular tools coming from the genome analysis (mapping, sequencing, mutagenesis, DNA
chips.) now allow the use of a large amount of information.
AGROGENE 7th seminar is organised as a meeting place around talks about genomics and new
molecular tools of worldwide scientists :
* Perspectives,
* Techniques,
* Bioinformatics,
* Applications.
Besides the scientific talks, the schedule reserves a large place for discussions. In
parallele, an exhibition will present some of the latest equipments and services.
