September 2007 Plenarvortrag-Abstract Botany and Botanical Institutions at Hamburg Poppendieck, Hans-Helmut Universität Hamburg, Germany Poppendieck@botanik.uni-hamburg.de Scientific botany at Hamburg started with the Renaissance scholar Joachium Jungius (1587-1657) whose morphological treatises influenced John Ray and Linnaeus. The botanical garden, founded in 1821, is the oldest botanical institution of Hamburg. It started as a private public partnership, only loosely connected to academic teaching. However, its scientific and horticultural impact was considerable due to the activities of its directors J.G.C. Lehmann and H.G. Reichenbach and to associated gentlemen scientists like O.W. Sonder and W. Klatt. Botany grew and diversified at Hamburg in the late 19th century due to the trade activities of the city and Germany's colonial commitment. In 1901, the botanical garden and the botanical museum were combined to form the unique "Botanische Staatsinstitute" which also comprised the herbarium, the phytosanitary station and other branches of economic botany. They were divided into institutes for general and applied botany in 1912 and became part of the science faculty when the Hamburg University was founded in 1919. The botanical garden was moved to the West of the city in 1971, to be followed by the botanical institutes. Today, after a chequered history, all botanical institutions of Hamburg are combined into the Biozentrum Klein-Flottbek.
