Plant Systematics Module 3

This third of five Plant Systematics modules will examine tracheophyte families referred to as the tricolpates (i.e., the majority of dicot plants). Discussion will include primitive tricolpates (e.g., Ranunculaceae, Papaveraceae, Amaranthaceae) and eurosids (e.g., Rosaceae, Betulaceae, Brassicaceae). The lecture will use text and images that describe both critical characters for family level identification and representative genera in New England.
