I am very happy to share that the Missouri Botanical Garden has received funding to digitize their entire herbarium! This work - made possible by an anonymous $14.4 million grant - will image and transcribe all 8 million specimens in the MO herbarium.

I’ve likened the clove genus, #Syzygium, to a “large monstrous 🥧” with these questions in mind: 1) which part to eat first, 2) how to make the first cut, and 3) how big are the cuts? So, one of the “slices” is now published 😊! #SBGScience @KewScience

Ecologically important & found growing in the #Rainforest understorey, #Besleria has been understudied...until now where phylogenetic analysis confirmed its monophyly status & inferred its biogeographical history! 👇

Great to hear from @AlexZuntini about all the exciting work planned in Lamiales - an amazing order of flowering plants (with many important parasitic plants too!) #IBC2024

[Alexandre Zuntini @AlexZuntini]

And what an honour seeing our work on Angiosperms Phylogenomics (check here: https://t.co/XdaN5btwt4) highlighted in her talk as an example of collaboration for making great science!

So happy to see our paper featured on the cover (designed by yours truly☺️) of @MolBioEvol! 🌿The artwork shows the multi-faceted aspects of #coca discussed in our study, from #cocaine, leaf shapes, to its tradition & value for #indigenous ppl. Pls share!
