项目摘要

Knowledge transfer from fundamental plant science to in-field crop growth represents a major challenge in the development of new crop varieties. Demonstrating that genetic variants with demonstrable benefits under lab conditions will still have those benefits when grown under field conditions is difficult, typically requiring multi-year assessment of new crop varieties in field trials. Simultaneously, there is also a pressing need to accelerate the development of new crop varieties and management strategies, to address the grand challenges of feeding 9-10 billion people by the middle of the century and net zero food production at least a decade before that. We will address these interlinked problems by the establishment of a world-leading facility that will accelerate the translation of lab-based research to the farm and farm-based research to the lab by providing the capability to mirror, in real-time, fluctuating light and temperature conditions at the University of Leeds Farm and field sites, anywhere in the world. The platform will also link to developing UoL, national and international initiatives to create digital twins of agricultural and natural landscape systems and provide the means to test future climate scenarios by varying elements of the physical environment such as temperature, rainfall and CO2 levels, either individually or in combination. This facility will close the translation gap between lab and field for the development of new crop germplasm, by allowing us to demonstrate that new germplasm is 'farm ready' in a lab environment, and by accelerating the testing of new varieties through single-parameter testing. This facility will also have a wider impact on the development of crop varieties, by establishing a technological blueprint and methodologies for off-farm crop testing.

从基础植物科学到田间作物生长的知识转移是开发新作物品种的一个重大挑战。要证明在实验室条件下具有明显益处的遗传变异在大田条件下种植时仍将具有这些益处是困难的，通常需要在田间试验中对新作物品种进行多年评估。与此同时，还迫切需要加快开发新的作物品种和管理战略，应对到本世纪中叶养活90亿至100亿人以及至少在10年前实现粮食净生产零的重大挑战。我们将通过建立一个世界领先的设施来解决这些相互关联的问题，该设施将通过提供实时反映世界任何地方利兹大学农场和田间地点波动的光和温度条件的能力，加快基于实验室的研究向农场和基于农场的研究向实验室的转化。该平台还将与开发UOL、国家和国际倡议联系起来，以创建农业和自然景观系统的数字孪生兄弟，并提供通过单独或组合改变物理环境要素(如温度、降雨量和二氧化碳水平)来测试未来气候情景的手段。这一设施将缩小实验室和田间之间开发新作物种质的转换差距，使我们能够在实验室环境中证明新种质已准备就绪，并通过单参数测试加快新品种的测试。这一机制还将通过建立非农业作物试验的技术蓝图和方法，对作物品种的发展产生更广泛的影响。
