- The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $138,000 Project Grant to study how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi impacts pollination and plant fitness in anthropogenically disturbed environments. The grant, provided under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research from August 2021 to July 2023 exploring how the symbiotic relationship between plants and fungi is impacted by human disturbances and influences plant reproduction. The Biological Sciences program aims to...
- This $955,781 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) funds research at Clark University to study the diversity, evolution, and origin of secondary metabolism in commensal microscopic filamentous fungi. The key research activities include: Reconstructing the evolutionary relationships among Basidiobolus fungal species. Exploring how secondary metabolite genes vary across Basidiobolus species and testing whether some genes were acquired...
- 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 University of Utah was awarded a three-year, $755,156 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The grant will fund research from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024 to resolve the phylogeny and uncover drivers of speciation in the evolutionary radiation of porcini mushrooms (Boletaceae). As part of the Biological Sciences program's goal to promote advancement in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise, this research aims to increase scientific knowledge and enhance understanding of major problems in the field through resolving the evolutionary relationships and speciation processes of porcini mushrooms.
