Funded Activity Summary

Pyruvate provision for mitochondrial respiration in plants. This project aims to generate new knowledge about pyruvate provision for respiration in plants as it is a major pathway of carbon loss from plants. It will address specific gaps in knowledge about how pyruvate is provided to mitochondria for respiration, how channelling of pyruvate is achieved between components in this pathway and it will seek to engineering a new pyruvate supply pathway to change respiratory processes in plants. It will develop techniques for analysis of metabolic processes in plants and genetic proof for assumptions of how plant respiration works. Benefits will be training of early career researchers, enhanced international reputation of Australian plant science and new approaches to engineer respiratory rate in plants.
