      The conference aims to provide a comprehensive overview of plant senescence and aging and provoke ample discussion, with an emphasis on understanding of how plant senescence and aging affect plant productivity. It will be structured into eight sessions:    Session 1. Photosynthetic apparatus during leaf senescence  Session 2. Subcellular organelle senescence  Session 3. Organ senescence  Session 4. Regulation of senescence  Session 5. Senescence and stress  Session 6. Senescence, reproduction, and plant productivity  Session 7. Nutrient remobilization and postharvest physiology  Session 8. Phenomics and new approaches (Natural variation and evolution)

      Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Our RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
