Tiny Tool
Modern pollen as a tool for paleoecological research (talk in Spanish)
Abril 25, 2023
Each plant produces a particular type of pollen, which means that it has unique characteristics that can be used to identify the species to which it belongs.
Frog fertility clinic
Artificial fertilization key to rescuing Panama’s endangered frogs from extinction
Abril 27, 2023
Animals in captivity may have trouble breeding, so to keep amphibian species from dying out, researchers are discovering new ways to help them reproduce.
Bat babble
Mother bats use baby talk to communicate with their pups
Agosto 26, 2020
Just as humans with their babies, adult female bats change their vocalizations when interacting with “babbling” pups, which could be interpreted as positive feedback to their offspring during vocal practice
In community
Community Reforestation:Action-Based Participatory Science
Julio 31, 2023
Implementing reforestation projects to encourage forest protection and recovery.
A dilemma
Escaping or resisting disease: the dilemma of a tropical tree
Septiembre 28, 2023
How does a tree escape or resist disease?
Back from the dead
Tropical tree fern repurposes its dead leaves
Febrero 26, 2024
A species of tree fern found only in Panama uses ‘zombie leaves’ or reanimated dead leaf fronds, and turns them into root structures that feed the mother plant.
Bryophytes
Tiny plants in a big changing world
Febrero 22, 2021
The smallest and possibly most ancient terrestrial plants, bryophytes are an important part of our environment, but in the tropics, there is still much to learn about them.
Egged on
How frogs’ superpowers may have led to life on land
Julio 31, 2024
Frogs lay eggs both in the water and in jelly-like masses on plants. Could their flexible behavior help explain how vertebrates moved from life in ocean to life on land?
Red-eyed treefrogs
Red-eyed treefrog eggs hatch a plan to escape warming temperatures
Julio 12, 2024
A new study from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) shows that red-eyed treefrog embryos hatch early when exposed to high ammonia levels — an environmental cue that it’s too hot and dry for the eggs to survive.
