Plants make starch, sucrose, cell walls (fibre), oil, organic acids, vitamins and other products of great economic and social importance. The partitioning of carbon resources into such products determines crop productivity and quality. This partitioning is strongly influenced by nutrients, water and salinity. The powerful genomics resources of Arabidopsis including the new discipline of metabolomics, will be deployed to understand the regulation of carbon partitioning in leaves and to discover genes that direct partitioning. National research capability will be enhanced and new resources will be generated to breed crops with improved yield potential and product quality under varied environmental conditions.

植物生产淀粉、蔗糖、细胞壁（纤维）、油、有机酸、维生素和其他具有重要经济和社会意义的产品。将碳资源分配到这些产品中决定了作物的生产力和质量。这种分配受到营养物、水和盐度的强烈影响。拟南芥强大的基因组学资源，包括代谢组学的新学科，将被部署来了解叶片中碳分配的调节，并发现直接分配的基因。 将加强国家研究能力，并将产生新的资源，以培育在各种环境条件下具有提高产量潜力和产品质量的作物。
