Human life would be impossible without plants. They provide food, clothing, shelter, medicines, and many other goods and services. Plant sciences and crop improvements have already had a major impact on food security and human quality of life. Plant genomics has a critical role to play in meeting 21st century challenges in agriculture, energy, environmental stewardship, human health, and more.
