Global agriculture is facing major challenges to ensure global food security, such as the need to breed high-yielding crops adapted to future climates and the identification of dedicated feedstock crops for biofuel production (biofuel feedstocks). Plant phenomics offers a suite of new technologies to accelerate progress in understanding gene function and environmental responses. This will enable breeders to develop new agricultural germplasm to support future agricultural production. In this review we present plant physiology in an 'omics' perspective, review some of the new high-throughput and high-resolution phenotyping tools and discuss their application to plant biology, functional genomics and crop breeding.
全球农业正面临着确保全球粮食安全的重大挑战,例如需要培育适应未来气候的高产作物,以及确定用于生物燃料生产的专用饲料作物(生物燃料原料)。植物表型组学提供了一系列新技术,可加速对基因功能和环境响应的理解。这将使培育者能够开发新的农业种质资源,以支持未来的农业生产。在这篇综述中,我们从“组学”的角度介绍植物生理学,回顾一些新的高通量和高分辨率表型分析工具,并讨论它们在植物生物学、功能基因组学和作物育种中的应用。
