As many more plant genomes are sequenced, the bottleneck is being able to interrogate and translate this data into applications for crop improvement. This project will develop and apply a population graph database, hosting genome data for the world’s major crops and their wild relatives, allowing the characterisation of gene diversity on an unparalleled scale. Analysis of this data will reveal the presence/absence and sequence diversity for classes of genes for important agronomic traits including disease resistance, flowering time and legume nitrogen fixation which will enable plant breeders to identify and apply novel genes and allelic variants for use in breeding programmes, accelerating the production of improved crop varieties.

由于对更多的植物基因组进行了测序，因此瓶颈能够询问并将这些数据转化为作物改善的应用。该项目将开发和应用人群图数据库，为世界主要农作物及其野生亲戚托管基因组数据，从而使基因多样性的表征无与伦比。对该数据的分析将揭示重要的农艺特征的基因类别的存在/不存在和序列多样性，包括抗病性，开花时间和豆类氮固定，这将使植物育种者能够识别和应用新颖的基因和种皮变体用于繁殖程序，从而加速了改善的作物变化。
