Australia depends on plant products for much of its export income and plant diseases are a continual threat to these earnings. New insights into plant disease resistance mechanisms will provide new opportunities to find solutions to disease problems. Often this involves transfer of knowledge gained in simple model plant systems to more complicated crop plant systems. Work on the role of lipid transfer proteins in the tomato model system will advance our knowledge of fundamental disease and disease resistance processes and ultimately enable technological innovations to improve disease resistance, reduce pesticide usage and lower crop production costs.

澳大利亚的大部分出口收入依赖于植物产品，而植物疾病是这些收入的持续威胁。对植物抗病机制的新认识将为寻找疾病问题的解决方案提供新的机会。这通常涉及将在简单的模型植物系统中获得的知识转移到更复杂的作物植物系统。研究脂质转运蛋白在番茄模型系统中的作用将推进我们对基本疾病和抗病过程的认识，并最终实现技术创新，以提高抗病性，减少农药使用量，降低作物生产成本。
