A new ten-year project will determine the function of all angiosperm genes, necessitating changes in plant biology research. The initiative aims to create a virtual plant model for predictive studies on growth and development.

Area of Science:

  • Plant Biology
  • Genomics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • The completion of the Arabidopsis genome sequence is a precursor to a larger initiative.
  • Understanding angiosperm gene function is a critical next step in plant science.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline a ten-year multinational project focused on determining the function of all angiosperm genes.
  • To introduce the U.S. National Science Foundation's "2010 Project" initiative funding this research.
  • To propose a paradigm shift in plant biology research objectives and approaches.

Main Methods:

  • The project will involve a comprehensive, large-scale functional genomics approach.
  • Development of a computational model of a "virtual plant" is a key methodological goal.

  • Predictive queries will be enabled through this virtual plant model.

    • Main Results:

    • The project aims to functionally characterize all angiosperm genes.
    • It will necessitate significant changes in research selection and approach within the plant biology community.
    • A virtual plant model will be developed for predictive analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • Determining the function of all angiosperm genes is an ambitious but achievable goal.
    • This project will advance our understanding of fundamental plant growth and development mechanisms.
    • The development of a virtual plant model represents a significant advancement in biological research capabilities.
