DPPN-Access 2.0: Next call is open

DPPN-Access 2.0 is a follow-up project funded by the BMBF with the overall goal to provide a concerted, long-term and demand-oriented provision of the plant phenotyping facilities at the Research Center Jülich (FZJ), the Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) in Gatersleben and the Helmholtz Zentrum München (HMGU). A next call for access is open now.

Start
28th October 2024 11:00 PM
End
29th October 2024 04:00 PM

Deadline 29.10.2024

With "DPPN-ACCESS", national access ("ACCESS") to the phenotyping infrastructure facilities of the three sites FZJ, IPK and HMGU is to be made possible for external users, in particular those users who have no - or only insufficient - resources available for this themselves. This is aimed especially to university users and users from other publicly funded research institutions in Germany.

DPPN-Access 2.0: Next call is open

DPPN e.V. initially acquired the BMBF-funded pilot project "DPPN-ACCESS" (01.01.2022 - 31.12.2023). The requirements for the application procedure and the application guidelines were drawn up and two calls were launched. 19 applications have been submitted while 14 proposals have been accepted. 8 accesses have been established at IBG-2 using different facilities, like the BreedFACE, GrowScreenRhizo 3, MiniPlots, PlantMRI, PhenoSeeder or the HiDeR system. All reports of the experiments can be found here.

In order to ensure the implementation of further external user projects in the longer term, the BMBFfunded follow-up project "DPPN-ACCESS 2.0" (01.01.2024-31.12.2028) was acquired. The follow-up project DPPN-ACCESS 2.0 is intended to ensure an extended value creation of the funds invested in the DPPN project and thus contribute to improving the conditions for national research in the field of plant phenotyping.

A third call has already been launched end of 2023. The call attracted 11 applications; all applications have been accepted. 9 accesses are provided at IBG-2, while 4 applications use two combined facilities:

  • PlantMRI & phenoPET: PLASTIBEET I & II: Plasticity of carbon distribution in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) taproots using combined MRI and PET-approach
  • PhenoSeeder & GrowScreenChamber: SeedTraits & PlantVigour: Characterization of the early vigour of Arabidopsis seeds grown on experimentally engineered soil microbe communities.
  • PlantMRI & phenoPET: PeaCaRo: Influence of sucrose allocation on carbon allocation and root growth in the model legume garden pea
  • Screen House & PhenoSeeder: Gain4Crops: Rewiring photorespiration using natural and synthetic pathways to sustainably increase crop yield
