Of the 9506 species in our vast tree of life, 3466 were sequenced from #herbarium specimens, some nearly 200 years old like this Arenaria globiflora collected by Nathaniel Wallich in the #Himalayas. #Herbaria are new frontiers for #genomic research!
Brand spanking new flowering plant tree of life! Hot off the press @Nature. Huge thanks to @KewScience and all 279 co-authors for tireless graft on this for past 8 years. We hope you all like it! #angiosperms353 nature.com/articles/s4158…
It’s #Fern Friday… This must be a very special taxon that I even made a collection of it from Brunei 😅 anyone can give me a name? many Thanks 🙏🙏🙏 @MichaelSundue @westo_fernnerd
The #Rubiaceae genus Peponidium is found on #Madagascar and the surrounding islands. The name means "little pumpkin", referring to the orange fruits. How cute!
279 scientists from 138 institutions have come together to sequence the DNA of 9,500 plant species 🎉 This plant tree of life will help us answer questions from 200 years ago and those of tomorrow - such as how groups of plants might fare under climate change. Learn more 👇

NEW TODAY in @Nature - A vast DNA tree of life brings open access DNA sequences of >9500 flowering plants! 🧬 This invaluable resource crafted by 279 scientists lets us answer key questions about modern plant life and look back in time to its origins 🌿 nature.com/articles/s4158…
Specimens collected on the caribbean island of Monserrat on their way back home! Today with our volunteer @RosemaryFoley8 we prepared 6 bundles of herbarium specimens. These are now ready to be sent to the Monserrat National Herbarium, housed by the Monserrat National Trust.
Erin and Gayathri from Kew Ethnobotany Collection shared their experiences of battling and old foe - the Biscuit Beetle (Stegiobium paniceum). Some useful pointers, the most important being DON'T PANIC! #natsca2024
The next #NatSCA2024 Lightning Talk had Grace Flanagan from Kew talking about development of a new Herbarium Handbook, which will include include more up-to-date information on collections research using DNA, policy and ethnobotany ethics.
On my reading list! shop.kew.org/kew-herbarium-… #NatSCA2024
Soon in Taxon: a new survey of the coffee family. Very welcome tool for the #Rubiaceae community. Representing the authors's long lasting experience with the family. Congratulations!
Because it is #NationalOrchidDay (well, it was yesterday but whatever 🤪), pls have a look at a) 5 cool facts about orchids (see vid below produced by the talented @LydiaShelWalker!) b) the orchid tree of life (read more about it here: nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…) Please share!

The Royal Botanic Gardens Constabulary was formed in 1845. 👮♀️ Kew constables were part-time gardeners or Crimean War pensioners and patrolled during opening hours. At night this job was given to a Metropolitan police officer.

I’m super happy to be part of @paftol team and collaborate with this great publication! It is a great collaborative work, and thanks to @AlexZuntini and @BillJBaker for leading it!
NEW TODAY in @Nature - A vast DNA tree of life brings open access DNA sequences of >9500 flowering plants! 🧬 This invaluable resource crafted by 279 scientists lets us answer key questions about modern plant life and look back in time to its origins 🌿 nature.com/articles/s4158…
The new #angiosperm tree of life grew out of a wonderful collaboration across @KewScience, @PlantsAus and 100s of scientists and herbaria worldwide. All data are #openaccess and can be browsed via treeoflife.kew.org
The tree also tells the story of how flowering plants diversified over time, revealing two major surges. The earliest surge around the origin of the angiosperms matches Darwin's "abominable mystery" - a term he used for the sudden appearance of angiosperms in the fossil record.
The new tree of life also shows that the bizarre Medusanthera has to be kicked out of the Aquifoliales, which it shared with the hollies - until now! It's going to take some time to fully digest the many new insights emerging from this tree.
Our new tree of life sheds light on the relationships between many groups of #angiosperms. Take this weird parasite Pilostyles in family Apodanthaceae. Previously placed in the Cucurbitales with melons & begonias, it now falls in Malpighiales with euphorbias & #rafflesia.
511 species in the new #angiosperm tree of life are threatened with #extinction. In fact two are already #extinct, like this Guadalupe Island olive (Hesperelaea palmeri) - we could sequence it from 1875 material preserved in the @KewScience herbarium
Of the 9506 species in our vast tree of life, 3466 were sequenced from #herbarium specimens, some nearly 200 years old like this Arenaria globiflora collected by Nathaniel Wallich in the #Himalayas. #Herbaria are new frontiers for #genomic research!
Brand spanking new flowering plant tree of life! Hot off the press @Nature. Huge thanks to @KewScience and all 279 co-authors for tireless graft on this for past 8 years. We hope you all like it! #angiosperms353 nature.com/articles/s4158…
It’s #Fern Friday… This must be a very special taxon that I even made a collection of it from Brunei 😅 anyone can give me a name? many Thanks 🙏🙏🙏 @MichaelSundue @westo_fernnerd

The #Rubiaceae genus Peponidium is found on #Madagascar and the surrounding islands. The name means "little pumpkin", referring to the orange fruits. How cute!
