DNA Bank
The DNA Bank of The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) serves as the
repository for samples of frozen tissue and genomic DNA for research
conducted in our molecular systematics and genomics laboratories by Garden
scientists, graduate students, visiting scholars, and interns. In support of
the Garden's mission to document biodiversity, the aim of the DNA Bank is to
house samples in plant and fungal groups studied by Garden scientists, as
well as other taxa from the diverse geographic regions in which our staff
works. The DNA Bank will accept existing collections from other institutions
and individuals provided that they are relevant to and consistent with our
goals, acquisition policy, and that a voucher specimen is deposited in an
herbarium with an active loan program, preferably the William and Lynda
Steere Herbarium of NYBG. Any herbarium specimen obtained this way that is
duplicated in the NYBG herbarium will be dispersed to another interested
herbarium. Please contact Dr. Lisa M. Campbell, Plant Research Laboratory, The
New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY 10458 (lcampbell@nybg.org) prior to
sending any specimens.
