We aim to define the mechanisms by which a family of cell surface proteoglycans, the arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs), are assembled and contribute to the regulation of plant growth and development using Arabidopsis, a model system amenable to a functional genomics strategy. This will be achieved through the application of bioinformatics for gene discovery and molecular, biochemical and genetics approaches to define gene function. Understanding mechanisms that control plant growth and development will ultimately impact on industries (agriculture, horticulture and forestry) vital to Australia's prosperity.

我们的目标是定义的机制，其中一个家庭的细胞表面蛋白聚糖，阿拉伯半乳聚糖蛋白（AGPs），组装和促进植物生长和发育的调节使用拟南芥，一个模型系统服从功能基因组学策略。 这将通过应用生物信息学进行基因发现以及采用分子、生物化学和遗传学方法确定基因功能来实现。了解控制植物生长和发育的机制将最终影响到对澳大利亚繁荣至关重要的行业（农业，园艺和林业）。
