Summary
Developing a multimodal imaging pipeline for antisense technology. Antisense molecules represent a revolutionary drug discovery platform for life science, but to understand their distributions in cells and tissues is challenging. By integrating nanobiotechnology approaches, this project expects to develop and apply innovative imaging workflow to track antisense molecules in cells and tissues with nanoscale precision. Expected outcomes include new knowledge of the trafficking of these molecules a ....Developing a multimodal imaging pipeline for antisense technology. Antisense molecules represent a revolutionary drug discovery platform for life science, but to understand their distributions in cells and tissues is challenging. By integrating nanobiotechnology approaches, this project expects to develop and apply innovative imaging workflow to track antisense molecules in cells and tissues with nanoscale precision. Expected outcomes include new knowledge of the trafficking of these molecules across cells and tissues and refined imaging methods. This project should provide more strategic delivery of antisense molecules to specific cells and tissue, which will have significant downstream economic and social benefits to the Australian community.

Summary
Delivering breeding-oriented genetic tools for cereal disease resistance. This project will focus specifically on delivering the genetic tools to the industry partner to assist its wheat and barley breeders to increase the accuracy and efficiency of incorporating the durable wheat stripe rust disease and barley leaf rust disease resistance into their core germplasm collections, respectively. The expected outcomes will also contribute to filling our knowledge gap in understanding the cereal rust ....Delivering breeding-oriented genetic tools for cereal disease resistance. This project will focus specifically on delivering the genetic tools to the industry partner to assist its wheat and barley breeders to increase the accuracy and efficiency of incorporating the durable wheat stripe rust disease and barley leaf rust disease resistance into their core germplasm collections, respectively. The expected outcomes will also contribute to filling our knowledge gap in understanding the cereal rust innate immune system and benefit other cereal fungal pathosystems. The wide application of the expected outcomes from the proposed project will reduce the utilisation of fungicides and subsequently will subsequently contribute to the resilience of cereal crops and sustainable global food security.Read moreRead less
