Workpackage 0 (WP0): Management of project Objectives: • Project management, supervision of sample distribution and exchange of material between partners • Confirmation of deliverables and milestones • Submission of reports, supervision of periodic meetings and budget administration • Supervision of websites formation and availability
Workpackage 0 (WP0): Management of project Description of works: • Coordination of research activities by partners, flow of samples and data; interaction between partners • Supervision of two websites: a) Public with privileged access to partners (contractor) b) Platform for data (P5) 3. Supervision of synthesis of genomic, proteomic and metabolomic data • Organization of semi-annual and annual meetings • Integration and dissemination of results and maintaining contacts with the EC (Dr. C. Krassnig) • Responsibility for all contractual activities, including intellectual properties
Workpackage 1 (WP1): Mechanisms for establishment of dormant stage • Objectives: • Characterize and optimize conditions for obtaining akinetes in culture (P1; Ora & Assaf) 2. Identification of genes, proteins and compounds associated with formation of akinetes in cyanobacteria and resting eggs in rotifers (P1, P5, P6: Ora, Assaf, Esther, Richard and Jens) 3. Studies on yeast sporulation and establishment of the dormant stage (P3, P5, P6: Stefan, Richard & Jens)
WP1: Description of work • The effect of environmental factors on akinetes formation (P1: Ora & Assaf) 2. Rotifer cultures and resting egg production (P1: Esther) 3. cDNA libraries and microarrays (Richard in samples supplied by Ora, Assaf & Esther) 4. Temporal expression of genes that are up- regulated or down-regulated during the formation of akinetes and resting eggs (Ora, Assaf, Esther & Richard) 5. Search for proteins and compounds (Richard and Jens on samples supplied by Assaf, Ora, Esther & Stefan) 6. Studies on sporulation and establishment of the dormant stage (Stefan)
