SUMMARY:Phillippa Alvarez - 'The bottleneck and the beginning of the plant universe: thermal tolerance in the early stages of a plant’s lifecycle'
DESCRIPTION:A plant will go through many stressors in its’ life\, but is there a point in its’ lifecycle it is most vulnerable to stress\, particularly heat stress? This talk looks at the thermal tolerance of seeds\, freshly sprouted germinants and seedlings. \nPip is the Seedbank Technical Officer here at ANBG. In her spare time\, she is working on the final steps of her PhD thesis looking at thermal tolerance in the early life stages of plants from extreme biomes. Her work\, in both instances\, hopes to shed some light into best seed conservation practices. \nBookings open a month before the talk.  \nBooking Link: https://www.trybooking.com/CXTPE \n
