| Description |
Katy Evans, who is studying the pollination ecology of Edamame Soybeans, took a series of shots of said soy at our lab. In this series you will see varieties of complete and dissected flowers of Edamames. Farmers know that soybeans are self-pollinated (Edamame is just variety of regular old soybeans, ditto Titan soybeans (note: I just threw Titan soybeans in as extra soybean credit....look those up I just learned about them). But soybeans have flowers for a reason and they attract bees, sometimes quite a few, though you won't notice them because soybean flowers are shy and sit below their canopy, but they are there. Soy yield increases with visitation by bees. So there is a story here that impacts both the market and the bees (given the acreages involved this could be BIG!), but we know little of either detail. Katy has already found all sorts of interesting edamame pollination things but you will have to wait for the publication to learn about them. Oh, check the photos out for hidden insect images. There were thrips and plant bugs running about leaving their ghost images here and there. 14:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC)14:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC){{{{{{0}}}}}}14:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC)14:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC) All photographs are public domain, feel free to download and use as you wish.
We Are Made One with What We Touch and See We are resolved into the supreme air, We are made one with what we touch and see, With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair, With our young lives each spring impassioned tree Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change. - Oscar Wilde
