Underpinning the significance of circadian clock winter disruption in Poplar (WinClock)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2018,

Plants are able to anticipate to changes of the environmental conditions triggering self-protective developmental programs. Dormancy is a complex developmental program that allows woody plants to survive the low temperatures of winter. Dormancy, therefore, determines the geographical distribution and the developmental period of the tree, which will in turn condition both the productivity and quali ...

Linking abiotic and biotic stress into the net outcome of plant interactions (BIOSTRESS)

Start date: May 15, 2014, End date: May 14, 2017,

"Changes in biotic interactions are one of the key drivers of biodiversity loss. In order to preserve biodiversity, it is essential to achieve a deep understanding on all aspects of biotic interactions. Plants benefit from positive interactions but, at the same time, they have to cope with detrimental agents that cause plants to become stressed. Most studies have examined biotic and abiotic stress ...

Plant immunity regulated by cell wall integrity (SignWALLINg)

Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

In their natural environments, plants are under continuous biotic stress caused by different attackers and exposed to abiotic stresses that compromise their survival and offspring. Being well defended against environmental threats throughout the constitutive expression of defensive mechanisms may not always be the best strategy for plants due to the tradeoffs associated to such responses. One of t ...
