Unveiling the Secrets of Oxalis | A Journey Through Evolution and Conservation

Join Dr Kenneth Oberlander and his team at the University of Pretoria as they delve into the evolutionary biology of Oxalis, a plant genus rich in diversity and peculiarities. Discover the dual nature of Oxalis species-from invasive weeds to endangered natives-and how the 1KSA initiative is pivotal in studying these contrasts through genomics.
This video highlights the role of genetics in conservation and how understanding these plants' resilience could influence broader agricultural and environmental strategies.
