- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) provides $268,066 from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027 to support collaborative research on tropical plant-pollinator interactions. The project will engage 15 U.S. students, particularly from underrepresented groups, in an 8-week international research program in Colombia to investigate the impacts of climate and landscape changes on plant-pollinator relationships....
- This $431,424 National Science Foundation project grant, awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research at the University of Kentucky to advance understanding of plant diversification processes in the tropical Andes mountains. The research team will develop new genomic analysis software and mathematical models to disentangle the biological and environmental drivers of diversification among four groups of flowering plants endemic to the region. They will...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant award of $396,938, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028, will support a collaborative research project to investigate the genetic basis of complex floral trait adaptation between bee- and hummingbird-pollinated plant species. The research team, led by the University of South Carolina, will use advanced genomics technologies to identify specific DNA differences that underlie the integrated floral...
- This federal Project Grant award of $448,286.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Williams College to understand how plants produce, recognize, and interact with anthranilates - a group of under-investigated secondary metabolites that have been shown to deter herbivores and decrease microbial infections in plants. The research aims to advance the understanding of plant defense mechanisms against herbivores and pathogens,...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $2.99 million project grant to the University of Colorado Boulder under the Biological Sciences (47.074) federal grant program. The award will fund the RAMP - Understanding and Preserving Tropical Biodiversity on a Changing Planet program from August 2022 through July 2026. The program will recruit 36 post-baccalaureate fellows underrepresented in STEM fields for hands-on research experiences at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama....
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) project grant, awarded to the University of Puerto Rico - Rio Piedras Campus, provides $150,000.00 over five years from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2028. The project conducts collaborative research to understand how the timing and success of reproduction in tropical plants varies due to within-year seasonality, multi-year climate cycles, and the effects of climate change. The research takes place at three tropical...
- This $1,714,712 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research to critically evaluate the ecological and functional drivers of polyploid establishment in plants. The project aims to use population-level experiments with a model aquatic species under varied stresses to elucidate the mechanisms that allow polyploid species to thrive, especially in stressful habitats. The research will contribute to understanding the formative...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $249,000 provides funding to Aidan Short for a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of South Carolina. The research, conducted under the sponsorship of Drs. Carolyn Wessinger and John Kelly, will investigate how floral isolation contributes to complex trait evolution and plant speciation. The project aims to 1) estimate the evolutionary history of floral trait genes, 2) analyze genome-wide...
