Plant Taxonomy: The Identities of Plants

Virtual Lecture – Zoom

Sabrina Sewell, botanist Taxonomy is the fundamental branch of science that names and classifies all elements of the world around us, including living things. A plant taxonomist specializes in determining groupings, relationships, and, ultimately, the names and identities of plants. This process utilizes pertinent data such as phylogenetics, phytogeography, and phenology, but most essentially, plant...
