International conference ACPD 2009
We put a first information about the international
conference Auxins and Cytokinins in Plant Development on the web. It will be
organized by the Institute of Experimental Botany and our laboratory in Prague
in July 2009. Check the ACPD 2009 web.
Just for your information: There have been almost 180 participants from
27 countries from 5 continents last time. 
The talk of Ing. Andrea Hricová, Ph.D.
From our correspondent: May 30, 2008, Prague. Ing. Andrea
Hricová, Ph.D. from the Institute of Plant Genetics and
Biotechnology, Nitra, Slovak Republic, is giving presentation about her
research on the genetic transformation of Amaranthus – a
plant possibly useful for alimentation or as a source of renewable energy.
Another highly cited publication!
In a short period of time we have reached a considerable succes with another paper. The Journal of Chromatography A has classified the publication by
P. Ivanov Dobrev, M. Kaminek: Fast and efficient separation of cytokinins from auxin and abscisic acid and their purification using mixed-mode solid-phase extraction. Journal of Chromatography A, Volume 950, Issue 1–2 (2002), Pages 21–29
among the „Top-50 most cited articles“ as published in Journal of Chromatography A from 2002 to 2007. Congratulations to Petre I. Dobrev and Miroslav Kamínek!
