Old Plants, New Tricks: Phenological Research Using Herbarium Specimens [PDF]
Trends in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 The timing of phenological events, such as leaf-out and flowering, strongly influence plant success and their study is vital to understanding how plants will respond to climate change. Phenological research, however, is often limited by the temporal, geographic, or phylogenetic scope of available data.

It is possible to use herbarium specimens to screen for antibacterial components in some plants
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 1999The antibacterial activity of herbarium specimens of Combretum erythrophyllum growing in the Pretoria area and originally collected between 92 and 12 years ago were compared with freshly collected leaves. There were no differences in the minimal inhibitory concentration of the different samples with Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis ...

Poisonous plants cause large losses to the livestock industry through death, reduced production efficiency, reproductive dysfunction, and compromised harvesting of rangeland and pasture forages. Research investigating poisonous plants is complex because there are hundreds of genera of toxic plants representing thousands of species.

The forgotten Hermann Herbarium: A 17th century collection of useful plants from Suriname
Taxon, 2012AbstractThe National Herbarium of the Netherlands houses a 17th century, bound herbarium containing 51 dried specimens from Suriname, which was composed by the well‐known botanist Paul Hermann (1646–1695). This is considered as the oldest documented herbarium collection not only for Suriname but for the Guianas region. Most specimens are accompanied by

Peek into Plant Diversity using Herbarium Specimens (Online!)
2020This exercise introduces herbarium specimens and how they are used for research. Students contribute to specimen "digitization" using the citizen science platform Notes from Nature, and they work with the California specimen database, CCH2.

Automatic Identification of Ivorian Plants from Herbarium Specimens using Deep Learning
International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering, 2022— Plant identification is most often based on visual observations by botanists and systematists. Deep learning has become a tool that provides an alternative to automatic plant identification. Our study consists in implementing a method for plant recognition from herbarium specimens using deep learning classification methods.

Prioritizing regionally rare plant species for conservation using herbarium data
Biodiversity and Conservation, 2013Because the conservation of biodiversity occurs under time and resource constraints, it is necessary to prioritize species most deserving of attention. Natural history collections have been identified as a valuable source of information in applied conservation practice, particularly for species-rich taxa like plants.
