Growing Thistels from seeds
In article , Alan Gould
writes In article , Hussein M. writes Anyway. I just wanted to add to these observations concerning nomenclature that there may well be a _really_ grand re-ordering of this when they start classifying according to DNA and individual genes. It's already begun to happen hasn't it? That sounds a pretty formidable task, but if such is happening I would hope that food plants and natural or wild plants are given equal attention to floral and exotic. It is precisely the 'natural or wild plants' which are the subject of the classification. The aim, as ever in taxonomy, is to get closer and closer to the natural evolution of plants The Cruciferae family, particularly the brassicaceae are long overdue for revision and re-classification IMHO. What particular aspects worry you? -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/garden/ |
