XIII. International Symposium on Grapevine Breeding and Genetics 10.7. until 17.7.2022
The JKI, Institute for Grapevine Breeding Geilweilerhof is proud to host the XIII. International Symposium on Grapevine Breeding and Genetics in 2022.
Back in the 1970s, Prof. Alleweldt, then head of the Institute for Grapevine Breeding Geilweilerhof in Siebeldingen, Germany, initiated the idea of an international conference as a forum for the dynamic field of grapevine breeding at the time. The idea was to initiate a conference series that every four years brings together leading scientists in grapevine genetics and breeding at different winegrowing places around the world.
