Loved hearing from @Biologist_Britt on what threatened frogs 🐸 have been up in our own backyards. Such a cool look at what we can learn from the wonderful @FrogIDAus citizen science dataset!

. @seedysarah became speedy sarah to wrap up Wednesday with her short talk on how fatty acids contribute to seed persistence in fire-prone ecosystems🔥

[Ruby Paroissien @RubyParoissien]

Calling for a lot of help on this one! #ESAus23

[Katherine Thomson @that_seed_girl]

Today we performed "flame extraction" on the #Banksia canei (mountain banksia) cones to add to the living collection @AustralianBG. #Plantbank #seeds

[Ruby Paroissien @RubyParoissien]

Had to follow a lot of great talks @seedecol7

[Ruby Paroissien @RubyParoissien]

Some great seed (and fire) talks today at day 2 of @seedecol7 from the Ooi lab @RyanTangney @ooist7 @seedysarah

[Ruby Paroissien @RubyParoissien]

First day of the Seed Ecology VII conference in Gijón, Spain @seedecol7

[Australian Seed Bank Partnership @SeedPartnership]

Known habitat for Boronia barkeriana subsp. barkeriana was entirely affected after 🔥 in the Blue Mt’s. To secure this Sp, the @AustralianBG collected seed from the hanging swamp at Govett’s Leap in Mar 2022. This was funded by @WWF_Australia & Airwick for the #RareBloomProject

[Alexandria Thomsen @Synapheadiaries]

Excited to share the findings from my honours research in my first ever paper! Out now in @WileyEcolEvol. Our study shows that fire season can have a significant impact on flower production in resprouting shrubs.

This little popular fire ephemeral is my all time favourite | https://t.co/cegMQRkQOa

Banksia canei in all it’s texture #PlantBank

[Rachael Nolan @Rachael_H_Nolan]

While many plants are well adapted to fire, under climate change the combination of changing fire regimes and more extreme drought, heatwaves and pest insect outbreaks may push them to their limit.
