Updated: 9 months ago
Location: Mount Lawley, WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Deadline: ;

Project Outline:

Genome sequencing of food crops opens new horizons to identify small proteins and peptides with beneficial characteristics for breeding, crop protection and human health. The diversity and the full spectrum within these plants are yet to be explored. The aim of this project is to discover and characterize bioactive peptides in selected food crops building on a combined approach using data mining and proteogenomic approaches.

Project Area: Proteomics

Supervisor(s):  Dr Angela Juhasz and Utpal Bose

Project level: Masters

Funding: Applicant should apply for ECUHDR or RTP Scholarship.
