Agricultural yield and the quality of plant-based products directly depend on the efficacy of a seed to develop into an adult plant, for this plant to thrive under changing conditions, for its organs to grow in size, and for its reproductive organs to develop fruits and new seeds. The proposed program aims at analyzing how individual plant cells divide, how they grow into diverse shapes and how functional tissues are formed. The ultimate goal of this research program is to contribute to our understanding of how the genetic code is translated into tangible structural and functional traits in plants.

农业产量和植物性产品的质量直接取决于种子发育成成年植物的功效、该植物在不断变化的条件下茁壮成长、其器官尺寸的增长以及其生殖器官的发育。水果和新种子。该计划旨在分析单个植物细胞如何分裂，它们如何生长成不同的形状以及功能组织如何形成。这项研究计划的最终目标是帮助我们了解遗传密码如何转化为植物的有形结构和功能性状。
