Bauhinia Genome Presents: Bauhinia Watch

簡介

Hong Kong’s emblem is the beautiful Bauhinia flower and appears on the Hong Kong flag and currency. This is the flower of the orchid tree Bauhinia blakeana, which was first discovered in Hong Kong. What many people may not know is that it is a sterile hybrid, and how and why it ended up in Hong Kong is shrouded in mystery. It is thought that the species is likely a hybrid of two local species, Bauhinia variegata and Bauhinia purpurea, but this had yet to be confirmed at a genomic scale.
