  2. Classification – Domain (replaces Kingdom) Bacteria Eukarya Archaea

  3. Classification – Kingdom (old) Plantae Animalia Monera Fungi Protista

  4. Botanical Classification Kingdom: Plantae Division: Seed Plants (Spermatophyta) Class: Cone Bearing (Gymnosperm) Flowering (Angiosperm) Subclass: Monocotyledon Dicotyledon Order: Family:

  5. Plant Taxonomy

  6. Monocots Corn - 1 seed leaf Monocot – a plant whose embryo has one cotyledon

  7. Monocots Corn - 1 seed leaf Coleoptile – the sheath enclosing the apical meristem and leaf primordia of the grass embryo

  8. Monocots Corn - 1 seed leaf Plumule – the first bud of an embryo; the portion of the young shoot above the cotyledons

  9. Monocots Onion - 1 seed leaf

  10. Dicots Castor Bean 2 seed leaves

  11. Dicots Castor Bean 2 seed leaves Hypocotyl – the portion of an embryo or seedling situated between the cotyledons and the radicle

  12. Dicots Castor Bean 2 seed leaves Epicotyl – the upper portion of the axis of the embryo or seedling above the cotyledons and below the next leaf or leaves

  13. Dicots Peas - 2 seed leaves

  14. Dicots Monocots

  15. Dicots Monocots Flower parts In 4’s or 5’s Flower parts In 3’s

  16. Dicots Monocots Tap root Fibrous root

  17. Dicots Monocots

  18. Vegetable Classification Monocot vegetables: Araceae – arum family vegetables: taro, dasheen related: calamus, jack-in-the-pulpit

  19. Vegetable Classification Monocot vegetables: Dioscoreaceae – yam family vegetable: yam related: wild yams

  20. Vegetable Classification Monocot vegetables: Gramineae – grass family vegetable: sweet corn related: grasses, sedges

  21. Vegetable Classification Monocot vegetables: Lilieaceae-lily family vegetables: onion, leek, garlic, shallot, chive, asparagus related: lily, camas, solomon’s seal

  22. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Polygonaceae – buckwheat family vegetables: rhubarb, sorrel related: knotweed, smart weed, dock

  23. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Chenopodiaceae – goosefoot family vegetables: beet, swiss chard related: lambsquarter, russian thistle

  24. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Cruciferae – mustard family vegetables: cabbage, broccoli, kohlrabi, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, rutabaga, turnip, radish, others related: wild mustards

  25. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Euphorbiaceae – spurge family vegetable: cassava related: poinsettia, castor bean, spurge

  26. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Leguminosae – pea family vegetables: pea, bean, cowpea, soybean, peanut, others related: locoweed, acacia, lupine, clover

  27. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Malvaceae – mallow family vegetable: okra related: hibiscus, hollyhock

  29. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Umbelliferae – parsley family vegetables: carrot, parsnip, parsley, celery, others related: hemlock, cow parsnip

  30. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Convolvulaceae – morning glory family vegetable: sweet potato related: flowering morning glory, bindweed, dodder

  31. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Solanaceae – nightshade family vegetables: potato, tomato, pepper, eggplant, others related: nightshade, jimson-weed, physalis

  32. Vegetable Classification Dicot vegetables: Compositae – composite family vegetables: lettuce, chicory, endive, salsify, artichoke, others related: dandelion, thistle, daisy, ragweed, sunflower

  33. Botanical Classification Additional Taxonomy (most useful) - Family Genus Species Cultivar

  34. Botanical Classification Family: an assemblage of genera that closely or uniformly resemble one another in general appearance and technical characters

  35. Botanical Classification Genus: identifies a more or less closely related and definable group of plants that may include one or more species.

  36. Botanical Classification Genus: identifies a more or less closely related and definable group of plants that may include one or more species. The species within a genus are usually structurally or phylogenetically related.

  37. Botanical Classification Species: a group of similar organisms capable of interbreeding and are distinctly different in morphological or other characteristics from other species in the same genus.

  38. Botanical Classification Variety: a subdivision of a species consisting of a population with morphological characteristics distinct from other species forms. (considered a naturally occurring taxonomic division)

  39. Botanical Classification Cultivar: denotes certain cultivated plants that are alike in most important aspects of growth but are clearly distinguishable from others by one or more definite characteristics = a cultivated variety

  40. Botanical Classification Clone: identifies material derived from a single individual and maintained by vegetative propagation. (genetically identical) Line: a uniform sexually reproduced population, usually self-pollinated, that is seed propagated and maintained to the desired standard of uniformity by selection.

  41. Botanical Classification Strain: a term used to identify plants of a given cultivar that possess similar characteristics but differ in some minor feature or quality

  42. Botanical Classification Additional Taxonomy Family Genus Species Cultivar Complete Latin Binomial includes the name of the individual who first described the species.

  43. Botanical Classification Family: Brassicaceae (Cruciferae) Genus: Brassica Species: oleracea Group (var) Capitata Complete Latin Binomial - cabbage Brassica oleracea L. Cultivar: ‘Golden Acre’ Strain: ‘Golden Acre YR’

  44. Growth and Development Growth stages: Germination Establishment Vegetative growth Reproductive growth Ripening and senescence

  45. Growth and Development Growth stages: Germination - the beginning or resumption of growth by a spore, seed, bud, or other structure

  46. Growth Stages Germination Process: Water inbibition Seed coat softening Expansion of hypocotyl and root Emergence

  47. Growth Stages Germination Characteristics: Critical for plant productivity Disease susceptibility Requires near-ideal conditions
