This $270,241 federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research conducted by Trustees of Dartmouth College to characterize evolutionarily conserved plant signaling modules that underlie organ development. The 5-year project, running from June 2025 through May 2030, will utilize the non-seed plant model Physcomitrium patens and genome editing techniques to map signaling pathways from novel peptides to downstream effectors regulating plant development and growth. The research aims to enhance understanding of how plant cells communicate to coordinate organ formation, with potential impacts on agriculture and food production. In addition to the scientific investigation, the award includes a teaching program in rural high schools and an annual public science fair to engage the next generation of scientists and promote public understanding of plant biology.
