The Specht Lab is stoked for #botany2024 ! Come check out what we’ve been doing ⬇️⬇️⬇️ See ya soon!




Nice late lunch with a good portion of American Society of Plant Taxonomists Council after a long meeting at #Botany2024. Great peeps.



If you are at #Botany2024, check out two Soltis Lab @UF posters by awesome undergraduates on crop wild relatives and niche modeling! Both Tyler and Sebastian are also interested in learning more about grad school opportunities!


Big day for the Martine/Sain Bucknell University research group at #Botany2024 today. Please swing by these student posters this evening to chat us up! #solanum #aconitum #PUI #plantjoy


Another great Soltis Lab @UF talk by postdoc Jonathan Spoelhof on genome assemblies in polyploid species of Tragopogon. #Botany2024



Super proud of the great job our Bucknell University students did at tonight’s #Botany2024 poster session.




Really enjoying the plenary by Kathleen Kay here at #botany2024 - great reminder of the importance of studying reproductive isolation (including pollinator-mediated) in a careful way, avoiding assumptions, and thinking carefully about our choice of systems and their geography.

If you don’t want to study gypsum endemism after any Mike Moore Mike Moore talk are you even a botanist? Fascinating #Botany2024 presentation, unsurprisingly.


If any part of this #Botany2024 title sounds intriguing/vexing enough to get yourself to ballroom D at 8:15 am Weds, see ya there! Seriously tho u want to be there at 8 to hear from this year’s Bessey Award winner Joan Edwards who has taught botany Williams College for 50 yrs!


Hey #Botany2024- don’t sleep on Laymon Ball’s talk tomorrow Wednesday at 2pm in the Phylogenomics: Evolutionary Relationships session in Gallery Overlook D. It’s a beautiful, synthetic talk in her dissertation research on Hillieae (Rubiaceae) evolution! #LagoLab
