Descrição

Hong Kong’s emblem is the beautiful Bauhinia flower and appears on the Hong Kong flag and currency. This is the flower of the orchid tree Bauhinia blakeana, which was first discovered in Hong Kong. What many people may not know is that it is a sterile hybrid, and how and why it ended up in Hong Kong is shrouded in mystery. It is thought that the species is likely a hybrid of two local species, Bauhinia variegata and Bauhinia purpurea, but this had yet to be confirmed at a genomic scale.One of the best ways to help uncover the secrets of any organism is by understanding its genetic makeup. Genomics, sequencing of the genetic code of organisms, provides a complete look into the genetic complement of any species. It is also one of the key technologies that will define the 21st century. By bringing together the emblematic and mysterious Bauhinia flower and the power and knowledge of genome technology, we can build a bridge between science and community— enlightening our understanding of this plant’s interesting biology and informing and educating the public about this exciting and rapidly advancing field.To build such a collaborative endeavor, BauhiniaGenome launched the Hong Kong genome project through which they sequenced the genome of the Hong Kong emblem to better understand where it came from; train local students to assemble and analyse the data — crucial skills needed for this field to advance; and engage the public through local pride.

Métodos de Amostragem

Participants submit observations through the website or social media. The website form asks which species have you seen, as well as asks for information on location, other government identifiers, and flowing/seeding status. It can also collect misc information like related iNaturalist links. Through social media like Twitter/X or Instagram participants can take a photograph of the Bauhinia and post it with the hashtag #BauhiniaWatch, adding which type of Bauhinia they think it is and any other relevant details.

Área de Estudo Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) is located on the southern coast of mainland China at 22.3193° N, 114.1694° E, at the northern end of the South China Sea.
Controle de Qualidade The Bauhinia Project team check the submissions, if there is linked iNaturalist data, and if the likely location and status sounds plausible.

Descrição dos passos do método:

  1. A citizen scientist submits Bauhinia observation data through the website and social media and this is then curated and shared to GBIF.
