End of era in the lab @instmolplantsci.bsky.social as we say goodbye to @rafadscruz.bsky.social and @jeremywyman.bsky.social. It’s been a pleasure having you both in the team. Wishing you both the best for your next steps in Australia 🇦🇺 and Brazil 🇧🇷 🌿

This is also common in Rutaceae. I wonder how many of these are just simple leaves with weird petioles.

Sorry guys, I needed to purge the old Botany Feed to remove some nsfw posts that were getting too frequent. I tried to correct the old one, but in the meantime, after some modifications, I deleted it by accident. However, this is the patched version that should work well. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Rafael @rafadscruz.bsky.social and I are excited to share our new paper about fern fiddlehead evolution @currentbiology.bsky.social Read the paper at www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Thanks @palaeojules.bsky.social for the wonderful reconstructions!

Many like botany and mentioned it outside of a scientific context. And other users used some tags to promote inappropriate content. I've narrowed the criteria a bit to make a better selection now. Let me know if you users start to find too many weird posts in the feed again.

I hope this meme is appreciated here as well.

I edited again the Botany feed, with some new tags, and ranking the content by a ranking that takes into account freshness/likes (it was random before), since a lot of non-related and non-academic content was appearing. It is adjustable, so let me know if you are not happy. bsky.app/profile/did:...

I suspect you want this feed. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Been too long since I shared any #Hawaii wildlife! Catching up on processing images, here's a geometry lesson I got from a native Hāpu'u tree fern while visiting the Big Island. :) #endemic #botany

Scientists are not arguing about this nonsense. Please stop this. Many fascinating plant science topics to cover @TheAtlantic THE MYSTERIES OF PLANT “INTELLIGENCE” 🤡 apple.news/ANsyOpmlMQZy...

I just (re)created a Botany feed tracking several Botany terms. The last one was quite limited and impossible to edit. I hope it is useful =)

Botany and Plant Science!

No research is ever finished. We just run out of time, money or motivation.

Science and animal nerds: check out this fun game! Every day, a new mystery animal is posted. You have 20 guesses to narrow down which species it is. (Phylogenetic trees are HARD, y'all.) metazooa.com/game Here are my results from yesterday.

I asked Floema to come and say hello.

I am specimen rejected

Hello world 🌎, is this how we start?
