1 Global Summit on Plant Science & Plant Physiology March 12-14, 2018 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Theme Increasing Sustainability of Plant Management and Efficiency of Plant Production Systems

2 Cenetri Publishing Group looks forward to welcome all the participants across the Globe to attend Global Summit on Plant Science & Plant Physiology during March 12-14, 2018 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The conference highlights the theme Increasing Sustainability of Plant Management and Efficiency of Plant Production Systems. This Conference aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of plant science and plant physiology. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of plant science. We look forward to seeing you along with thousands of your colleagues from around the globe in Malaysia. Scope and Importance The conference program covers a wide range of topics concerned with the functioning, or physiology, of plants in field of plant science and plant physiology. Fundamental processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, plant nutrition, plant hormone functions, tropisms, nastic movements, photoperiodism, photo morphogenesis, circadian rhythms, environmental stress physiology, seed germination, dormancy and stomata function and transpiration, both parts of plant water relations are studied by plant physiologists. The global plant growth regulators market is expected to grow on account of increased use in modifying plant physiological processes such as stimulating or inhibiting enzyme systems and regulating the plant metabolism. Growing demand for regulating cotton metabolism is expected to have the positive impact on market growth in next six years. Improving textile industry in China, India, Bulgaria, Germany and Turkey are expected to augment the cotton demand, which in turn is expected to drive plant growth regulators market. The export volume to Asian countries and regions, the principal market of TCM export, in 2013 was USD1.98 billion with the year-on-year growth of 29.2%. Asia accounted for 7 positions in the top 10 markets. In addition, also being the traditional market of TCM export, the U.S. and Germany accounted for 2 positions in the top 5 TCM exports, and the two countries mainly demanded botanical drugs and extracts. In 2013, Japanese fell to the second market of TCM exports for the first time. The main reason why Chinese medicinal materials export increased by a larger margin in 2013 was rise in price, varieties whose price-rise were greater than 1-time include pagoda tree flower bud, radix rehmanniae, radix codonopsis, eucommia, etc. The year-on-year growth of export volume of plant extracts in 2012 was 3.1%, the growing rate being the lowest point in the 2 decades; however, the year-on-year growth in 2013 was 21.3%, returning to the normal growth speed after the low ebb.

3 Organizing Committee Members Manjit S. Kang Kansas State University USA Peter Gresshoff University of Queensland Australia Yuan-Ming Zhang Huazhong Agricultural University China Mohd Shukor Nordin, PhD International Islamic University Malaysia Devi Prasad J AMRG- CGG India Zhang Xianlong Huazhong Agricultural University China Abdülrezzak Memon Usak University Turkey R Ratnakar Consultant Agricultural Extension India The export volume of Chinese health care products in 2013 was USD0.25 billion, with the year-on-year growth of 16.2%; the import volume was USD18000, with the year-on-year growth of 24.9%. Fish oil product accounted for the largest proportions both in import and export products. The major product exported to the U.S. was fish oil, accounting for 78.9%; the main health care products exported to Japan were fresh royal jelly and royal jelly powder, royal jelly and its preparations and other bee products, accounting for 95%. As the major export markets of Chinese health care products, the U.S. and Japan markets are also the most important consumer markets of health care products in the world.
