Hello from Columbus, Ohio
Hi, all. I'm working on my PhD in orchid systematics and finished my first collection field trip to Australia in February. Had a lovely time for six weeks there. So hot and dry, though, that several of the species I was after decided to skip this year completely.
I'm working on the phylogeny of the hyacinth orchids (Dipodium) and the subtribe Cymbidiinae.
I would share photos from my trip, but I guess I need five posts before I can use that function.
Oh, and if anyone out there has any lead on where I can obtain leaf material for DNA analysis of Porphyroglottis maxwelliae, I'd love to hear from you. This species has never before been included in a molecular phylogeny of the orchids and might help fill in the missing data.
Cheers,
Ryan

Thanks, Katrina. I did send in a membership application for the Central Ohio Orchid Society about a week ago. Unfortunately, I have a standing weekly meeting on Thursday evenings so I'm not sure if I could ever attend a meeting. Perhaps I can get out of that meeting once in a while, but not every month.
Cheers! |
