Extra credit opportunity (2.5% of 1 exam)
Come see Becky Irwin from Dartmouth speak about: "The role of floral traits in pollination and plant defense," this Friday at 2:30 PM in 112 TBL.
Becky is interested in multispecies interactions-- particularly pollination biology biology. Her recent papers include those on the microevolution in the wild radish in response to pollinator-medated selection, linking economics to the distribution of exotic plants, and the community and evolutionary ecology of nectar. One fascinating feature of flowers that she has studied is toxic nectar!
