CLASSIFICATION AND USES OF PLANTS  Learning Outcomes At the end of this course, the students are expected to: – Know the different botanical classification – Know the proper writing of scientific names – Know the different scientific names of plants  Course Outline Botanical Classification Principles How to write scientific names Uses of Plants  BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION PRINCIPLES Artificial System Natural System Phylogenetic System Phenetics System Cladistic System  Artificial System is a non-evolutionary system as it bases on the few characters and morphology of the species. This principle became undesirable as more plants have been discovered. Natural System is based on the natural relationship between organisms. Some features are considered such as morphology and anatomy.  Phylogenetic System classification of plants according to evolutionary history.  Phenetics System or numerical taxonomy which is not reflect the evolutionary relationship. It can be considered as an early step to eliminate the subjectivity by using measured and described characters.  Cladistics System is designed to provide a less subjective way of classification. It shows the evolutionary relationships between traits.  Plant Taxonomy or Plant Systematics is the science that finds, identifies, describes, classifies, and names plants. – Bacteriology – Mycology - fungi – Algology or Phycology - algae – Lichenology – Bryology or Muscology - mosses, liverworts, and hornworts – Filicology or Pteridology – ferns  Plant Taxonomy or Plant Systematics is the science that finds, identifies, describes, classifies, and names plants. – Dendrology or Xylology - trees and other woody plants – Agrostology or Graminology – grasses – Batology – brambles (blackberry, raspberry) – Pomology - study and cultivation of fruit – Ampelography – grapes – Orchidology  Scientific Names Scientific names or Binomial Nomenclature is a scientific process wherein entities such as plants, animals, living entities are named and they are derived from Latin. How do you write a scientific name? The first letter of the genus name must be written in upper case letters. The first letter of species descriptor is always written in lower case letters, never in upper case even if it is a proper noun. And the name is to be italicized or underline Example Bamboo Bamboosa aridinarifolia Capsicum Capsicum frutescens Carrot Daucas carota Maize Zea mays Mango Mangifera indica  REVIEW OF OLD AND NEW FAMILY NAMES The International Code does accept eight alternate scientific family names that do not end in "aceae". OLD FAMILY NAME NEW FAMILY NAME COMMON FAMILY Graminae Poaceae Grass family Umbelliferae Apiaceae Aromatic flowering plant Palmae Arecaceae Palm family Labiatae Lamiaceae Mint family Leguminosae Fabaceae Pea family Compositae Asteraceae Aster, daisy, composite, or sunflower family Cruciferae Brassicaceae Mustard family Guttiferae Clusiaceae Mangosteen family USES OF PLANTS  Uses of Plants by Humans 1.
