This facilitated the naming of species that, with the massive influx of new specimens from newly explored regions of Africa, Asia, and the Americas, was in need of a more efficient and usable system. Carex aurea , photo by Adolf Ceska How Do We Classify Plants? Plants, and indeed all organisms, are classified in a hierarchical system that attempts to illustrate the evolutionary relationships between the various groupings within the hierarchy. This concept of relatedness forms the backbone of modern classification schemes. Scientists who attempt to classify organisms and place them within an evolutionary framework are called Taxonomists, the most famous of which would be Linnaeus himself. At the broadest level, all organisms on the planet are classified into 5

We use the plant taxonomy developed by Linnaeus (1707-1778). Improving on the systems of his predecessors, Linnaeus simplified plant taxonomy through the "binomial" system. Linnaeus' system uses one Latin name to indicate the genus, and another to indicate the specific epithet. Together, the genus and epithet comprise the "species." E.g., our plant taxonomy classifies bittersweet nightshade as Solanum dulcamara , where the first Latin name is for the genus (nightshade), and the second is for the specific epithet (bittersweet).

The study of pollen grains (the male reproductive cells of seed plants) is a vital part of our research activities. Microscopic differences, magnified up to 50,000 times, reveal a remarkable diversity of shape, size and structure. These differences are important diagnostic features which are used in plant identification and classification. Pollen characters provide important information for plant taxonomy, evolution, pollination and plant breeding. The correct identification of pollen is important in the study of vegetation and climatic history, in forensic science, in the analysis of origins of honey and beeswax and in the alleviation of hayfever. Pollen research at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew is focused on the contribution of pollen characters to our understanding of the systematic and evolutionary relationships of various groups of flowering plants. Palynology staff are also frequently called upon for advice on a wide range of pollen-related topics including aerobiology, pollen storage and viability, bee poisoning, and bat forage.

    Extractions: Email this page Print-friendly Taxonomy is the classification of life forms into distinct groups. Linnaeus (Carl von Linné), a Swedish botanist of the 18th century developed the taxonomy of plants and initiated the binomial system of nomenclature. Before this, plants and animals were grouped into broad generalisations according to such things as their habitat or uses, but this became unwieldy and a universal system was needed. Class - Dicotyledon. Division is divided into two classes, 'monocotyledon' or 'dicotyledon'. Cotyledon means 'seed leaf'. Monocotyledons are plants which have veins parallel to the leaf margins and a single leaf after germination (e.g. grasses). Dicotyledons bear two leaves after germination (e.g. peas, tomatoes, roses and a host of others).
