Linnaeus at 300

So - normally I would not post anything here regarding stuff in Nature, due to Nature's incomplete Open Access policies but I am doing so here because the relevant material is 50-50 open/closed. They material I refer to is a pretty interesting set of articles in the latest issue celebrating the 300th birthday of some guy named Linnaeus.

Among the articles some are free access some are not. Below is the list of commentaries/news/reviews and info on their accessibility. I am particularly fond of the one by John Whitfield (and not just because I am in it). Unfortunately it is not "Free Access." But it does have some interesting tidbits on "phylogenomics" --- so if you have access - check it out. If not, well post something to his blog complaining about that.
