Plant genomics has direct benefit to crop improvement, especially as focussed in the applicants' laboratories. Thus, the Australian agri-food sector will benefit substantially from the acceleration in plant functional genomics that will arise from the installation of the robotics equipment described in the current application, by both underpinning more applied research and also being used directly in crop improvement programs such as are based at the Waite Campus. The outputs will include crops with increased tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, a reduced dependence on chemical inputs such as fertilisers and improved food quality, with consequent benefits to the environment and human health and nutrition.

植物基因组学对作物改良有直接的好处，特别是在申请人的实验室中。因此，澳大利亚农业食品部门将从植物功能基因组学的加速发展中受益匪浅，这将从当前应用程序中描述的机器人设备的安装中产生，既支持更多的应用研究，也直接用于作物改良项目，如韦特校区。这些产出将包括提高对生物和非生物胁迫的耐受性的作物，减少对化肥等化学投入的依赖，提高粮食质量，从而对环境和人类健康和营养有益。
