This growth form is often considered an adaptation to seasonal climates, including Mediterranean ecosystems and temperate regions with prolonged freezing. In this talk, I will explore the remarkable morphological diversity of underground storage organs, the broad taxonomic range of geophytic plants, and what this diversity reveals about their evolutionary responses to climatic seasonality. I will also highlight how geophytes have diversified and dispersed across landscapes—from the high elevations of the Andean Cordillera to the Pacific Northwest.</span><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#757575"></span></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt"><div align="center"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background:#285513;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td style="padding:13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt;border-radius:3px"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif"><a href="https://calbotsoc.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c632809fa2b75323f2418bb1e&id=f368b35de8&e=b69ac08598" target="_blank" title="Information and Zoom Link"><b><span style="color:white;letter-spacing:-.4pt;text-decoration:none">Information and Zoom Link</span></b></a> </span></p></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:6.75pt 6.75pt 6.75pt 6.75pt"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 6.75pt 0in 6.75pt;min-width:100%;float:left"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><img border="0" width="372" id="_x0000_i1027" src="https://mcusercontent.com/c632809fa2b75323f2418bb1e/images/d7a9808d-370a-b860-0dcf-e83fb2c15057.png"></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:6.75pt 0in 0in 0in"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td width="600" valign="top" style="width:6.25in;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in;max-width:100%;min-width:100%;float:left"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;word-break:break-word"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 13.5pt 6.75pt 13.5pt"><h3 align="center" style="text-align:center"><strong><span style="font-size:11.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Lucida Sans Unicode",sans-serif;color:black">BIO</span></strong></h3><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;line-height:125%"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:125%;font-family:"Lucida Sans Unicode",sans-serif;color:black">Dr. Carrie M.
