- This $1,083,670 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will fund research on the spatiotemporal dynamics of plant-mycorrhizal fungal symbioses across the eastern United States. The primary awardee, the University of Tennessee, will investigate how changing global conditions impact the interactions between plants and mycorrhizal fungi, which provide critical nutrient and water exchange. The research will examine spatial and temporal...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,051,699 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to Yale University. The three-year grant, effective August 1, 2023, aims to study the genetic and environmental interactions governing mycoparasitism, the phenomenon where certain fungi attack and parasitize other fungal species. The research will focus on the dynamics of the rhizosphere fungal community, including mycorrhizal fungi that have a symbiotic relationship...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $229,332 project grant to Indiana University for collaborative research titled "ELUCIDATING PLANT AND MYCORRHIZAL FUNGAL RELATIONSHIPS AND CONSEQUENCES ACROSS SPACE AND TIME." The three-year award beginning September 1, 2021 will fund research under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to increase scientific knowledge and understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Specifically, the grant...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $138,000 Project Grant to support postdoctoral research titled "From Genomes to Phenomes: The Rules of Life That Govern Bacterial-Fungal-Plant Symbioses." The grant falls under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of major problems. The grant will fund research from October...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $207,000 Project Grant to support research titled "The Functional Biogeography of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi: Elucidating Cross-Scale Mechanisms that Inform Global Models" from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024. The grant was awarded under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA #47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing scientific knowledge and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2027. The grant supports a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on examining priority effects within and between fungal symbiont guilds associated with a native grass species, Schizachyrium scoparium. The research will manipulate the order of arrival of different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and root endophytic fungi to...
- This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Biological Infrastructure provides $138,000 to fund research titled "How Spatial and Temporal Variation in Environment and Soil Fungal Diversity Shapes Plant Phenotypes." The grant is part of NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of major...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research determining the mechanism that drive assembly in belowground microbial decomposer systems from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023. The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and enhancing understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Most of...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $216,000 Project Grant to support research titled "Spatially Resolving the Cellular Landscape of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis with M. truncatula and D. epigaea" from February 1, 2022 to January 31, 2025. The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and enhance understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Funding will support research at Ithaca, NY to increase scientific knowledge of the symbiotic relationship between plant roots and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The grant will fund spatially-resolved studies of the cellular interactions that underpin this important plant-fungus partnership. Insights gained from this research may help advance understanding of plant nutrient acquisition and stress tolerance.
