The Plant Microbiome Symposium will provide an exciting meeting ground for scientists with diverse backgrounds in microbial ecology, plant-microbe interactions, molecular biology, chemistry and bioinformatics.
The meeting in Amsterdam will consist of five sessions – spermosphere, rhizosphere, phyllosphere, endosphere, emerging topics - covering the most important aspects of plant microbiome research. The meeting will be relatively small with a maximum of around 200 participants, allowing ample time for discussions and interactions.

- Matthieu Barret, INRA Angers, France
- Gabriele Berg, Technical University of Graz, Austria
- Michael Bonkowski, University of Cologne, Germany
- Harro Bouwmeester, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands
