Genetics and physiology of wheat development to flowering: tools to breed for improved adaptation and yield potential (ADAPTAWHEAT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"ADAPTAWHEAT will show how flowering time variation can be exploited for the genetic improvement of the European wheat crop to optimise adaptation and performance in the light of predicted climate change. It will test current hypotheses that postulate specific changes in ear emergence and the timing and duration of developmental phases, which are thought of as components of ear emergence, will i ...

Solar system plasma Turbulence: Observations, inteRmittency and Multifractals (STORM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

In this project we investigate solar system plasma turbulence from in-situ data gathered by automated platforms launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA. We investigate how the features of turbulence and intermittency vary with the solar activity and estimate the corresponding impact. We use electromagnetic field and plasma data provided by a core of three ESA spacecraft, Ulysses, Ve ...

(International) Socio-Technical Challenges for implementing geological disposal (INSOTEC)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

InSOTEC aims at identifying the main socio-political challenges for implementing geological disposal and their interplay with technical challenges. It will furthermore provide the IGD-TP with concrete suggestions on how to address these entangled socio-technical challenges.The biggest challenge today lies in adapting the generic concept of geological disposal to the real world environment (both na ...

Analysis of signalling mechanisms that integrate environmental stimuli into plant growth regulatory processes (PLANT ENVI DEVI)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

"Plant growth is remarkably flexible in response to changing environmental conditions, which is especially important as human life depends on the production of plant materials and they are now also being explored as a source of non-fossil fuels. The proposed project aims to reveal novel regulatory mechanisms that control developmental processes in response to environmental stresses. Mitogen-activa ...
