What happens when an 'extinct' plant species is rediscovered?
We a casestudy Atriplex, and found...not much
Despite being 'rediscovered' three times in the last decade Atriplex acutiloba remains listed as extinct. And it isn't alone. Nor is the phenomenon new.

We Need a Process for Managing and Reassessing Rediscovered Species: A Case Study With the ‘Extinct’ Atriplex acutiloba
Rediscovery of extinct species is an exciting prospect and, surprisingly, a common reason for changes to species' listings. In Australia, however, species declared ‘extinct’ are afforded no legal pro....

To get started we are launching a citizen science project on iNaturalist where anyone can contribute images of honeybees or native pollinators visiting native flowers so we can have a baseline for how flower visitation changes before and after varroa mite reaches different parts of the country 4/5

Honeybee visitation and native plant pollination Australia What insect pollinators are visiting flowers in your area? Are the pollinators European honeybees or are they something else? As varroa mite ...

Varroa mite arriving in Australia has been a big worry for agriculture and bee keeping but it will also result in a massive decline in feral honeybee populations. This will affect many native plant species visited by honeybees, our new paper aimed to understand what those effects might be 1/5
A new #OpenAccess article in #AusJBotany identifies potential consequences of the spread of varroa mite and highlights the large knowledge gaps that currently limit understanding of the subsequent impacts on the Australian flora.

Pollen viability and stigma receptivity- very fun methods (and new for me) being used as part of an attempted genetic rescue of a sterile, clonal species.
Testing stigma receptivity using Hydrogen peroxide - air bubbles show receptive
Germinated viable pollen and glowing pollen using FDA stain
