@ellen_rosella Congrats, can't wait to give it a read :))

Listen to @KatePlantPhys and I have a chat to our lovely Swiss friend @JuillardThibaut about invasive plants in Europe. This was a lot of fun to make, so please give it some love!!! <3

[That's What I Call Science 🎙 @ThatsScienceTAS]

Within walking distance of glaciers, palm trees have invaded the Swiss Alps.

Today, we talk to @JuillardThibaut, who studies what makes these palms successful for his PhD in the PERL (Plant Ecology Research Laboratory) at @EPFL_en and @WSL_research in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Posing with what must be the strangest plant on Earth: Parasitaxus usta, the only known parasitic gymnosperm... or rather, a 'a unique physiological chimera of mistletoe-like water relations and fungal-mediated carbon trafficking from the host.' https://t.co/cd5DTRahLo
