Improve Resilience of Industry Sector (LIFE IRIS)
Date du début: 15 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 15 mars 2019,
Background
Extreme weather events related to climate change, which directly affect industrial areas, can be extremely damaging for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In the case of flooding, enterprises face potentially large economic losses (e.g. through stoppages to production and damage to equipment and buildings), while heatwaves increase ener ...

Sensing and integration of signals governing cell polarity and tropism in fungi (FUNGIBRAIN)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
"Cell polarity and directed growth (tropism) are fundamental biological processes. Most fungi are dependent on these processes because they grow as polarised filaments called hyphae, whose growth and developmentare governed by physical and chemical cues from the environment. Such cues include surface-contact, light, nutrients, mating partners, host organisms, or ‘self’ hyphae from within the fung ...

Enhanced plant productivity through control of lifespan (CROPLIFE)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,
The world-wide demand for primary plant products to be used for food, feed and fuel is increasing dramatically. The foreseen climate changes are expected to have a negative impact on plant productivity in addition. Future agriculture urgently needs new crop plant varieties with enhanced and sustainable productivity. To meet this challenge, “CropLife” focuses on leaf lifespan as a major determinant ...

Yeast biodiversity as a source of innovations in food and health (CORNUCOPIA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2015,
"Cornucopia will train a new generation of young scientists focusing on less studied yeasts with interesting traits, which could be applied in the food and health sectors. Yeasts are a divergent group of fungi that predominantly exist as unicellular organisms. The baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is by far the best known because of its role in producing beverages, baking and recombinant drug ...

Signaling circuitry controlling fungal virulence: identification and characterization of conserved and specific fungal virulence genes as common antifungal targets (ARIADNE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mai 2014,
"Fungi are heterotrophic microorganisms with devastating impact on agriculture and human health. Agricultural production worth billions of € is destroyed annually by fungal diseases. Human fungal infections have severe consequences on the growing number of immuno-compromised patients, with high mortality rates associated with Aspergillus and Candida infections. There is a critical need to further ...
