Funded Activity Summary

Determining organellar gene expression in distinct cell types: a missing piece of the puzzle for the transfer of C4 photosynthesis into C3 plants. Enhancing photosynthesis in plants will boost yields in essential food crops, such as rice, and thus offers significant implications for satisfying an increasing global demand for food. This project will investigate the photosynthetic mechanisms that exist in known high performing crops, for application in plants used in adverse climates.
