The Congress were carried out under three different sections as field crops, horticultural crops and genetic resources. It was intended that the subjects be kept broad in order to provide opportunity to the science community to present their work as oral presentations or posters. Congress languages were Arabic, English, Russian and Turkish. There was simultaneous translation during the congress at these four languages.

We cordially extend our invitation to you and your colleagues and look forward to welcoming you in Antalya in Second International Plant Breeding Congress in a friendly environment of WOW Kremlin Palace Hotel.
