Wild Plant Pathosystems is a biennial conference that began in Olomouc, Czech Republic, in 2013. It was subsequently hosted by the University of Helsinki in Finland and then by institutions in Frankfurt and Kiel, Germany.
The conference usually covers diverse topics related to wild plant pathosystems, with sessions on Population Genetics, Comparative Genomics, and the Ecology of all wild pathosystems, from viruses to fungi.
The 4th International Conference on "Wild Plant Pathosystems" was held in Kiel from July 8th to 10th, 2024. Following the conference, the idea emerged to establish a community where researchers can access the most relevant information about the leading groups in this field.
