Abstract/Contents: | "Plant growth and water use are interrelated processes influenced by the genetic control of both plant morphological and biochemical characteristics. Improving plant water use efficiency (WUE) to sustain growth in different environments is an important breeding objective that can improve crop yields and enhance agricultural sustainability. However, genetic improvements of WUE using traditional methods have proven difficult due to low throughput and environmental heterogeneity encountered in field settings. To overcome these limitations we utilizes a high-throughput phenotyping platform to quantify plant size and water use of populations of the C4 species Setaria viridis and Sorghum Bicolor under water availability contrasts. Leveraged the tight environmental control of the system, we collected samples for extensive untargeted metabolomics to understand the biochemical response of the plants. We have used genome wide association analysis to identify loci controlling the hundreds of physiological traits and thousands of physiological traits. We are leveraging pan genome and transcriptome resources to identify candidate genes for these traits to facilitate targeted improvement of water use efficiency." |
