Manipulation of carbon partitioning to enhance the value of sugarcane. This project aims to develop enhanced varieties of sugarcane, a highly efficient crop for capturing carbon in plant biomass. This project will use genomic and metabolomic tools to investigate the biochemical and molecular genetic control of carbon partitioning into the major components of sugarcane biomass; identify key genetic controls of sucrose, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin biosynthesis; and establish strategies for genetic selection of sugarcane genotypes with desirable biomass components. Anticipated outcomes are an optimised industrial sugarcane crops with higher sugar content and other biomass components designed for high value end uses such as bio-energy or bio-material production.

操纵碳分配以提高甘蔗的价值。该项目旨在开发甘蔗的强化品种，甘蔗是一种高效的作物，可以捕获植物生物量中的碳。该项目将利用基因组和代谢学工具研究甘蔗生物量主要成分中碳分配的生化和分子遗传控制；确定蔗糖、纤维素、半纤维素和木质素生物合成的关键遗传控制；并建立具有理想生物量组成的甘蔗基因型的遗传选择策略。预期结果是优化的工业甘蔗作物含糖量和其他生物质成分专为高价值终端用途而设计，例如生物能源或生物材料生产。
