Since 2003, the Australian wheat crop has been threatened by a continuing stripe rust epidemic, which has required an additional production expense of at least $100 million per annum in fungicides. This Australian National University (ANU) - Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) joint proposal aims to exploit the next-generation genome sequencing and associated bioinformatic and proteomic methods which are poised to revolutionise biology to investigate the wheat-fungus interaction. We will develop new effective approaches for environmentally benign stripe rust control based on new knowledge about how this fungus causes disease and avoids the wheat's immune surveillance system.

自2003年以来，澳大利亚小麦作物一直受到持续的条锈病流行的威胁，每年需要至少1亿澳元的额外生产费用用于杀菌剂。澳大利亚国立大学 (ANU) - 联邦科学与工业研究组织 (CSIRO) 的联合提案旨在利用下一代基因组测序以及相关的生物信息学和蛋白质组学方法，这些方法有望彻底改变生物学，以研究小麦与真菌的相互作用。我们将根据有关这种真菌如何引起疾病并避开小麦免疫监视系统的新知识，开发新的有效方法来控制对环境无害的条锈病。
