Is there a book anyone here knows about that lists a few hundred (or thousand) Latin binomials and their translation?

The Gardener’s Botanical by Princeton is so close to what I want, but requires too much flipping back and forth (each Latin name is translated separately).

I understand the Princeton publication eliminated redundancies (and maybe that’s why the type I’m looking for is possibly non-existent) but I feel that having each plant name’s genus defined followed by a list of species (name and translation) within said genus would aid with understanding.

Any ideas? Do I at least make sense? Amateur here :)

From what i know Inbreeding Depression is basically proven for Plants that arent Selfpollinators, if they are reproduced with few Individuals for dozens of Generations.

I also know that there are deleterious Alleles , and heightend Amount of Mutations that cause Inbreeding Depression.

I preserve old Strains as Hobby, and my Colleague-Preservationist simply tell me if one selects for the right individuals then deleterious Alleles can be avoided.

As a perfectionist i have problems to believe thats 100.00 Percent possible.

Tiny Degredations might make old Strains very unapealing to the Conaisseurs and Masses.

Im thankful for precise , educated Anwsers Biologists!

The stigmas, which usually grow atop the stylus, now grew on the side of it. Why did this happen? Should I worry?

I’m working on a project and reviewing the seed mixes that are being used for restoration. I noticed that they included three non-native plants & grasses because sometimes non-natives can outcompete invasives w/o impacting the native population. This is just something I’ve heard.

How do we feel about using non-native plants in restoration mixes to combat invasive plants?

I personally don’t think it’s a good idea and makes me wonder out of the plethora of native plants in our region (northern Nevada/tahoe area) there has to be some native plants that can be used instead.

Bit of an odd angle, but I've been making a mod for Minecraft and their addition of mangroves and the mangroves propagule has me wanting to add something similar of my own... but it should also be tasty. Would labeling a fruit under the name 'propagule' be weird/incorrect? I've tried looking around a bit and it seems okay, also ChatGPT was on board, but I wanted to ask actual plant nerds before I went full send.

I'm looking for Strongylodon macrobotrys seeds to grow and then add to my college's herbarium but I'm having trouble figuring out a reputable source to get them. Any recommendations or is it pretty futile?

What gives? They've removed all information above family? Is there a viewing of the Order and stuff above that anymore?

Am I missing something? Now, instead of a chart display, you have to click on "view more" or whatever and the genus and family are truncated there under the description. But I want the entire taxonomy chart? Is there a way to bring this feature back with a setting?

Hi y’all, I made a little infographic on polyploidy in plants. I know it’s pretty simplistic, but I’ve done my best to make sure it’s accurate!

Hopefully I didn’t get anything wrong this time, but if I did please correct me!

The tall structure on the right is just a metal pole that just happens to be next to the plant

I've been raising plants for a long time, but my knowledge of their biology is overall surface level at best. This double-flower amaryllis I have appears to have the stamina attached to the petals. Some of the other flowers on this same stalk have normal looking stamina. Is this normal, or have I happened upon a bit of a "mutant?"

I was on a hike and spotted some nice flowers (which I presume to be V. helleri - any corrections welcome) which are a few km from my residence. Just thought I'd share 🙂

Found these botanical prints of plants from the Amazons, the entire book is here, around 80 prints. The pages aren’t binded together.

Some pages edges are a bit torn up, there is some evidence of termite holes here and there. Some pages are in very good condition, with good edges and no holes.

Any ideas of value and/or how to go about selling if I decide to sell them?

I've been studying high school level plant anatomy, and while studying anatomy of a dicot leaf(dorsiventral), I saw it in a lot of diagrams online that said the upper/adaxial side was ventral and abaxial side was dorsal...

But I'm confused because on seeing the definition of dorsal once again, I found it refers to back of an organism/ upper facing side

Please help me out by solving my doubt, thank you

I started collecting melt water from snow to water the plants, having previously filtered out all the garbage that comes across there. But after a while, sediment appears on the bottles. Bacteria, fungi?

Hello, I am looking to remove large swaths of invasive blackberry in my yard, which borders on a stream running directly into a lake. In my research, I have found that carefully brushing the cut stems of the blackberry with an herbicide is effective at killing the rhizomes without harming the surrounding plants. This is key because they are surrounded by natives that I am trying to restore. However, I am very cautious about using herbicide due to the sensitive wetland and stream ecosystems the invaders are occupying. Do herbicides leach out from roots? How are they processed within the systems of the plant if applied in this manner? Thank you very much for your help!

I've been struggling to find information about Gall Wasps on Google, so I thought I'd ask here. Why is it that Galls affect predominantly oak trees? Is there a chemical difference in Oaks that makes them more susceptible? Also I'm curious to know if there are any galls occuring on soybean family plants, specifically Leiosperma in the Midwest. Because of the plant-focused nature of my question, I hope it's okay that I posted this here instead of in r/Entomology. Could someone please answer my questions or point me toward resources that could aid my research into galls?

Thought yall would like to see!

Hey, so Im (presumably) growing some wollemia seeds, but I'm still not 100% sure they're legit.

They've started growing the cotelydons and they look very different from other "pines" like pins ponderosa which I'm usually growing.

But I couldn't find any pictures of wollemia in that state, does anyone here know what the cotelydons are supposed to look like?

I need a botanist to tell me if this is a single tree that is split or if it is two trees fused together. I saw it on my hike today. Thanks!

Hey all! One of my technicians this past summer was really interested in plant taxonomy. Unfortunately, her school doesn't have a robust botany dept so she isn't able to take systematics courses. I was wondering if anyone here knew of online resources or courses so she can learn more about plant ID and knowing more plant family characteristics. Please let me know, thanks 😊
