About BRASSICA 2025
For several decades, the "Crucifer Genetics" and "Brassica" conference series have brought together scientists and breeders with a common interest in genetics and improvement of cruciferous vegetable and oilseed crops, meeting every two to four years at different international venues to discuss recent research results and developments.
After an interruption due to the Covid19 pandemic, the organisers of Brassica 2025, the 22nd Crucifer Genetics Conference, invite you to Giessen, Germany to revive these important meetings and resume the fruitful exchange and communication among the international crucifer genetics and breeding community.

VENUE & Acommodation
Accommodation
Hotel accommodation in Giessen is convenient and affordable – but LIMITED!
​
We strongly encourage all participants to book accommodation as early as possible, to ensure you get a room near the venue! Look for convenient hotels here.
All conference sessions will be held in the main auditorum (Aula) of Justus Liebig University Giessen (Ludwigsstrasse 23, 35390 Giessen). The small university town of Giessen, located in the centre of Germany, is highly accessible for international travellers via the nearby Frankfurt International Airport (around 1h by train or 45 mins by taxi).​
