Funded Activity Summary

Plant Phenomics Imaging and Analysis Facility. The Australian plant science community faces a major challenge in being able to comprehensively characterise the performance or phenotype of plants in a high throughput manner necessary for post-genomic era science with model plant species, smart-breeding of crop plants and to assess plant-environment interactions. Our capacity to accurately 'phenotype' either a new mutant or a new variety has fallen behind out capacity to generate novel genetic material. This facility will significantly boost research outputs across a range of disciplines pivotal to Australia's future agricultural plant productivity and environmental sustainability.
