Stranger Plants celebrates some of the strangest plants we love, with bold illustrations created by BSA’s own Catrina Adams. Each shirt features plant artwork on the front and a “concert-style” back listing all featured species by their common and scientific names. These shirts come in the retro colorblock tee with 5 different sleeve color options. The shirts are made from sustainable materials and manufactured with environmentally conscious practices. In addition to Stranger Plants shirts, the store also includes cozy #IamaBotanist beanies and classic BSA logo apparel seen above and available in several colors for each style. |

APPS SPECIAL ISSUE CALL FOR PAPERS
“Plant genome skimming: Special uses and future potential”
Proposal Submission Deadline: March 16, 2026
Applications in Plant Sciences (APPS) is accepting proposals for a special issue: “Plant genome skimming: Special uses and future potential.” Genome skimming is used to efficiently obtain high-copy-number genomic sequences, such as organellar genomes and repetitive nuclear elements, as well as single-copy nuclear DNA, from a biological sample. Recent improvements in sequencing technology mean that cost-effective sequencing can now be performed at greater depth, allowing large parts of the nuclear genome to be assembled from genome skimming data. Genome skimming has found uses including phylogenetics, phylogeography, metagenomics, pathogen diagnostics, biodiversity assessments, and eDNA surveys. This special issue will highlight new approaches, tools, databases, software, and pipelines for use in acquiring and analyzing genome skimming data.
