Systematic analysis of factors controlling meiotic recombination in higher plants (MEIOsys)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Meiotic recombination has underpinned plant breeding for the generation of new traits of agronomic, environmental and economic importance, although we still have little understanding of the controlling mechanisms involved in this process. We will combine approaches in genomics and systems biology to obtain a detailed understanding of the factors that control recombination and will provide a basis ...

Groundwater and dependent Ecosystems: NEw Scientific basIS on climate change and land-use impacts for the update of the EU Groundwater Directive (GENESIS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

Groundwater resources are facing increasing pressure from consumptive uses (irrigation, water supply, industry) and contamination by diffuse loading (e.g. agriculture) and point sources (e.g. industry). This cause major threat and risks to our most valuable water resource and on ecosystems dependent on groundwater. New information is need on how to better protect groundwaters and groundwater depen ...

Pathogenomics and Systems Biology of Fungal Infections – An Integrative Approach (FINSysB)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

The vision of the FINSysB Network is to generate bright, ambitious and well-trained young researchers capable of contributing significantly to the knowledge-base and economy of the European Union. We will achieve this goal by providing a strong, multidisciplinary training for early stage and experienced researchers in the pathobiology, genomics, molecular biology, bioinformatics and systems biolo ...

Farm Accountancy Cost Estimation and Policy Analysis of European Agriculture (FACEPA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

"The proposed project will provide EU policy makers with information, data, quantitative instruments (economic models) and empirical expertise on cost of production for various types of agricultural products using the FADN data. More specifically, the purpose is to offer first a general cost of production model that could be used to estimate cost of production for key agricultural commodities prod ...

Molecular characterization of the PrBn locus and some other QTLs controlling homeologous recombination in Brassica napus (CoGePrBn)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2010,

"This project aims to characterize, at the molecular level, the segments of the Brassica napus genome that contain the PrBn locus and a number of other additive or epistatic QTLs controlling homeologous recombination. We will first combine fine genetic mapping and comparative genomic approaches (using Arabidopsis thaliana) to test the core hypothesis that PrBn and most of the mapped QTLs belong to ...
