Floral Somatoray helps, but still sucks because it either never gets researched till way past the point of being useful, or the miners are slow, or whatever. If it was a tool that was available at the start would be one thing, but as it stands it's almost always faster to just do it the hard way and pray to RNGsus to get good mutations.
That being said, chemistry is still somewhat useful to botany for saltpetre and diethylamine fertilizer, although truth be told more than half the time I just 'obtain' my own chem dispenser for it since the recipes are so simple.
I'd almost like it if it was the other way around. There are loads of cool things botany can produce for chemistry(check out the reagents on omega weed and ambrosia deus), but it seems like whenever I provide them no one cares and it goes unused. Then things get boring, and all that's left besides growing food for the chef is to harass everyone with bluespace tomatoes.
Edit: Also waiting on R&D and miners for Botanogenetic Shears is an absolute bitch.
Edit edit: Hell, I'd say having access to the shears is way more important for high level botany than the Floral Somatoray. It's a pain in the ass, but you will eventually get the mutation you want. The inability to remove traits is absolutely crippling to a botanists ability to create any kind of precise recipe.
