ReplyDeleteHi, Andy. I have some fruits of an interesting plant called Halophytum that I collected in Argentina earlier this year. It's a very narrowly distributed species and not related closely to anything extant. The weird thing is the fruits develop sunken into the stem, i.e., completely surrounded by stem tissue. The only other plant group to do this is the cacti. Anyway, this species is very poorly known to science and I think it could be cool to take a look inside. I'm at Brown U. down in Providence, let me know if you are interested. mogburn at brown dot edu.
ReplyDeleteooh! what about a leek!
ReplyDeleteHi Andy Ellison,
ReplyDeleteYou’re fruit scans are beautiful and uncanny.
My name is Ashley Duong, and I am working for the Montreal-based film company, Eyesteelfilm. We are making a film about fruit, and we have an idea for an animation that could possibly use some of your MRI scans (we would just need the MRI data sources). Would you be interested in getting involved (with proper crediting, of course)? How do I contact you? If you have any questions, please email at ashley@eyesteelfilm.com.
Thanks very much,
Ashley
