Book Description
This investigatory project is taken up as an investigatory study involving studies to analyse significance of Floral Formula to meet taxonomical purposes. This mechanism was used for the first time by Cassel, used along with 4-integer series to represent the different whorls of floral parts to describe characteristics of floral families (Grisebach)[i]. An extension of the existing model to broaden the descriptive capability of the formula was developed and used by Prenner; an argument is also advanced that formulae should be included in formal taxonomic descriptions. It is expected that this exploratory will provide us an ample scope of understanding mechanism involved in developing and using floral formula for facilitating classification of flowering plants. We will also conventional as well as modern ways of presentation of floral formula. Even some of the floral formulae can be decoded to work out a better understanding of the mechanism.

Floral Diagrams
Author: Louis P. Ronse De Craene
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108911196
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 549
Book Description
Floral morphology is key for understanding floral evolution and plant identification. Floral diagrams are two-dimensional representations of flowers that replace extensive descriptions or elaborate drawings to convey information in a clear and unbiased way. Following the same outline as the first edition, this comprehensive guide includes updated and relevant literature, represents the latest phylogeny, and features 28 new diagrams. Diagrams are presented in the context of the most recent classifications, covering a variety of families and illustrating the floral diversity of major groups of plants. A strong didactic tool for observing and understanding floral structures, these diagrams are the obvious counterpart to any genetic study in flowering plants and to the discussion of major adaptations and evolutionary trends of flowers. This book is invaluable for researchers and students working on plant structure, development and systematics, as well as being an important resource for plant ecologists, evolutionary botanists and horticulturists.

Plant Systematics
Author: Gurcharan Singh
Publisher: Science Publishers
ISBN: 9781578083510
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 576
Book Description
"The book strikes a balance between classical fundamental information and the recent developments in plant systematics. Special attention has been devoted to the information on botanical nomenclature, identification and phylogeny of angiosperms with numerous relevant examples and detailed explanation of the important nomenclatural problems. An attempt has been made to present a continuity between orthodox and contemporary identification methods by working on a common example. The methods of identification using computers have been further explored to help better online identification. The chapter on cladistic methods has been totally revised, and molecular systematics discussed in considerable detail."--Jacket.

Author: A. V. S. S. Sambamurty
Publisher: I. K. International Pvt Ltd
ISBN: 8188237167
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 881
Book Description
Taxonomy of Angiosperms is designed for B.Sc. (H) and M.Sc. students of Botany in various universities. The book is divided into two parts; Part I deals with the Principles of Angiosperm Taxonomy and Part II deals with families. The book is amply illustrated with examples. Some of the important chapters in Part I comprise Different Classifications, Nomenclature, Biosystematics, Modern Trends in Taxonomy, Chemotaxonomy, Numerical Taxonomy etc. Part II deals with about 214 families of which 55 are discussed in detail and summarized accounts of the rest are given for advanced students. The book also comes loaded with numerous appendices like comparison of classifications, floral diagrams and floral formulae, questions etc. The book will cater to the needs of Botany students pursuing B.Sc. (H), M.Sc. and related fields like Medical Botany, Pharmacy, Agricultural Botany and Horticulture.
