🤩 Not ONE, but THREE papers published in #PhytoKeys and #BiodiversityDataJournal mentioned in a news story on The Guardian: https://lnkd.in/d7gSFMhD! 🆕 In the new "provocative" book: "#Botany of Empire", Banu Subramaniam finds European colonial norms in #plant names. The Guardian also turned for commentary to Sandy Knapp, a senior research botanist at the Natural History Museum, London, past president of The Linnean Society of London and the International Association for #Plant #Taxonomy (IAPT), and Editor-in-Chief at #PhytoKeys. The news story mentions the last XIX International #Botanical Congress and meeting of the #Nomenclature Section in Shenzhen, whose official report was published in PhytoKeys: https://lnkd.in/dRF-Mhn5. In her commentary, Sandy Knapp mentions the Women #Genera project and the Data Paper in #Biodiversity #Data #Journal: https://lnkd.in/dsyHdghp. There, the team matched plant genera with the names of women they celebrate via Wikidata to create a dynamic dataset. The third Pensoft Publishers reference in The Guardian story comes again from PhytoKeys. Namely, it is the 2019 description of #Solanum #plastisexum: a bush tomato from Australia seen as "a model" species for "sexual fluidity" in the plant kingdom (see study: https://lnkd.in/dWxD_Jq7). Back in 2019, the study by Angela McDonnell, Heather B. Wetreich, Jason Cantley, Peter Jobson & Chris Martine made a lot of headlines, as a result of active & all-round press campaign (see our blog: https://lnkd.in/dudUy_nj) #taxonomy #plantscience #plantsci #scicomm #biodiversity #biodiversitydata #wikidata #openscience #researchers #scientists #publishing #scholarly #academic #research #journals #writing

Researchers discover a new plant species whose name tells a story In a botanical breakthrough, researchers unveil a new plant species, Relictithismia kimotsukiensis, discovered in Kimotsuki, Kagoshima Prefecture. Divergent from Tanuki-no-shokudai, it constitutes a new genus within the Thismiaceae family, signifying a rare find in Japan's well-explored botanical landscape. With environmental threats looming, further ecological research becomes imperative. https://buff.ly/3IEqTp4 via Kobe University #PlantScience #PlantSci #Science #Plants #Botany Image: The newly discovered plant Relictithismia kimotsukiensis probably diverged at an early stage in the evolution of the whole family and retains ancestral characteristics. This history is reflected in the plant’s name. Credit: SUETSUGU Kenji (CC BY)

📊 Task 3 Visualization using Histogram 📈🌿:Create a histogram or bar chart to visualize the distribution of data in a dataset 🎉 Excited to share a recent data analysis project where we delved into the fascinating world of botany using data science! We analyzed a dataset containing botanical measurements, with a particular focus on sepal lengths. Sepals, the outermost parts of a flower, vary significantly across different plant species, providing key insights into species diversity and characteristics. By creating a histogram to visualize the distribution of sepal lengths, we uncovered patterns and outliers that offer a deeper understanding of plant diversity and ecological relationships. This kind of analysis is crucial for species classification, biodiversity assessment, and understanding the intricate connections within ecosystems. Check out the visualization below and see how data science can reveal the hidden secrets of the natural world! 🌍🔬 For more details and to explore the code, visit our GitHub repository: GitHub: https://lnkd.in/g7fS3_UN #DataScience #Botany #Visualization #Biodiversity #Ecology #DataAnalysis #TechnoHacks & Mr. Sandip Gavit

I am thrilled to announce that I will be presenting an invited talk on fungal taxonomy at the International Seminar on ‘Plant Systematics: Present Status and Future Prospects’ organized by the Department of Botany, University of Calicut, Kerala. This prestigious event will take place from 15 to 17 February 2024 and aims to bring together scientists and researchers from diverse fields to discuss the latest trends and future prospects in plant systematics. The seminar will cover a wide range of themes, including Biodiversity & Conservation Biology, Floristics & Nomenclature, Modern trends in Plant Systematics, Phytogeography, Ecology & Pollination Biology, Revisions & Monographs, and notably, Taxonomy of lower groups—a perfect fit for my talk on fungal taxonomy. I am honored to have this opportunity to share my research and insights with fellow scientists and enthusiasts. The seminar promises to be an enriching experience, fostering opportunities for interaction, collaboration, and the exchange of ideas that will shape the future of plant systematics. Stay tuned for updates and insights from the seminar! Let's explore the fascinating world of plant and fungal systematics together. 🍃 #PlantSystematics #FungalTaxonomy #Botany #ScienceConference #UniversityOfCalicut #Research #ScienceCommunication

The fern species Ophioglossum reticulatum has the highest number of chromosomes compared to other organisms. It is reported to have 1260 chromosomes, which is the highest known count among plants and animals. In comparison, other organisms have varying chromosome numbers. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes, hermit crabs have 254 chromosomes, onions have 16 chromosomes, houseflies have 12 chromosomes, and butterflies have 380 chromosomes. This demonstrates the significant variation in chromosome counts across different species. Hey there, looking for a flexible and affordable way to earn a degree?

“Tree of Life” for flowering plants Scientists contribute to a global study, creating a comprehensive "tree of life" for flowering plants, including crucial insights into the evolution of cruciferous plants. Drawing from extensive botanical collections and genetic analyses, researchers shed light on plant origins and relationships, aiding conservation efforts amidst climate change. https://buff.ly/3QDP0Zd via @uni-heidelberg #PlantScience #PlantSci #PlantSystematics #Botany #Flowers #Plants #Science Image credit: The data of the “tree of life” for flowering plants will contribute to identifying new species, refining plant classification, uncovering new medicinal compounds, and conserving plants in the face of climate change and biodiversity loss. | Illustration for the Nature publication “Phylogenomics and the rise of the angiosperms”
