Capacity building needed to reap the benefits of access to biodiversity collections

Animating blossom: Time‐lapse to encourage plant awareness in the YouTube era
Time‐lapse videos can effectively capture key traits of flower blossoms, such as color, 3D structure, and temporal changes, making them valuable complements to herbarium specimens and other botanical collections. Despite the abundance of such videos on YouTube, most provide no ecological and botanical insights.
