Plants in the genus Tradescantia
include Spiderworts and Wandering Jew. They are very easy to care
for and propagate.
Dr. Timothy Evans of Hope College in Holland, Michigan
has been using Tradescantia in his research studies. His
current research uses molecular markers to: 1) determine phylogenetic
relationships among species of Tradescantia; and 2) detect and
quantify hybridization and introgression in Tradescantia. This
Web page shows the collection of various Tradescantia in
different parts of the United States and information about the uses of Tradescantis
in various research projects.
