Check our new publication about shifted spring ephemeral pollination window impacted by flowering time, pollinator occurrence, and canopy closure under climate change! #phenology #springbeauty #phenologicalmismatch #climatechange @parklab.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Fig. 1 The window for spring ephemerals’ pollination is constrained by the timing of pollinator activity and canopy closure. Curves represent the hypothetical progression of flowering (pink), pollinator activity (yellow), and canopy development (green) in a forest community through time. Dotted lines delineate the window of time during which pollination can occur. Artwork by Gabriela Sincich.

🚨New paper alert🚨 Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology doi.org/10.1002/ppp3.7… This multi-institutional effort between students and expert palynologists to digitize pollen from 12,000 species and more than 500 fossil pollen slides @plantspeopleplanet.bsky.social

Get ready for the TMS Palynology Talks Speaker Series, starting in Sep. 22, 2025. We are excited to bring the palynological communitiy together to learn about the latests advantages and findings in this field. STAY TUNE FOR MORE INFORMATION

Researchers in #ScienceAdvances have uncovered a previously unknown genetic branch of ancient hunter-gatherers local to the Colombian land bridge. Learn more: scim.ag/4mEsGNL

A 6000-year-long genomic transect from the Bogotá Altiplano reveals multiple genetic shifts in the demographic history of Colombia

The hunter-gatherer gene pool of the Bogotá Altiplano was replaced by Central American ancestry at least 2000 years ago.

As a new member of Bluesky, I would like to start by sharing this 3D reconstruction of a fossil palm, Grimsdalea magnaclavata, characterized by its clavas (nail-like structures). This pollen grain was prevalent in the Neotropics during the Miocene.
