This is a New Investigator proposal led by Cristal Zuniga. The Long-Term Goal of this proposed project is to improve the economics, productivity, and sustainability of U.S. agriculture by using metabolic models to accelerate the engineering process of crops. Toward this goal, the Objective of this proposed project is to use metabolic models to predict media formulations and light variables that will increase citrus growth rates in two specific steps of the citrus engineering process....
