    New Insights into Plant Evolution: Scientists Unveil Groundbreaking DNA Tree of Life for Flowering Plants

    Broke On: Saturday, 11 May 2024 Scientists from the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, Heidelberg University, and Kunming Institute of Botany led a global collaboration to create a comprehensive DNA tree of life for flowering plants. The project includes data from over 9,500 species and almost 8,000 genera. This groundbreaking study provides new insights into plant evolution and makes the data freely available for research in various scientific fields. The flowering plant tree of life allows us to understand how different species are related, identify changes (mutations) that accumulate over time, and uncover new medicinal compounds and conservation strategies.
