2013 APS-MSA Joint Meeting On behalf of The American Phytopathological Society (APS) and The Mycological Society of America (MSA), we are thrilled to welcome you to Austin, Texas, U.S.A., for the 2013 APS-MSA Joint Meeting. This year’s joint meeting offers a unique opportunity for our two premier biological science associations to share the latest advances, innovations, and discoveries with one another and explore new ways to collaborate. In today’s ever-changing scientific world, embracing this spirit of discovery and collaboration has never been more important for our science. We hope throughout the course of this year’s meeting that you will make the most of this time together to discuss critical issues in our science, network with your peers, and discover new methods and ideas. This year’s multidisciplinary scientific program is an exciting one, offering something for everyone with nearly 1,100 abstracts accepted, more than 45 technical sessions, nearly 25 special sessions, five field trips, multiple workshops and leadership opportunities, two plenary sessions (new this year!), and MSA’s John Karling Lecture to choose from. Explore the science and get involved! Networking opportunities, socials, and committee meetings offer unlimited opportunities for the exchange of ideas and discussion, promoting future collaborations, partnerships, and global connections. Thank you for joining us at this year’s joint meeting. We are so glad you are here!

New Program Book Look, Again!

Mike Boehm, APS President Mary Berbee, MSA President

As the Program Committee chair, it is my great pleasure to welcome you and thank you for joining us at the 2013 APS-MSA Joint Meeting. They say that everything is bigger in Texas, and this year’s scientific program is no exception, offering an extensive array of scientific sessions and special events dedicated to the latest research and technological advances in plant pathology. Thanks to our partnership with The Mycological Society of America (MSA), you can also expect an extra infusion of mycological science as well.

You asked, we listened, and this year we have a new program book look, taking the best features from the program guide and the program resource book from the last 3 years and combining them into one more-streamlined, four-color program book. We hope you find this format a convenient way to navigate the meeting. Also, check out the mobile app as a complete meeting resource guide.

This year’s special sessions have been carefully selected to represent the interests of APS and MSA members and feature both hot topics and traditional topics in our science, such as food safety and biosecurity, cell biology and plant symbiosis, the world of fungi, and much more. Matched with an equally compelling variety of technical sessions, ranging from plant disease management to fungal molecular systematics and evolution to virus-host interactions, this year’s stellar scientific program brings you face to face with the best and brightest scientists in our field. There are several new features this year too, bringing more science and technology to attendees, including live streaming for the Opening General Session and both plenary sessions, PhytoFilms: APS’s plant pathology-related film showcase, and complimentary web access to all recorded conference presentations after the meeting’s conclusion. While not entirely new, our popular meeting app is back and better than ever, with enhanced features to keep you organized and help you capitalize on all the meeting has to offer. In closing, I would like to extend a sincere thank you to the members of the APS-MSA Joint Meeting Program Board and to APS staff for their dedication and hard work over the past year in helping to make this meeting possible. Thanks are also due to the presenters, exhibitors, supporters, and the many volunteers for their contributions. Welcome to Austin and enjoy the meeting! George Abawi, APS Program Chair and President-Elect 1

The American Phytopathological Society (APS) is the premier society dedicated to high-quality, innovative plant pathology research. APS is driven by a distinctive community of scientists, whose energy and commitment ensure the global advancement of this critical science. Members belong to receive cutting-edge scientific information and the best networking opportunities. Find out more at www. apsnet.org. The Mycological Society of America (MSA) was founded in 1932 and is a scientific society dedicated to advancing the science of mycology—the study of fungi of all kinds, including mushrooms, molds, truffles, yeasts, lichens, plant pathogens, and medically important fungi. U.S. Food Waste Challenge On June 4, 2013 the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), in collaboration with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) launched the U.S. Food Waste Challenge, calling on others across the food chain—including producer groups, processors, manufacturers, retailers, communities, and other government agencies − to join the effort to reduce, recover, and recycle food waste. APS supports this effort by working with the hotels and convention centers to donate food from APS meetings to food shelves in the local area.

Safety Tips

Procedures in Case of a Fire

Do not travel alone—stay in groups and travel in well-lit areas. Remove name badges when outside the hotel or Convention Center unless you are participating in a meeting event. • Do not give your room number out to anyone you do not know and avoid giving out your room number in conversations where strangers may hear you talking. • Bolt your hotel room door and only open it when you know who is on the other side. (Note: Hotel personnel wear uniforms and have identification badges. If in doubt, call hotel security to verify an employee’s identity.) • Do not leave your door ajar if you are going down the hall for ice. Someone may enter when you are not looking. • Know where the stairs are located in case of a fire (do not use elevators). Also count the number of doors to the nearest exit in case you cannot see in a smoke-filled hallway. • Valuables, airline tickets, and money should be kept in a hotel safety deposit box or in a room safe, if available.

• Try to leave the hotel as quickly as possible. If you cannot, stay in your room and call the operator or security to let them know you are in your room. • Put your hand on the room door to see if it is hot before opening it. If it is, do not open it quickly. Open it just a crack to see what is on the other side and be prepared to slam it shut quickly if necessary. • If you leave the room, take your room key with you! Shut your room door to keep smoke out. You may have to return if the exit is blocked. Remember the way back to your room as you go to the exit in case you need to return. • If necessary, drop to your knees to avoid smoke. Tie a wet towel around your nose and mouth to act as a smoke filter. Fold it into a triangle and put the corner in your mouth. • Do not take the elevator when you smell smoke or if you know that there is a fire in the building.
