The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $190,295 project grant under the Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College (UVM) to study the climate change responses of the invasive spotted wing drosophila fly (Drosophila suzukii). The 4-year project will quantify the roles of local adaptation, seasonal adaptation, and phenotypic plasticity in the fly's overwintering biology and cold tolerance, using populations from Vermont and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research by Northeastern University to study the climate change responses of the invasive spotted wing drosophila fly, Drosophila suzukii. The $528,593 award, effective from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2027, will quantify the roles of local adaptation, seasonal adaptation, and phenotypic plasticity in the fly's ability to expand its habitat into northern latitudes...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research titled "Predicting How Climate Change Will Impact Insect Adaptation to Host Plant Resistance" from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2023. The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct basic research promoting progress in the biological sciences and strengthening understanding of major problems confronting the nation.

The University of Kentucky Research Foundation was awarded a $180,000 Project Grant from the United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) federal grant program. The grant will fund research from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2026 to investigate the interactions between two invasive fruit fly species, spotted wing drosophila and African fig fly, that impact small berry crop production. The Research...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research examining how climate change impacts microbial symbionts and their interactions with terrestrial organisms, particularly aphids. The $589,012 grant awarded to Drexel University on August 15, 2023 will fund a collaborative research project studying the mechanisms by which temperature changes disrupt protective symbiont relationships, and conversely, how symbionts may...
This award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program, CFDA 47.074, provides $1,335,651 to The University Of Kentucky Research Foundation to conduct research on speciation with gene flow in a pair of pine-feeding insect species. The project aims to understand how some species can maintain genetic differences despite ongoing gene exchange. Key research activities include: Larval diet manipulations and transcriptome analyses to quantify reproductive isolation and...
The University of Alaska Fairbanks received a three-year $511,073 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Emerging Frontiers under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) beginning January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2025. The grant funds an integrative research collaboration to project insect responses to climate change.
