SABRAO is a society devoted to basic and practical aspects of plant genetics and breeding research. The SABRAO Journal of Breeding and Genetics is published by the Society and focuses on plant species or topics that are relevant to developing countries in Asia and Oceania. The journal operates on a not-for-profit basis. Scientists from the region are cordially invited to become members.
The Society holds a general assembly approximately every four years, often in association with a kindred society, and through its regional and sectional organizations, and sponsors meetings for special interest groups as the needs and opportunities arise.
