- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research project to investigate the evolution of specialization in plant-endosymbiont relationships under varying environmental conditions. The $175,511 award to the University of South Alabama will evaluate the partnership between a saltmarsh grass and its fungal partners along a stress gradient, assessing how these associations change in response to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award to St. Mary's College of Maryland provides $171,094 to support a 3-year collaborative research project to investigate the evolution of specialization in plant-endosymbiont responses to varying environmental conditions, particularly salinity stress. The project aims to evaluate the partnership between a saltmarsh grass and its fungal partners along a natural stress gradient, and assess how these...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $199,476 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program to Texas A&M University. The 5-year research project, starting on August 15, 2025 and ending on July 31, 2030, will investigate the impact of climate variability on coastal wetland ecosystems, specifically mangroves and salt marshes, near the geographic limits of mangrove habitats. The research aims to understand the successional pathways of plant...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $1.25 million Project Grant to Texas Tech University under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to fund research from August 2022 to July 2027 defining the mechanisms and consequences of mutualism reorganization in changing environments. The award will support four integrated research aims exploring how plant-fungal mutualisms are reorganized by invasive plant species at multiple scales, from mutualism and population levels to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $371,044 to James Madison University (JMU) supports research on the evolution and ecology of the mutualistic and parasitic relationships between leafflower plants and leafflower moths. The project involves four master's students studying the genetics and diversity of these moths in Texas, the Southeastern U.S., and Puerto Rico. The funding also supports summer research experiences for five...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program provides $322,288 to William Marsh Rice University to conduct collaborative research on host-microbe symbiosis and its effects on plant fitness. The research team will explore how the impacts of fungal symbionts on their grass host plants fluctuate in response to environmental conditions, testing the hypothesis that host-microbe symbioses may confer greater stability compared...
- This $344,201 National Science Foundation project grant supports research into seed-fungal interactions and their influence on tropical tree recruitment. Specifically, the Utah State University-led collaborative effort will examine how seed chemistry impacts susceptibility to fungal infection and pathogenicity. It will also explore how the physical environment and maternal genotype influence fungal community composition and host susceptibility across landscape scales in Panama. Combining...
