Engineering more water-use efficient crops: functional genomics of CO2 fixation during Crassulacean acid metabolism

University of Liverpool Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology

The world is getting hotter and drier due to climate change, and the human population is growing rapidly. Furthermore, it has been predicted that we will need to increase crop yields by 50 - 70 % by 2050 in order to feed the predicted 9 - 10 billion people. Read more
