You will get suggestions as you type in your query, they tell you what your query will return, and you can select one for an exact match.
The query is not case sensitive.
This search uses an automatic wild card at the end of the query to match all endings (unless the query is in double quotes).
The query is an ordered set of search terms, so viola l. will match "Viola L." and "Viola L. sect Viola."
Putting double quotes around your entire query will cause it to be matched exactly (except case). e.g. "Viola L." will match just Viola L.
You can use a % as a wild card inside the search query e.g. hakea elon% be or "hakea % var. elon% benth." to find "Hakea ceratophylla var. elongata Benth."

Text: identifier: IF 900366
Text: DNA sequence: from holotype: GenBank OQ626870 (tef1a).
Etymology: "Named after Gerty Theresa Cori (née Radnitz; 1896−1957) and Carl Ferdinand Cori (1896−1984), Czech-born American biochemists, who became the third couple to win the Nobel Prize in 1947. Gerty and Carl Cori received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery of the metabolic pathway in which glucose breaks down and forms lactate in the muscles, is converted to back to glucose in the liver, and transported back to the muscle and is metabolised back to lactate (known as the Cori cycle)."
