U.S.-China Cooperative Research: Origins and Evolution of Major Characteristic Elements and Key Taxa in East Asian Flora

0074295曼彻斯特这是佛罗里达大学的Steven Manchester博士和大卫Dicher博士与中国科学院植物研究所的Zhiduan Xhen博士和Lu Anming博士之间的三年合作计划。 本项目将研究东亚植物群主要特征成分和关键类群的起源和演化。 美国和中国的研究人员在古植物学领域都是杰出的。 该项目包括为美国和中国学生提供培训机会，并可以促进我们对许多曾经广泛分布的植物群体的起源和迁移方向的理解，这些植物现在仅限于东亚。 中国科学院、国家自然科学基金委员会和美国国家科学基金会共同支持该项目。

0074295ManchesterThis is a three cooperative year proposal between Dr. Steven Manchester and Dr. David Dicher of the University of Florida and Dr. Zhiduan Xhen and Dr. Lu Anming of the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences. This project will study the origins and evolution of major characteristic elements and key taxa in East Asian Flora. Both the U.S. and Chinese researchers are outstanding in the field of paleobotany. This project includes training opportunities for both U.S. and Chinese students, and can advance our understanding of the origins and direction of migration of many groups of once widespread plants that are now restricted to eastern Asia. The Chinese Academy of Science, the Natural Science Foundation of China and the NSF jointly support this project.
