Molecular determinants of aphid host range (APHIDHOST)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2018,
Many aphid species are restricted to one or few host plants, while some aphids, many of which are of agricultural importance, can infest a wide range of plant species. An important observation is that aphids spend a considerable time on nonhost species, where they probe the leaf tissue and secrete saliva, but for unknown reasons are unable to ingest phloem sap. This suggest that aphids, like plant ...

Zinc Interaction with Phosphorus in Root Uptake (ZIPRU)
Date du début: 1 mai 2015, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2017,
"The overall goal of this project is to understand phosphorus (P) and zinc (Zn) interactions in the mineral nutrition of Brassica oleracea, a species that has been bred into a wide range of crops such as broccoli, cabbage, kale and cauliflower. To achieve this, we will develop a comprehensive understanding of key mechanisms and coordination of P-Zn cross-talk that allows high P-use-efficiency (PUE ...

Regulatory networks underpinning fertility of the lateral florets on the barley inflorescence (spike) (SPIKE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2015, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
"The ancestral form of cultivated barley produces two rows of grain along the grain bearing 'spike'. However, types with six rows of grain emerged soon after the domestication of the species and quickly became the dominant form in primitive agricultural systems. This morphological and developmental switch is generally accepted to result from recessive mutations in a single gene called SIX-ROWED ...
