ACYR

The V edition of ACYR is about to start 🎉We are excited to see you here at @cragenomica! Here you can find the final program for the Congress, hope to see you here these two days!

@agrisera @SemillasFito @Novogene_Europe @NZYTech #Sarstedt @vidrafoc @WerfenOEM @CosmoCaixa

Once again, we would like to thank our sponsors for their contribution and for trusting in the new generations of scientists and in projects that, although they may seem small, are ambitious and are carried out with enthusiasm.

Two days since #ACYR2025 finished and we can only say THANKS to everyone that came, to the keynote speakers for their amazing contribution, to all the participants who presented a poster or oral communication, to our sponsors and to @cragenomica for their support.

ACYR has officially come to an end, and what an incredible journey! 🙌 From inspiring talks to unforgettable connections, today we had Purificación Lisón from @IBMCP, Krysztof Wabnik from @CBGP_Madrid and @miriamriig, short talks and many scientific posters. Until next time! 👋

Concluding the V edition of ACYR, Noemi La Monaca (Institute of Plant Science, Italy) has shared her findings in novel plant “CYS-NDP” substrates.

Yesterday was an intense first day at ACYR! Inspiring talks by María Gracia Luigi Sierra from @uni_copenhagen and Stephan Wenkel from @UmeaPlantSci, short communications on genomics, and a scientific contest with @agrisera! Ready for a second round today 🤝✨

Continuing with Plant synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, Vanessa Reyes-Loaiza from @CRAGENOMCIA has presented her discoveries in the biotechnological potential of suberin.

The short communications session has started with Albert Muñoz-Blanxer from @CRAGENOMICA explaining the effects of drought and cold stress on cell wall expression in maize.

After the lunch break, we had a talk from our last keynote speaker Dr. Prof. Krysztof Wabnik from @CBGP_Madrid. His astonishing research focuses on engineering synthetic phytohormone perception and signaling circuits in plant applications.

After lunch break, we attend to our last keynote speaker Dr. Prof. Krysztof Wabnik (CBPG, Spain) and his astonishing research focus on engineering synthetic phytohormone perception and signaling circuits in plant applications.

The second short communication is delivered by Luca Morelli (Ex @cragenomica PhD student) currently in University of Southern Denmark. He explained the prenyltransferase metabolism in P. tricornutum.

The interdisciplinary session of today is opened by the brief talk of Sergio Garcia-Carbonell from @cragenomica and talking about the regulation of ethylene and respiration during melon fruit ripening.

We are thrilled to announce our special talk in this 5th edition of ACYR! Myriam Rivera from Biomics is sharing her experience and shedding light on the different career options through her talk titled "A 'fake' job: scientific comics and other alternatives to academia"!

This session has been closed by Irene Villar from @cragenomica sharing her research in viral infections focused on NPC1.

Elisenda Feixes-Prats from @cragenomica has presented the second brief talk showing her discoveries on alternative respiratory pathways in tomato.

The first brief communication in this session has been delivered by Joel Ayet from @cragenomica focused on Metacaspase substrates in plant programme cell death.

The second day of the 5th edition of ACYR is opened with the Plant Responses to Stress session inaugurated by our keynote speaker Dr. Purificación Lisón from @IBMCP, Valencia. She's gonna shed light on the role of volatile organic compounds as tomato defence against bacteria.

Our final presentation today has been given by Giuseppe Cannizzaro from University of Catania focused on the sweet orange pangenome.
