PRedicting ecosystem Resilience through Multiscale and Innovative Science (PREMIS) Initiative: Molecular Phenotyping of Plants & Microbes (MolPheno)
EMSL Project ID
50100
Abstract
The MolPheno project will establish molecular (metabolite and protein) profiles from plants exposed to fresh water-replete or -deprived conditions. Metabolite profiling will include tissue-specific total plant metabolite, plant volatile organic compounds (VOC) and root exudate analysis. Plants, including the genomically well-characterized and tractable model grasses Brachypodium distachyon (Brachypoium) and Setaria virids (Setaria); the newly sequenced diazotrophic (nitrogen-fixing) tree Alnus rubra (red alder), and a few select keystone species from terrestrial-aquatic ecosystem (TAE) sites will be sampled during growth under controlled-environment conditions in the EMSL Phytotron, at the managed PNNL field sites in Richland or at the Marine Sciences Laboratory (MSL) in Sequim, or, for TAE keystone species, on location at select TAE sites.
