Training and Collection of Angiosperms in the Morowali Nature Reserve
Project summary:
Sulawesi recorded as many as more than 120 Angiosperm families from the tree group, while the Angiosperm group not only from the tree group but from the herbaceous or wet trunk group. The development of human resources in the field of plant taxonomy is also very important in increasing or revealing the diversity of plant species in Sulawesi. Therefore, to complete the data on flowering plants in Sulawesi, it is necessary to conduct training and collection of Angiosperms.
