The 6th International Table Grape Symposium held at UC Davis was a great success. Forty oral presentations and 25 posters were presented to an international audience of approximately 300 participants.
University of California Cooperative Extension researchers Matthew Fidelibus, Jennifer Hashim and Stephen Vasquez hosted meeting participants from a dozen nations and US growers from California, Colorado and Idaho. Highlights of the meeting were symposia that focused on the use and benefit of plant growth regulators for improved fruit quality and an overview of California’s public and private table grape and rootstock breeding programs. Articles from both symposia as well as the entire programs oral and poster abstracts can now be found online at 6th International Table Grape Symposium proceedings e-version.
The next meeting is scheduled for Australia in 2013.
