Abstract
In this booklet we seek to illustrate, through selected examples, how a combination of Kew’s extensive collections, databases, scientific expertise and global partnerships have enabled us to make an invaluable and relevant contribution to research, conservation and training in plant and fungal science, addressing some of the biggest challenges facing the global population.
We hope to illustrate something of the breadth and coverage of Kew Science ranging from the climate resilience of Arabica coffee to the role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in Europe’s forests; from the conservation impacts of the Millennium Seed Bank Partnership to taxonomy training to tackle critical skills shortages.
