Investigating the mechanisms of polar protein localisation in plant cells
For the multicellular organism development, cells must feel the direction to divide and grow. That is why the cells are polar – they have asymmetrical distribution of organelles and molecules. In plants, the mechanisms that esta ...

Biochemical properties underlying functional divergence in transcriptional regulation in plants transcription factors
The transcriptional state of a gene in a given moment can range from activated to repressed, but this state is defined by the concerted action of multiple mechanisms. One of these is the transcriptional activity of specific transc ...

The effect of pH on the determination of permanganate-oxidisable carbon (POXC)
Soil organic matter (SOM) is crucial for a healthy soil; yet, changes in SOM content due to e.g. different land management are generally slow. Active or easily degradable soil carbon is more responsive to such changes and also an  ...

Busy beavers capture carbon
Environmental scientists have proposed drawing carbon out of the air and burying it to reduce greenhouse gasses and the impact of climate change. Maybe we can take some tips from nature’s own eco-engineers – beavers – which  ...

Identifying loci that regulate seed dormancy and seed longevity
Two major characteristics that control seed quality are seed dormancy and seed longevity (storability). Knowledge on the genetic control of dormancy and seed longevity is essential to breed varieties that have the required level o ...

Role of seed proteins in protecting mRNA
Seeds can survive for many years, despite exposure to different environmental stresses. Messenger (m)RNAs are stored in the seed and crucial for its germination, but are also vulnerable to these stresses. Therefore, protecting the ...

Exploring the use of neural differential equation models for experimental design and parameter estimation
At SSB, our projects are either offered as computational or experimental projects. Nearly all projects can be altered for either BSc or MSc students (as required). For more information, please contact Rob Smith (robert1.smith@wur. ...

Analysis of metabolite concentration time profiles for systems health applications.
: Humans can be characterized almost univocally by their individual metabolic profiles and it has been shown that statistical models able to classify subjects with almost perfect accuracy can be built if a sufficient number of sa ...

Parallel evolution in brain anatomy: do sympatric species evolve together in response to predation?
Animals need cognitive abilities to estimate predation risk and adjust behaviour accordingly. As cognition is governed by brain anatomy, predation pressure is likely linked to brain evolution. Despite a number of studies now hav ...

MSc Thesis: Tracking birds to assess the potential of nature-inclusive farming
Are you passionate about birds, do you like a lot of fieldwork, and do you want to contribute to research on nature-inclusive farming? Then this MSc thesis might be your perfect fit. You will investigate whether strip cropping ...
