As part of a broader effort to investigate genomic diversity and evolutionary patterns within the Brassicales, my recent research has focused on Tiganophyton karasense, a monotypic genus endemic to the arid Karas Region of southern Namibia. This species, described only in 2020, is phylogenetically i
We collected fresh leaf tissue for DNA and RNA extraction to generate a high-quality

McGuire Center staff and volunteers were excited to make their first two trips to UF’s new DeLuca Preserve in Osceola County, Florida. We are surveying the moth and butterfly fauna of this 27,000-acre Preserve and gathering baseline data for long-term monitoring of rare and declining taxa. Data may
