Description:
Researchers at Chicago Botanic Garden been monitoring and managing populations of the Forker Aster (Eurybia furcata or Aster furcata) for decades. They observed that this species produced very few viable seed and sought to understand why. In this video, you will learn how researchers used field mating experiments and genetic augmentation to ultimately improve seed set in wild populations of this rare species.

This video presents a case study of an extremely rare Hawaiian species, Brighamia insignis, which no longer can depend on its native pollinators in the wild. Researchers at National Tropical Botanical Garden conducted breeding system experiments to evaluate the self compatibility of this species in a greenhouse setting. This approach can be utilized by researchers at botanic gardens to unc")

She travels from leaf to leaf and plant to plant, typically depositing no more than one egg per leaf and only one or two eggs per plant. It is thought that when the female lands on a leaf she is testing the plant for suitability with the sensors on her feet that are called tarsi. She curls her abdomen around, ovipositing a tiny golden drop that is no larger than a pinhead.nnIn the short video")
