What makes the manna, or sap, of Eucalyptus viminalis (white gum) so delicious to the endangered forty-spotted pardalote? And where are these tasty trees? University of Tasmania PhD candidate Erin Bok is investigating. https://t.co/Zlhd3WYEIR

The forty-spotted pardalote is a small, rare bird, unique to Tasmania. It is thought there could be less than 1,000 left. But one young scientist believes the key to their survival lies in one of...

A new instalment in the fascinating story of a Eucalyptus hybrid zone from @Sciences_UTAS’s Thais Pfeilsticker et al. (including @tassiebeck @_PAHarrison). Interesting genetic control of heterochrony and heteroblasty, first outlined by @robw2690, back in…the day…😁 #eucalypts

Well done Tom and the rest of the team!
Congrats to @arcforestvalue researcher Dr Tom Baker on his recent article about temporal, environmental and spatial changes in the effect of windbreaks on pasture microclimate. Great collaboration with Private Forests Tasmania and @CSIRO #research @UTAS_

Great example of using scientific knowledge to address real-world issues to improve on-ground applications. Great team behind this work: @_PAHarrison, Thomas Baker, Dot Steane, Mark Neyland, and industry partner Dean Williams from Sustainable Timbers Tasmania
Here's a great example of scientific knowledge being turned into practical policy, with a key industry partner Sustainable Timber Tasmania adopting new seeds zones developed by @arcforestvalue researchers. Well done to everyone involved @_PAHarrison
