I had so much fun talking about my favorite plant-pollinator mutualisms today!

The MSU herbarium's Jennifer Apland in action, doing outreach at Bee Palooza.
A booth with the sign "MSU herbarium" in a sunny garden. A woman behind the booth helps another woman and a child do a craft with dried flowers. There is a herbarium specimen on display.

I'm so excited to share my master's research! Do pollinators change their foraging behavior depending on floral and ambient temperatures? Do flowers that thermoregulate experience higher rates of pollinator visitation? Check it out below! 🏵️

Modifying floral infrared reflectance reveals how flower temperature impacts pollinator visitation
Jennifer S. Apland, Matthew H. Koski. This is a plain language summary of a Functional Ecology article which can be found here. The sun emits a wide spectrum of light that plants can use to warm up…

I'm so excited to be seeing signs of spring in central Michigan! Last weekend was my first time seeing snow trillium, and along the trail I saw a few spring beauties. I've very excited to be past the cold (hopefully!)

Poster from my joint Plant Bio seminar a few weeks ago! It was lovely getting to share how important herbaria are to understanding adaptation and how our local herbarium serves the MSU Community!
