This project aims to establish a breeding program for Plantago ovata in Australia to provide a reliable supply of high quality, superior psyllium as a key ingredient in the gluten-free food industry, providing benefits to the industrial partner, growers in Australia and consumers. Target traits include better harvest index, reduced seed shattering and identification of lines carrying psyllium with novel properties or whole seeds that can be ground and used as flour that imparts less intense colour changes or effects on loaf structure, and which may be highly suitable for other baked gluten-free products. The fundamental knowledge gained from the genetic and biochemical anlayses of these lines will also broadly benefit seed biology research.

该项目旨在为澳大利亚的卵叶车前（Plantago ovata）建立一个育种计划，以提供可靠的高质量、上级欧车前（psyllium）供应，作为无麸质食品行业的关键成分，为行业合作伙伴、澳大利亚的种植者和消费者带来利益。目标性状包括更好的收获指数，减少种子破碎和识别携带具有新特性的车前子或完整种子的品系，这些种子可以被研磨并用作面粉，其对面包结构的颜色变化或影响不太强烈，并且可能非常适合于其他烘焙的无麸质产品。从这些品系的遗传和生化分析中获得的基础知识也将广泛有益于种子生物学研究。
