The National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems awarded a $314,715 Project Grant to President And Fellows Of Harvard College from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "EDGE FGT: Transformation and Genomic Resources to Advance Diverse, Emerging Model Angiosperms" under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074).
The research aims to promote progress in the biological sciences by increasing scientific knowledge and enhancing understanding of major problems. Specifically, the grant will fund development of genomic and genetic transformation resources for emerging plant models to advance comparative and evolutionary studies across flowering plants. Researchers at President And Fellows Of Harvard College will leverage expertise in plant genomics and genetic engineering to generate tools that enable investigation of diverse angiosperms. Outcomes will strengthen the national scientific enterprise by providing resources that facilitate innovative research on a broad range of plant species.
