Abstract | This project is part of the Cropping Carbon Institute Strategic Programme that aims to build a whole systems understanding of carbon allocation both above- and below-ground to provide the knowledge for achieving an optimal balance between harvestable and sequestered carbon in perennial cropping systems. This project provides underpinning through pursuit of a gene-led approach to identify key QTL for variety improvement and through use of statistics, bioinformatics and process-based modelling to integrate, interpret and instruct the experimental programme. There are 6 Work Packages (WP).
