Where is the road to bio-water-saving for the globe?
The First International Conference on the Theory and Practices in Bio-water-saving (ICTPB) was held from May 21 to 25, 2006 in Beijing, China. This indicated that the work related to this hot topic on the globe has been paid more attention to. Most progress in this field has been presented from near 300 participating people worldwide, who were meeting together to discuss about the theory and practices of water-saving biology and how to serve global agricultural and ecological sustainable development. The work related to bio-water-saving has been involved in different scales and soil-plant root biointerfaces. On the basis of this background and in combination with the work from our laboratory and the center, we provided some ideas for global bio-water-saving in this paper, sharing the achievement in this field and advocating true bio-water-saving for the world and promoting the pace of global bio-water-saving.
