Cereal Functional Genomics Centre

Describing the structure, function, biosynthesis and agroindustrial uses of plant cell walls , particularly those from cereals (barley, wheat and rice).

Victorian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics

The VCPFG provides researchers with the latest platform technologies required in plant functional genomics to benefit the AgriFood sector .

Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics

The ACPFG provides researchers with the latest platform technologies required in plant functional genomics to benefit the AgriFood sector .

Self Incompatibility Program

Studying the molecular and cellular biology of plant breeding systems, that is the systems leading to seed formation in plants.

Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are abundant cell wall proteoglycans found in all plants that have been implicated in regulating key roles in plant growth and development. We are using biochemical, genetic and "omics" approaches to determine the function of this complex class of molecules.
