- 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...
- 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 awarded a $898,475 Project Grant to Michigan State University under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) for the period of September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2026. The grant funds collaborative research to study the impact of the fungal microbiome in metal tolerance and soil biogeochemical transformations. The Biological Sciences program aims to advance the field and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increased knowledge...
- This $119,880 federal Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) program supports a predoctoral research project to analyze the potential benefits to soil health of reintroducing native arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in prairie restorations on post-agricultural lands. The research will examine soil structure, nutrients, the AM fungal community composition, and...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research titled "The Buried Solution for Agricultural Resilience: Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi" from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2023. This award 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 increasing knowledge and enhancing understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Funds will support basic research examining the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in agricultural resilience, with the work taking place in Berkeley, California. The two-year award period and funding amount indicate this grant likely supports one or more postdoctoral researchers conducting the proposed research project.
