In 1860 #Saxifraga tombeanensis from Monte Tombea was sampled and preserved in #herbaria. 160 years later, Marco Cannella and Yasaman Ranjbaran sampled this endemic species again to study its #genomic structure. #plants #biodiversity #conservationbiodiversity #mountain #nature

Our #sampling work continues with some species of #Pinguicula. This is a #carnivore plant genus, including species with #chasmophite growing habitat. #biodiversity #carnivoreplant #plant #fieldwork #conservation #alpinebiodiversity #nature #hiking #exploring

Last Saturday we took part in #Science4All. Thanks to the activities realised by Valentina for her master's thesis project, we had fun explaining #plant biodiversity and its importance. Science #communication is essential to promote #biodiversity conservation actions.

COMING SOON: We were invited by @biosphaera to #FESAV2023 on 5th November. For more information: fesav.it/evento/confere… - fesav.it/evento/botanic… #science #scientistlife #lossofbiodiversity #botanicgarden #biodiversity #plants #pollination #herbarium #microalgae #technology

Thrilled to reveal the first details of our symposium (with Marnix Medema) at #IMC12 in Maastricht. Explore captivating insights on the topic with TheKellerLab Heng Chooi KateDuncan & Jerome #fungi #naturalProducts #genomeMining —see you there!

Martedì 20 febbraio, alle ore 17, l’Orto botanico ospita l'incontro pubblico “Il ruolo degli orti botanici tra salvaguardia della biodiversità e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale”. Ingresso libero, su prenotazione: bit.ly/biodiversita-p…

Join us this Tuesday at 5pm as UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳’s iconic botanic gardens – Kew, Singapore, and Padua – unite to delve into the crucial mission of preserving biodiversity and cultural heritage. #UNESCO #Conservation #SingaporeBotanicGardens KewGardens m.ortobotanicopd.it/it/tra-biodive…

Our article on #terpene #biosynthetic genes in #lichen #genomes is out now! We mined ~100 genomes, identifying & clustering these genes, & found 2 widely distributed terpene clusters #SqualeneSynthases #antiSMASH #BiGSCAPE #Metabolites #phylogenomics doi.org/10.1186/s12864…

Valeria is exploring the world of Saxifraga tombeanensis, an #endemic Italian #plant, during her internship at Orto botanico di Padova. She's collaborating with Fabio Marroni and LIFE SEEDFORCE to uncover the #genetic secrets of this species. Stay tuned for updates!

Thrilled to share our latest New Phytologist publication! We used #GenomeMining to test if #lichen-forming fungi have more #biosynthetic potential than related #fungi. Curious about the results?

Are #lichens truly a treasure chest of #naturalproducts compared to non-lichenized #fungi? We put this to the test using #BGC count as a proxy across ~400 #genomes Spoiler alert: They absolutely are! #PKSs #secondaryMetabolites Article link: tinyurl.com/ynph7npe Department of Biology – University of Padova
