Page 1/29 Abstract Drought and salinity are major environmental stresses which affect crop productivity and therefore are major hindrance in feeding growing population world-wide. Calcium (Ca2+) signalling plays a crucial role during the plant's response to these stress stimuli. Calmodulin (CaM), a crucial Ca2+sensor, is involved in transducing the signal downstream in various physiological, developmental and stress responses by modulating a plethora of target proteins. The role of CaM has been well established in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana for regulating various developmental processes, stress signalling and ion transport.

    Forschungsbericht Für Das Jahr 2016

    Forschungsbericht für das Jahr 2016 Fachbereich 13 - Biologie Impressum Herausgeber Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Prorektorin für Forschung Schlossplatz 2 48149 Münster E-Mail: [email protected] http://www.uni-muenster.de Bearbeitung und Layout Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Dezernat 6: Forschungsangelegenheiten Abteilung 6.4: Forschungsinformationen und Forschungsberichterstattung Domplatz 6-7 48143 Münster E-Mail: [email protected] http://www.uni-muenster.de/CRIS Abruf der Forschungsberichte http://www.uni-muenster.de/wwu/dokumentationen/forschungsberichte Münster, den 12.05.2017 Sehr geehrte Leserinnen und Leser, ein Forschungsbericht ist immer ein Spiegel geleisteter Arbeit und macht Eines deutlich: das starke Engagement der Forscherinnen und Forscher an der WWU. In ihren Forschungsberichten geben die Fachbereiche einen Überblick über die Forschungsaktivitäten des vergangenen Jahres 2016, über abgeschlossene Dissertations- und Habilitationsverfahren, über Publikationen, Auszeichnungen und Preise sowie nationale wie internationale Projekte, kurzum: über alles, was Forschung an der WWU auszeichnet. Dabei decken diese Aktivitäten ein breites Spektrum an Themen und Inhalten ab. So setzt sich das innovative Graduiertenkolleg EvoPAD („Evolutionary Processes in Adaptation and Disease”) aus geistes- und naturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive damit auseinander, wie und warum Krankheiten entstehen und welche Rolle evolutionäre Anpassungen dabei spielen. Während der SFB TRR 170 hingegen in höheren Sphären schwebt und unter anderem die Entwicklung der Erde und ihres Mondes ergründet, setzen sich gleich mehrere Projekte mit dem Thema der Digitalen Gesellschaft auseinander, beispielhaft auch aus genderspezifischer Sichtweise (z.B. EQUAL-IST oder Digital Me). Dies sind aber nur einige wenige Beispiele - die in diesem Bericht zusammengetragenen Daten zeigen die Vielfältigkeit aller Forschungsaktivitäten, die die WWU nicht nur bundesweit, sondern international sichtbar macht.
