Orchid Taxonomy
the identity of the mycorrhizal symbiont of an orchid species is evidence
for its taxonomic position within
Orchidaceae.
Funny that Robert Dressler, the doyen of orchid taxonomy, has never even
mentioned it. What scientific studies or evidence do you have to back this up?
Can you give a specific example?
