  • Notes

    Updated Aug 2013. The ERDB Botany Laboratory and Herbarium was established to serve as a depository facility of plant specimens collected during the implementation of R&D projects, such as vegetation analysis by ERDB researchers. Also the laboratory received duplicates of plant specimens submitted and referred to by researchers from academe and other research institutions which eventually became a property of the laboratory as they bear permanent herbarium number and is recorded in the laboratory\'s accession book. The herbarium also comprises valuable data on plant habit, phenology and associations of a particular collection site and the collector.
