Download or read book Green Plants written by Peter R. Bell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-09-28 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central theme of Green Plants, first published in 2000, is the astonishing diversity of forms found in the plant kingdom, from the simplicity of prokaryotic algae to the myriad complexities of flowering plants. The book is arranged according to generally accepted classification schemes, beginning with algae (prokaryotic and eukaryotic) and moving through mosses, liverworts, fern allies, ferns and gymnosperms to flowering plants. Copiously illustrated throughout, it provides a concise account of all algae and land plants, with information on topics from cellular structure to life cycles and reproduction. The authors maintain a refreshingly cautious approach in discussions of possible phylogenetic relationships and include newly emerging information on features of plants known only as fossils. This edition has been completely updated to reflect current views on the origin of the major groups of plants, providing a resource for students of botany, and for researchers needing a comprehensive reference to the plant kingdom.

Download or read book Wonders of the Plant Kingdom written by Wolfgang Stuppy and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compared to the obvious complexity of animals, plants at a glance seem relatively simple in form. But that simplicity is deceptive: the plants around us are the result of millennia of incredible evolutionary adaptations that have allowed them to survive, and thrive, under wildly changing conditions and in remarkably specific ecological niches. Much of this innovation, however, is invisible to the naked eye. With Wonders of the Plant Kingdom, the naked eye gets an unforgettable boost. A stunning collaboration between science and art, this gorgeous book presents hundreds of images of plants taken with a scanning electron microscope and hand-colored by artist Rob Kesseler to reveal the awe-inspiring adaptations all around us. The surface of a peach—with its hairs, or trichomes, and sunken stomata, or breathing pores—emerges from these pages in microscopic detail. The dust-like seeds of the smallest cactus species in the world, the Blossfeldia liliputana—which measures just twelve millimeters fully grown—explode here with form, color, and character, while the flower bud of a kaffir lime, cross-sectioned, reveals the complex of a flower bud with the all-important pistil in the center. Accompanying these extraordinary images are up-to-date explanations of the myriad ways that these plants have ensured their own survival—and, by proxy, our own. Gardeners and science buffs alike will marvel at this wholly new perspective on the world of plant diversity.
Download or read book Evolution and Diversity of Plants written by The Open The Open Courses Library and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution and Diversity of Plants Principles of Biology The kingdom Plantae constitutes a large and varied group of organisms, which have been on the planet for a very long time. There are more than 300,000 species of catalogued plants, including the fossil plants that de Jussieu references in the epigraph above. Of these, more than 260,000 are seed plants. Mosses, ferns, conifers, and flowering plants are all members of the plant kingdom. While there is some disagreement about the relationships between Chlorophytes, Charophytes, and Plantae, there are several unique characteristics which these groups share. Only green algae and plants use chlorophyll a and b plus carotene in a particular ratio. They share the trait of cellulose-rich cell walls, and there is strong molecular support for their close relationship. Chapter Outline: Lichens, Protists and Green Algae Early Plant Life Bryophytes Seedless Vascular Plants Evolution of Seed Plants Gymnosperms Angiosperms Asexual Reproduction The Open Courses Library introduces you to the best Open Source Courses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green Plants is a totally revised edition of the earlier Diversity of Green Plants by P. R. Bell and C. L. F. Woodcock. This new revision documents the latest information about the most exciting advances in the relevant fields of botanical science. The theme of the book is the remarkable diversity of form which has followed from the phenomenon of photosynthesis and the fixation of atmospheric carbon. The author's detailed treatment spans the full scope of the plant kingdom, extending from the simplest unicellular organisms to the complexity represented by the flowering plants. Information on the essential features of plants known only from the fossil record is also included. This complete and compact survey of all green plants will provide a tremendous resource for all students of botany.
