About this award

North Carolina State University has been awarded a $298,562 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to examine how the interaction between the circadian clock and gravity is affected under simulated microgravity conditions. Utilizing the Random Positioning Machine, the prime contractor will analyze gravity responses in Arabidopsis plants to support a connection between plant gravity sensing, circadian clock responses, and overall fitness. The sole-source award has a completion date of January 4, 2023 and was issued on July 26, 2018 under an unspecified contract type. No set-aside designation applies to this research grant.

Description

The circadian clock in both plants and animals is an important component of overall fitness. Previous studies of gravity responses in other species and our preliminary analysis in arabidopsis supports a connection between plant gravity sensing and responses and the circadian clock. We will utilize the random positioning machine (RPM) to examine how the interaction between the circadian clock and gravity is affected under simulated microgravity.
