This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences provides $967,423 to fund research titled "Regulation of Nutrient Homeostasis by the CBL-CIPK Calcium Sensor-Kinase Network in Arabidopsis." The research aims to increase scientific understanding of how plants regulate nutrient balance through the CBL-CIPK calcium signaling pathway in the model plant Arabidopsis. The grant supports the three-year period from February 2021 to January...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) project grant, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $115,172 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct collaborative research on soybean's response to phosphate and iron deficiency. The objective is to use quantitative phosphoproteomics to unravel the signaling pathways underlying soybean's sensing and immediate response to these nutrient stresses. This research aims to help develop soybean...
The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley, received a $950,013 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation on January 15, 2021 to fund research understanding the protein composition and dynamics of the nuclear envelope in plants. The research is being conducted under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences) to the University of California, Davis provides $640,474 in funding from May 2025 to April 2028 to develop innovative approaches for engineering plants with improved nitrogen use efficiency. The project aims to deliver programmed plants with predictable root growth responses to nitrogen availability, enabling more efficient uptake and utilization of nitrogen fertilizers. Key objectives include...
The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley, received a $600,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation to conduct research under the Biological Sciences program. The goal of the grant is to advance understanding of major biological problems through basic research projects such as TRTECH-PGR: NSF BSF - Recombining Allelic Diversity via Genome Editing for Dissecting Complex Plant Traits. This project will utilize genome...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $921,054 supports research to develop new biological functions through engineering plant hormone receptors. Led by the Regents of the University of California, Riverside under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the project engineers plant sensors to recognize pharmaceuticals and dietary molecules. It then uses these sensors to design "sentinel cells" that indicate molecule presence through color changes. Specifically, the...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $1,255,705 will support research at the University of Missouri System from August 2022 to July 2025 to advance understanding of autonomous leaf-specific iron deficiency responses in plants. Funded through the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the project aims to identify transcriptional complexes necessary to regulate iron homeostasis in leaves through time-series gene expression analysis, high-throughput DNA-protein and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $608,223 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside (UC Riverside) to investigate the function of ACT domain repeat (ACR) proteins in the metabolism of karrikins and KAI2 ligands in plants. The research aims to understand how these chemical signals regulate plant development and interactions with the environment, which could lead to improvements in crop yields...
This Project Grant award from the Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences of the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at Michigan State University (MSU) to investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating early root growth in plants in response to phosphate (P) deficiency. The key objectives of this $907,847 award, with a period of performance from June 2024 to May 2027, are to: 1) determine the transcriptional and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) is providing $788,825 to The Trustees of Princeton University to advance the basic understanding of the principles underlying the assembly and architecture of pyrenoids - specialized cellular compartments found in certain algae and plants. The project aims to leverage this understanding to build a functional synthetic pyrenoid-based carbon dioxide-concentrating mechanism into the model...
