The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) was awarded a $622,375 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. Through this award, UCSD will conduct collaborative research to develop integrated mechanistic predictions of ecological and evolutionary responses to increasing aridity across the range of the iconic California poppy plant species. UCSD researchers will employ multiple approaches including field...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $352,942 supports research into the ecological and evolutionary responses of the iconic California poppy to increasing aridity across its range from 2023 to 2027. The University of Connecticut, as prime awardee, will conduct field observations, greenhouse experiments, population genetics analyses, and species distribution modeling to improve predictions of species persistence under climate change. Researchers will study genetic variation in...
The National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems awarded $206,971 to the University of California, Merced under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The four-year project grant will support collaborative research to harness adaptive genetic variation in drought resistance strategies to manage plant populations under climate change. Researchers will characterize how genetic variation acts through regulatory networks to adaptively tune organismal...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation supports research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: BEE: INTEGRATING EVOLUTIONARY GENETICS AND POPULATION ECOLOGY TO DETECT CONTEMPORARY ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE ACROSS A SPECIES RANGE" being conducted by the University of California, Merced from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2025. The $216,783 in funding is provided under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to increase scientific knowledge and understanding...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $500,611 provides funding from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 to support research into the mechanisms of altitudinal range expansion by plant species under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The University Enterprises Corporation at California State University, San Bernardino will analyze historical and contemporary plant samples to elucidate patterns of adaptation that have allowed the model species Arabidopsis...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program grant, awarded to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside, provides $806,156 to support a research project exploring the mechanisms and repeatability of speciation with gene flow in dune sunflowers. The project aims to uncover how and why assortative mating evolves between sunflower ecotypes, whether parallel evolution leads to parallel speciation, and how structural variants facilitate parallel...
This $874,361 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at the University of Oregon to investigate how plant-pollinator communities in California have changed over the past 50 years. The key objectives are to: (1) quantify changes in plant and pollinator communities over time, (2) determine which species interactions make them vulnerable to environmental changes, and (3) engage the public and students in pollinator...
This $442,310 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology supports a 5-year field research study on the Scarlet Monkeyflower (Mimulus cardinalis), a plant species found across varied climates in western North America. The research aims to understand how different climates influence the survival, growth, and reproduction of this plant species, and how this affects population persistence in the face of climate change. The study involves...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant, awarded to Scripps College on January 1, 2025 for $344,805, will evaluate the effects of weather conditions on plant populations in coastal California. The research aims to analyze long-term data on plant survival, growth, and reproduction to compare different statistical modeling methods for predicting how climate change impacts, such as increased drought, will affect plant communities. The project will...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
