This award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology supports a research project at Purdue University to investigate the genetic basis of how organisms adapt to their environment, including the role of non-additive genetic effects. The $198,915 Project Grant, awarded on September 15, 2023, will fund research using a unique set of genetic resources to quantify the contribution of non-additive effects on survival and seed production in the model organism...
This $794,457 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support the development of new genetic analysis tools. The goal is to incorporate molecular and cellular biology knowledge, such as gene expression patterns and regulatory networks, directly into statistical models used to map genes, predict traits, and simulate changes in the genotype-to-phenotype relationships. The research will be conducted using simulated...
This Project Grant award of $520,720 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research to develop new tools for incorporating emerging models of genetics into genetic mapping, prediction, and simulation. The research, conducted by Colorado State University, aims to better integrate molecular and cellular biology knowledge into statistical models used to map genes, predict traits, and simulate changes in the genotype-to-phenotype...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program aims to develop advanced computational tools and methods for analyzing genetic diversity in plants, particularly as a means to understand and address the impacts of climate change. With total funding of $1,346,558 over a 4-year period from October 2024 to September 2028, the project will be conducted by the National Center for Genome Resources (NCGR), a non-profit research institute in...
This $1,999,998 National Science Foundation Project Grant, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research at the University of Washington to advance plant synthetic biology through deciphering the grammar of crop gene regulatory elements. The three-year award beginning March 1, 2023 will apply massively parallel reporter assays and machine learning to characterize tens of thousands of genetic regulatory elements in maize and tomato, including enhancers,...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $953,779 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska to develop innovative data processing and advanced visualization tools for optimizing maize canopy architecture. The goal is to create a "digital twin" of maize plants that can simulate real plant growth and response to the environment. This will allow researchers to experiment with different plant traits and...
This Project Grant award, totaling $738,601, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program. The goal of the grant is to increase crop yield, specifically in soybeans, under conditions of heat stress and drought by enhancing the plants' ability to cool their reproductive organs. The key products and services to be delivered include: Conducting an integrated analysis of soybean plants subjected to various stress conditions, focusing on...
