This activity requests $12.8M in FY2027, 8.7% of project WP-01, up 2.8% on FY2026. The R-2A exhibit describes it across FY2026–FY2027, including what the FY2027 money is planned to buy.

What the FY2027 request buys

Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project WP-01 of PE 0602024E. This is the budget justification's own description of work that has not happened yet — the one thing no other level of the budget carries.

FY2027 planned work

- Complete long term plant growth and stabilization for selected species to support scaling approach. - Complete chemical exposure experiments to identify biochemical, molecular, and physiological patterns associated with exposure of plants to target stressors. - Evaluate plant exposure using multi-omics and external observable measurements. - Determine whether external plant observables provide a distinct, predictable, and scalable indicator of chemical exposure.

FY2026 to FY2027 change

The FY 2027 increase reflects minor program repricing.

Before the request year

FY2026: the year under way

Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.

FY2026 plans — current year

- Initiate plant acquisition, growth, and stabilization for selected species. - Initiate plant chemical exposure experiments to identify biochemical, molecular, and physiological patterns associated with exposure of plants to target stressors. - Perform plant exposure evaluations using multi-omics and external observable measurements. - Develop plant biological process model(s) to understand biochemical, molecular, and physiological patterns associated with exposure of plants to selected stressors.

Money

Three years, and no five-year plan

An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.

This activity is 8.7% of project WP-01's FY2027 request and 3.5% of PE 0602024E's. In the request year the activities under a project sum to it exactly; in the current year they under-cover it in about 9% of cases, so an activity's delta can legitimately exceed its parent's and the two must not be compared row to row.
