Researchers using the Biochemistry facilities within the Jodrell Laboratory (Kew site) study the small molecules in plants and fungi to demonstrate the value plant and fungal chemodiversity, for example as a source of useful compounds. An existing multimode plate reader that supports this research is obsolete and requires replacement. (2) Microbiology. An increased focus on fungal biodiversity at RBG Kew …
