2015 Apr 23

Erika Bucior, a junior environmental studies major in the School of Humanities and Sciences at Ithaca College, presented her research at the 2015 Northeast Regional American Society of Plant Biologist Conference (NEASPB).

Bucior presented research she conducted on the island of Culebra, Puerto Rico, showing that plant habit and morphological characters are more important than rates of photosynthesis in determining species dominance of an introduced species compared to a native.

Held at Northeastern University, the 2015 NEASPB conference aimed to give professionals the opportunity to connect and share research related to advances in understanding plant secondary metabolism.
