This project will use molecular tools to detect and identify new chemical signals, known as butenolides, that regulate the growth and development of bacteria and plants. This project will use innovative, interdisciplinary techniques to discover where these butenolide signals come from, and how both bacteria and plants detect them. Expected outcomes of this project include a greater understanding of how plants use butenolides to cope with stress such as drought or salinity, and the design of new technologies for manipulating the growth of both plants and bacteria. The long-term benefits of this work should include fresh approaches for enhancing plant performance under sub-optimal conditions.

该项目将使用分子工具来检测和识别新的化学信号，即丁烯内酯，它调节细菌和植物的生长和发育。该项目将使用创新的跨学科技术来发现这些丁烯内酯信号来自哪里，以及细菌和植物如何检测到它们。该项目的预期成果包括更好地了解植物如何利用丁烯内酯来应对干旱或盐碱等胁迫，以及设计新的技术来控制植物和细菌的生长。这项工作的长期好处应该包括在次优条件下提高植物性能的新方法。
