In addition to a number of formal articles in each issue there is also an updated list of Internet resources on desertification. This site is maintained and hosted by the Office of Arid Lands Studies, College of Agriculture, University of Arizona, Tucson. In addition to marking the progress made during the past six years since the last IBC, the herbarium curators of the world meet to discuss the rules of nomenclature. This newly-opened site is where the information about the IBC will be posted. Site by the IBC organizing committee, hosted by the Missouri Botanical Garden.
Links are well annotated and carefully chosen.
A different genus is featured each week on this site, giving information about the plant, its growth habit, the etymology of the plant name, interesting notes, and selected links to images and references elsewhere. Technically well constructed, the pages should attract repeat visits. Featured are the comparative curvature response of dark-grown Arabidopsis , a model angiosperm, to unilateral light, with and without prior exposure to red light, as viewed in IR light and floral anthesis of a lily. Instructions are also available to make your own IR color camera from an inexpensive Connectix QuickCam camera. A small, but wide bandwidth site by Roger P.
