This is a quick survey on why people choose to study plant science. Fellow botanists do fill it out, especially field botanists. I'm not sure if I went to university now that I would end up on the same path, because of changes to field teaching at universities.

New paper out! We analysed the progeny of a single selfed hemp plant for genetic and phenotypic variability. Turns out it's substantial, with many genotype-phenotype associations established using "GSAS". nature.com/articles/s4159…
