This project aims to identify important missing links in the signalling pathways that connect major plant hormones in their control of root architecture, with a focus on the signalling system that helps plants cope with sub-optimal growing conditions. New discoveries in plant hormones will be applied to crops to provide a deeper understanding of root growth responses under sub-optimal conditions, and to maximise plant efficiency. Expected outcomes include a better understanding of signal pathways in roots, improved knowledge about how crops respond to adverse conditions, new knowledge and potential genetic resources for plant industry, and novel ideas about how to improve crop productivity.

该项目旨在确定信号通路中重要的缺失环节，这些信号通路连接了控制根构型的主要植物激素，重点关注帮助植物应对次优生长条件的信号系统。植物激素的新发现将应用于作物，以提供对次优条件下根系生长反应的更深入了解，并最大限度地提高植物效率。预期的结果包括更好地理解根的信号通路，提高对作物如何应对不利条件的认识，为植物产业提供新的知识和潜在的遗传资源，以及关于如何提高作物生产力的新想法。
