Dynamics of Microbiomes in Space (DynaMoS)

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Janet Jansson

Microorganisms were the first colonizers of our planet and they have since evolved over billions of years to utilize the resources that are available to them. Of all of Earth’s habitats, soil is the…

Reprogramming Plant Gene Regulatory Networks for Source-to-Sink Carbon Allocation

Lead Institution

Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Amir Ahkami

The regulation of carbon partitioning between source and sink tissues plays a critical role in plant growth and development. Plant productivity is enhanced by sink strength and source activity, which…

Identification of plant host and microbe model system for study of rhizophagy cycle

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Vivian Lin

Rhizophagy (“root eating”) is a process by which plants actively uptake soil microbes into their roots and use oxidative degradation to extract micronutrients from the cells. This phenomenon has been…
