Food production and quality are determined by the varieties of food plants that are used in agriculture. A high quality rice genome sequence became available in 2005. This project will mine the data in the sequence to identify genes associated with key production and quality traits. New technologies and strategies will be developed and applied. The discoveries will be of value for the model crop, rice and for other cereal and food crops. Human health benefits from the availability of technologies to combine desirable nutritional traits and attractiveness to humans. This ensures healthy foods will be produced and consumed.

粮食产量和质量取决于农业中使用的粮食植物的品种。 高质量的水稻基因组序列于 2005 年问世。该项目将挖掘序列中的数据，以确定与关键生产和质量性状相关的基因。 新技术和战略将被开发和应用。这些发现对于模型作物、水稻以及其他谷物和粮食作物具有重要价值。人类健康受益于将理想的营养特性和对人类的吸引力结合起来的技术的可用性。这确保了健康食品的生产和消费。
