Growing Thistels from seeds
In article , Alan Gould
writes Secondly, although in many cases closely related plants share similar growth preferences this may not always be true, where, for example, they have come to occupy different habitats, and secondly, similarity of growth preference does not imply close relationship. So removal of plant from a particular family would not mean that you had to alter its position in crop rotations - unless, of course, generations of gardeners had got it wrong! Yes, these are good points which hopefully would be considered by those undertaking the task of re-classification. Any formal reclassification that takes place in the light of DNA evidence will be on the basis of genealogy, so your hope would appear to be forlorn. And with the current state of the art DNA sequencing can only shed light on genealogy, so your hope is doubly so. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |
