This project seeks to improve agricultural productivity by engineering novel pathways to bypass photorespiration, a process that limits plant growth. By enhancing photosynthetic efficiency, it aims to significantly increase crop yields.
For a new green revolution to feed the continually increasing population, agriculture productivity will have to be significantly improved.
Photorespiration represents a big challenge in this respect, because it dissipates energy and leads to the futile loss of CO2, thereby limiting plant growth yield.
Implementing an efficient metabolic bypass for photorespiration can therefore increase the photosynthetic efficiency of many cultivated crops.
Several such routes were previously proposed.
