- This $158,371 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will fund collaborative research on the integrated dynamics between plants and aphids mediated by above- and below-ground mutualisms in a rapidly warming Rocky Mountain ecosystem. The research aims to: Integrate the direct effects of temperature on aphid development with indirect effects driven by shifts in above- and below-ground ecological interactions. Assess...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $288,060 to Kent State University to study the effects of warming temperatures and biotic interactions on aphid populations in a Rocky Mountain ecosystem. The key objectives are to: (1) integrate the direct effects of temperature on aphid development with indirect effects driven by shifts in above- and belowground interactions, (2) assess local adaptation within plant-aphid...
- 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 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 - Biological Sciences) to the University of Georgia Research Foundation provides $509,821 in funding from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028 to investigate the ecological-evolutionary dynamics between the pea aphid and its parasitoid wasp, Aphidius ervi. The project aims to uncover how the balance between resistant and susceptible pea aphids is maintained, and how agricultural management practices can reduce the risks of...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship to study the impacts of climate change on insect phenotypes, populations, and communities. The research aims to: 1) build a model to estimate how insect traits like body size and developmental timing respond to temperature variation, 2) quantify how these phenotypic changes affect population dynamics, and 3) determine how...
- This $844,511 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Wisconsin-Madison to investigate the ecological-evolutionary dynamics of pea aphids and their parasitoid wasp predator Aphidius ervi. The research aims to understand how the rapid evolution of the agricultural pest pea aphid, which can develop resistance to its natural predators, impacts the maintenance of biodiversity and the ability to control pests...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal project grant award of $919,730 to Auburn University aims to advance scientific understanding of biological invasions by aphids, a group of highly invasive agricultural pests. The key objectives of the project are to: (i) estimate phylogenetic relationships among aphid lineages, (ii) use comparative phylogenetic analyses to shed light on the drivers of aphid invasiveness, and (iii) extend the reach of practical...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $606,102 provides funding from August 1, 2022 through July 31, 2025 to determine the synergistic effects of global warming on fundamental vital rates, fitness, and predation of tropical insect herbivores. The award is made through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support basic biological research that strengthens the nation's scientific enterprise. Specifically, the University of Connecticut will conduct experimental...
- 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.
