The aim of this program is to alter shoot accumulation of solutes in cereals by exploiting novel transgenic technology to manipulate processes in specific cell types in the roots. The primary objective is the generation of cereals which have increased tolerance of saline soils. This is clearly of much agricultural significance in Australia. More general outcomes include the generation of plants with altered concentrations of a range of nutrients in both leaves and grain. This will be of wide agricultural and nutritional benefit, as well as providing an understanding of principles underlying the long-distance co-ordination of processes in plants.

该计划的目的是通过开发新的转基因技术来操纵根中特定细胞类型的过程，从而改变谷类作物的地上部溶质积累。其主要目标是培育出对盐碱地耐受性更强的谷物。这在澳大利亚显然具有很大的农业意义。更普遍的结果包括，植物的叶片和籽粒中的一系列营养物质的浓度都发生了变化。这将对农业和营养有广泛的好处，并提供了对植物长距离协调过程背后的原理的理解。
