Small RNA regulation of the body plan and epigenome in Arabidopsis embryos (sRNA-EMB)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2015, Date de fin: 30 juin 2020,
Small RNAs are short non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression in plants and animals. Although small RNAs are essential for proper differentiation and epigenome regulation, little is known regarding their embryonic functions, especially in plants. Arabidopsis thaliana is a leading system to study the regulatory roles of small RNAs because of the abundance of genetic, genomic and epigenomic res ...

EFFECTOMICS- elucidating the toolbox of biotrophic pathogens (EFFECTOMICS)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,
"Our existence as human beings is based on plants and their products. Worldwide, crops are threatened by pests including biotrophic fungi. Therefore, it is of vital interest to develop new strategies to reduce crop losses and to improve crop plants for the growing world population. Biotrophic plant pathogens employ small secreted molecules, so-called effectors, to overcome plant defence systems an ...

Calcium- and light signals in photosynthetic organisms (CALIPSO)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
"CALIPSO is a genuine interdisciplinary and intersectorial research network composed of nine academic research institutions and three industrial partners, thus presenting an example of true translational research and training of young researchers in communicating and transferring achievements from different model organisms directly to industrial partners. CALIPSO aims at identifying environmentall ...

Developing maximum-resolution genotype-phenotype maps using whole-genome polymorphism data (MAXMAP)
Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
"Although pioneered by human geneticists as a potential solution to the challenging problem of finding the genetic basis of common human diseases, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have, owing to advances in genotyping and sequencing technology, become an obvious general approach for studying the genetics of natural variation. They are particularly useful when inbred lines are available becau ...

Genetic adaptations to climate in Arabidopsis thaliana (CLIMATE_ADAPTATION)
Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
A major goal of evolutionary biology is to understand the phenotypic and genetic bases of adaptation to the environment. Since plants have limited mobility, aspects of climate play an especially important role in their survival and reproductive success. Some of the earliest evidence for this comes from phenotypic clines with the environment . The proposed research will identify the specific geneti ...

Trans-national Infrastructure for Plant Genomic Science (transPLANT)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2011, Date de fin: 31 août 2015,
Food and energy security are major challenges facing humanity in the coming decades. The falling costs of nucleotide sequencing are opening up significant opportunities for crop improvement through plant breeding and increased understanding of plant biology; in particular through interpreting the growing volume of plant genomics data in the context of phenotype. However, at present, there is no a ...

Chloroplast Signals (COSI)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"COSI integrates young researchers in a network of 10 leading European research centres, including Bayer BioScience as industrial partner. We aim at identification of regulatory principles governing chloroplast metabolism, a crucial factor for agricultural productivity. Specifically we want to identify chloroplast-related protein kinases and their targets and associated calcium signals. A long ter ...

Vienna Biocenter European Researchers Night (VBC ERN)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2009,
"Science is central to the success of the European society and to tackle some of the major problems mankind is facing in the near future. Nevertheless, negative stereotypes about scientists persist. While a slow erosion of these stereotypes is detectable, continued and sustained efforts are necessary to overcome this prevalent barrier to increase the number of scientists in Europe. The most effici ...
