EXHIBIT AT ICAR 2024

Agrisera is a Swedish company, established in 1985, specialized in antibody production and purification. Agrisera provides off-the-shelf antibodies for plant and algal research, with prompt delivery worldwide, and reactivity to thousands of species. Our products are validated in at least two independent laboratories, and cited in thousands of publications since the year 2000.

Phoenix Bioinformatics is a nonprofit founded in 2013 by the staff of TAIR (The Arabidopsis Information Resource), a curated database of genetic and molecular biology data for A. thaliana that has served the scientific community since 1999. After TAIR’s grant funding expired, Phoenix pioneered a sustainable funding model for this vital resource. Our mission is to help research projects achieve sustainable support using the tools and expertise we developed for TAIR.

We offer novel approach for Arabidopsis gas exchange experiments. Our systems provide comprehensive understanding of plant transpiration, stomatal conductance and photosynthetic activity in various growth conditions. PlantInvent systems will speed up your gas exchange analysis workflow by offering parallel measurements of up to eight intact plants.

BioChambers manufactures plant growth chambers and rooms. We have been serving the Arabidopsis research community for decades, and continue to do so with our short plant and flex chambers and rooms. Please stop by our booth and have a chat with our plant scientist Patrick Friesen (PhD) to talk about sales or science.

PhytoAB INC aim to push the frontiers of agricultural science by developing cutting-edge antibodies that address critical challenges in plant health and crop resilience. Our products have a wide range of applications, including plant science, stress and breeding, pathogen detection, food safety, and customized plant pathogen monitoring for national safety.

The Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre (NASC) and The Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center (ABRC) coordinate activities to collect and distribute seeds and other resources providing a unified and efficient service for the research community. Both centers make stock information available through their web sites and distribute tens of thousands of seed stocks per year.

The Yale Plant Molecular Biology Track offers a unique training and research opportunity for students interested in the plant sciences in the context of a broader education in all modern areas of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. The program seeks to prepare students for careers in academic research, teaching, biotechnology, and other science-related occupations.

The Rapid-Cycling Brassica Collection (RCBC), founded in 1982, breeds and distributes seeds of rapid-cycling varieties of six economically important Brassica species (B. rapa, B. oleracea, B. nigra, B. napus, B. carinata and B. juncea). It is the research division of the Wisconsin Fast Plants Science Education Program at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.

PSI (Photon Systems Instruments) leads in developing cutting-edge instrumentation for studying biological signals in plants and algae. With a legacy of innovation spanning almost 30 years, PSI offers high-end solutions for biological sciences including chlorophyll fluorescence systems and sophisticated controlled environments. Trusted worldwide, PSI empowers scientists worldwide with innovative solutions.

RIKEN BRC is committed to receiving deposition/donation of bioresources from the research community, confirming the authenticity of bioresources by rigorous quality examination, preserving, and distributing them back to the research community. In addition, RIKEN BRC conducts research and development to accelerate active use and application of its bioresources.

The ICAR is the largest annual international scientific conference devoted to Arabidopsis thaliana, the model research flowering plant used by thousands of researchers worldwide. The global community uses this organism in studies ranging from addressing climate change, worldwide agricultural crises, to catalog the incredible chemical diversity in plants potentially useful for biomedicine, and particularly to inform economically important crop species to ensure agricultural sustainability. At ICAR you can meet with leading international plant biologists at the largest annual international conference that focuses on Arabidopsis research, tools, technologies, and techniques.

This year’s conference, in San Diego, California will be the first in California in the meeting’s nearly 60 year history. San Diego is easily accessible by many plant scientists in the US and internationally. San Diego was chosen for its strong local plant biology community, the desirability of the location, and its accessibility for global travel. In addition, San Diego is a biotech hub which increases its attractiveness to global scientists.

The ICARs are notable for featuring cutting-edge research including new technologies and novel tools that will enable their research. We invite you to exhibit at ICAR 2024 if you are a company or organization that provides tools, supplies, equipment, or educational materials to plant researchers. ICAR has also proven to be a highly effective venue for supporting networks and collaboration and is well-known as an important gathering spot for trainees at various career stages.
