The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support a postdoctoral fellowship in biology focused on the evolution of masting as a mechanism for forest resilience under climate change. The 3-year fellowship will fund research to identify genetic variants associated with reproductive traits in two pine species, examine how these variants change over time and terrain in response to temperature gradients, and...
This National Science Foundation award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $127,687 to Warren Wilson College to conduct collaborative research on the role of plant-associated microbes in forest ecosystems from November 2022 to May 2025. The research will explore how tree diversity influences leaf and root microbiome communities, leaf chemistry, insect populations, and ultimately tree productivity. Researchers will leverage a 32-acre tree biodiversity experiment in...
This $372,663 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Integrative Organismal Systems will fund research into drought and cold resistance of northeastern US tree species. The grant is part of the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which supports basic biological research to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise and enhance understanding of major problems.
Specifically, the grant will fund extensive field measurements and a manipulative experiment to...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the ecological implications of whole genome duplication in plants. The $240,000 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will enable the fellow to develop new phylogenetic comparative methods to understand how whole-genome duplication impacts climatic niche dynamics. The research will leverage...
This $414,000 National Science Foundation project grant funds postdoctoral research fellowship activities from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The fellowship will support integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environment and phenotypes. Specifically, the fellow will conduct multiple experiments in defaunated and intact tropical forests in Ecuador to investigate how the...
This $250,579 Project Grant was awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service under the Forest Health Protection program (CFDA 10.680) to evaluate treatments for Beech Leaf Disease at the forest scale. The grant was awarded on December 17, 2024 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York, doing business as SUNY ESF, a non-profit organization that provides research, technical, and educational services to federal agencies. The award supports work to prevent,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides USD 240,000 in funding from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026. The award supports an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology to study the relationship between pollinator thermal performance and limitation in apple production in the Midwestern US. The research project aims to determine which pollinator groups (e.g., honey bees, bumble bees, solitary bees) are best...
This $549,948 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research to identify bioactive compounds produced by fungi that form beneficial mutualisms with loblolly pine trees. The project aims to understand how these fungi balance defending against competitors and supporting their host trees, which is important for the bioeconomy. The research will use a combination of techniques including metabolomics, transcriptomics,...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026 to support research examining the genetic, physiological, and environmental drivers of plant-pollinator niche dynamics across scales of biological organization. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of...
