Neurophysiology of birdsong syntax perception (SYNTAX)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"Like human language, birdsong is hierarchically organized according to particular syntactic constraints (phonological syntax). Interestingly, birds have also been shown to posses impressive capabilities in recognizing syntactic patterns, even artificial ones, which makes them an attractive, but as yet virtually unexplored, model for research into the neural underpinnings of syntax perception. To ...

Induced Resistance in tomato by beneficial microorganisms - Translating Arabidopsis-derived molecular knowledge on defense signaling (InduResTom)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

Similarly to pathogens, the interaction with beneficial microorganisms (such as growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Trichoderma) can induce in plants a form of immunity and is known as Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR), which renders plants resistant to subsequent attack by a broad spectrum of pathogens. Multidisciplinary strategies and high throughput global methodologies are contributing t ...

Adaptive Strategies to Mitigate the Impacts of Climate Change on European Freshwater Ecosystems (REFRESH)

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

Understanding how freshwater ecosystems will respond to future climate change is essential for the development of policies and implementation strategies needed to protect aquatic and riparian ecosystems. The future status of freshwater ecosystems is however, also dependent on changes in land-use, pollution loading and water demand. In addition the measures that need to be taken to restore freshwat ...

Genetic testing in Europe - Network for the further development, harmonization, validation and standardization of services (EUROGENTEST2)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

EuroGentest is an FP6 European network for the harmonization of genetic testing and for the further improvement of quality in genetic services across Europe.This proposal is to support EuroGentest2, a Coordination Action that will cover the different aspects of quality assurance of genetic practice and has all the ingredients to fulfil the needs. EuroGentest2 will be concerned with setting the tar ...

Climate variability and associated limnological changes in the coldest region of Eurasia over the past millennium: chironomid-based reconstructions in NE Siberia (SibClimLake)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2010,

Understanding the climatic instability on decadal to centennial timescales is essential for determining the baseline and recent trends of climatic variations. Our study has the aim to reconstruct climatic variability and climate impact on lakes over the last millennium in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the coldest region of Eurasia. This goal will be achieved by means of chironomid analysis (Dip ...
