This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000.00, to be carried out from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, will fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology. The research will focus on quantifying the diversity and climate change response in the Chamaecrista fasciculata-rhizobial symbiosis. The project will leverage the partridge pea plant and its associated rhizobial bacteria to evaluate how climate change impacts plant-microbial interactions, with the goal of understanding the potential for this symbiosis to mitigate the effects of climate change. The research will involve undergraduate students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and high school students to help broaden participation in biology research and academia. The results of this project will be shared with conservation managers of important plant species such as peanuts and beans.
