What happens when a rare species is actually a common species? Justen Whittall TELLS ALL about genomic differences separating two populations of jewelflowers at #norcalbot2020. Also, shout out to him for letting me carpool! Such a great guy. @CNPS @CalBotSoc
The #monkeyflower enthusiasm has taken over #NorCalBot2020! @eco_genome tells us about the nectar inhabiting microbes of #Diplacus aurantiacus. There are so many questions to ask to investigate how microbial communities in nectar can affect plant fitness.
.@jackie_e_shay is investigating endophytes in #monkeyflowers! Such a cool study to investigate the role of endophytes in how plants cope with stress. #NorCalBot2020
Really exciting talks about #bird and #bee #pollinators with #native #plants at #norcalbot2020. Reach out to @kdheineman if you want to make plant videos! @CNPS @CalBotSoc
It was great to meet @eco_genome at #norcalbot2020! I love this illustration of my presentation. She captured the essence of what I wanted to convey. Thank you Callie for this beautiful illustration! 😊
So many new species of #monkeyflowers from the “monkeyflower queen” @naomibot at #norcalbot2020! Audience went wild over the new taxonomy. @CNPS @CalBotSoc

Great group of ⚡️lightning talks ⚡️at #norcalbot2020! Not just original research, but a great opportunity to present new tools, courses, and collaborations. @CNPS @CalBotSoc
Alexa DiNicola rediscovered a Potentilla that had not been seen since the 1930’s. It was also her birthday. So glad she celebrated with us by sharing her dissertation research #norcalbot2020
Julie Kierstead discovered a new species of #Phacelia (Boraginaceae) that had never been collected before and it grows roadside in Shasta County. Amazing! #norcalbot2020
I was so proud to be apart of the “New Discoveries” session at #norcalbot2020! My big picture take home is that California is wonderfully diverse with plant life. Even with lots of botanists combing the ground, there is still much to discover, sometimes right under our noses!
Loving all of the cheering and positive vibes at #norcalbot2020! The audience even sang a rousing rendition of “happy birthday” to a speaker who was celebrating their birthday by presenting their dissertation! Love hanging out with plant enthusiasts. 🌱 ❤️
Great session on #restoration at #norcalbot2020 with Brooke Wainwright, Cara Clark, Justen Whittall, and Kristen Kaczynski! @CNPS @CalBotSoc
.@TheMereKat tell us about using @nfromn to harness the power of technology to collectively digitize herbarium specimens. We can help to bring these dark data to light! #norcalbot2020
We are getting our GED in GDEs. Ground water dependent ecosystems have many research opportunities. We need to learn more to protect them! #norcalbot2020
Great first session of 🌿 #norcalbot2020 at @ChicoState with Theresa Sholars @redwoodstweets, @tbisrael (@unevadareno), Chenjiao Deng (@ucdavis), and Geraldine Allen (@uvic) discussing #species #boundaries. Love the enthusiastic audience! 👏 @CalBotSoc @CNPS @naomibot
A question about the taxonomy of Eucephalus comes up and Dr. Allen explains that based on recently phhylogenetic research, Eucephalus will need to be included in Doellingeria , and the whole room grumbles. Taxonomy woes at #Norcalbot2020
There have decades of arguments of plant species concepts. The plants don’t care and they intergrade often. But what should we conserve? Are conservation $$ best spent on taxa we can ID by morphology? Geraldine Allen tells us about these issues in Eucephalus at #NorCalBot2020
Theresa Scholars is speaking about species boundaries in #Lupinus and explains that there is a lot of gene flow so things are fuzzy, and maybe we should just accept that. 🙌🏼 #NorCalBot2020
