Interested in target capture sequencing?
@madiraibullock and I are happy to announce a new service at TTU. Send us DNA, get reads enriched for your probes. Angiosperms353, GoFLAG, Compositae1061 & more!
Funds go to grad student stipends and tuition!

@hhlee @MadiRaiBullock Trade off on price (about 1/3 of others) vs speed… The service is currently being run by one graduate student, if there is a lot of interest we will reinvest in more grad student stipends for future years.

Hey fellow botanists! Interested in hearing about some of the research I've been doing for my PhD? Check out my talk for the @AmSocPlantTaxon webinar series THIS FRIDAY at 12pm CDT 🌱🌻🏜️ Register here: https://t.co/Xff8tgtu9Y
The BSA Historical Section is happy to announce Madison Bullock, Texas Tech University, as the winner of the Emanuel D. Rudolph Award for best student presentation of a historical nature at Botany 2024!

I’m also glad meeting one BSA students’ representative in person @ajayibenmi and other fellow Nigerians doing cool stuff in Botany.
In the same vein networking with different kinds of people doing cool stuff in Botany was my highlight for #Botany2024
The @TexasTech@mossMatters Lab gave amazing presentations at #Botany2024! Huge congratulations to @oluwaseunflora1 for her first national conference presentation. Happy to have all of these wonderful lab mates!
We currently have 4 job openings for Assistant Professors in our department. We are looking for a behavioral ecologist, a global change biologist, a microbial geneticist, and a developmental neurobiologist. https://t.co/a62mbGBlh9
Very important to note that a paper of this scale would not have been possible without:
- Herbaria! especially @KewScience
- a global team of collaborators willing to openly share data
- advancements in efficient open source software
- investment in basic biodiversity research
Wake up, honey: new phylogeny of flowering plants just dropped!
Over 9K species, 58% of genera, and all 416 families inferred using Angiosperms353! Out now in Nature - congrats to the @KewScience team and SO MANY collaborators!

@MaribethLatvis @phylieu After ordering a slice of pecan pie at a BBQ place in TX, the woman at the counter says to us:
"Well honey, the PEE-CAN is in the back, but I can get ya some peh-CAHN pie if you want"
@SMWadgymar I'm not sure how I would teach relative fitness and genetic drift without first describing HWE and how it's an oversimplification of reality.
@tiger3877 Yes! There's material on QUBES I mentioned above (includes whole syllabi) and we have additional resources freely available just not published yet. I'm the "CURE Facilitator" for @bceenet so happy to field any questions on implementing! also see https://t.co/OsY62KJZpA
IMO we save herbaria by making them critical to the research AND teaching missions of universities.
Since 2020, @bceenet we've been developing teaching resources using natural history collections. Plus we have $$$ available for instructor training!
