  9. Wonders of the Plant Kingdom: A Microcosm Revealed (häftad)

    ISBN: 9780226215921 - UTGIVEN: 2015-02

    Compared to the obvious complexity of animals, plants at a glance seem relatively simple in form.

This organismal bias has led to an incomple[...]

    ISBN: 9780226523088 - UTGIVEN: 2017-10

    Most of us lump plants together in one big family, and when pressed can only explain their grouping by what they're not--not an animal, not a mineral, and so just a plant. In reality, there are hundreds of different plant families, each grouped logically by a unique family history and genealogy. Thi[...]
