MDPI journals, including Plants, are exhibiting at the Plant & Animal Genome Conference 33 (PAG 33), taking place now through 14 January 2026 at the Town & Country Resort and Conference Center, San Diego, CA, USA.

PAG 33 brings together researchers and professionals working across plant, animal, and comparative genomics, providing a valuable platform for scientific exchange and collaboration.

๐Ÿ‘‰ If you are attending PAG 33, we warmly invite you to visit MDPI at Booth #626.

Our conference representatives will be happy to meet you in person, discuss MDPI journals, and answer any questions you may have regarding submissions, Special Issues, and editorial processes.

We look forward to connecting with you in San Diego!
