Martino Adamo, a plant researcher, and Stefano Mammola, an ecologist, conducted an analysis on scientific papers about 113 plant species growing in the Southwestern Alps. Their goal is to see if the physical features of plants are contributing factors to the number of scientific studies about them.
The duo found that most species with a higher risk of extinction are the ones less studied. The external appearance of plants is one of the major contributors to this.
Adamo and Mammola’s research suggests that pleasant-looking species have a higher appearance in scientific journals than the unconventional or unattractive ones. For example, blue flowers are more likely to be studied than those plants with brown or green-colored blooms.
