• BIOL 4030: Plant Systematics

  3.00 Credits

  Austin Peay State University

  
  Prerequisite: Biol 1110/1111 and Biol 3070/3071; Corequisite: Biol 4031; Dual Listed: Biol 5030;Description: This course presents an integrative approach to plant systematics. Topics include principles of plant systematics (i.e., phylogeny, botanical taxonomy and classification, nomenclature, history) and a strong focus on the morphological characteristics of the major plant families of eastern North America. During this class, students will become familiar with contemporary literature and develop an understanding of how plant systematics is informed by herbarium-related research, field work, and lab-based research.
