NANDITA BHAKAT, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR, DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY, NARAJOLE RAJ COLLEGE INTRODUCTION Classification denotes the arrangement of a single plant or group of plants an distinct category following a system of nomenclature, and in accordance with a particular and well established plan. Some of the earlier systems of classification of angiosperms were artificial systems, since they used only certain superficial characteristics as the basis. With more and more detailed study on the morphological, physiological and reproductive aspects of angiosperms, the artificial systems of classifications were replaced by the natural systems of classification.

NANDITA BHAKAT, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR, DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY, NARAJOLE RAJ COLLEGE George Bentham and Joseph Dalton Hooker - Two English taxonomists who were closely associated with the Royal Botanical Garden at Kew, England have given a detailed classification of plant kingdom, particularly the angiosperms. They gave an outstanding system of classification of phanerogams in their Genera Plantarum which was published in three volumes between the years 1862 to 1883. It is a natural system of classification. They described 97,205 species of flowering plants grouped into 202 orders (now recognised as families). The system has the advantage of being the first great natural system of classification, which is very easy to follow. BOTANY: SEM-IV, PAPER-C10T: PLANT SYSTEMATICS, UNIT-4: SYSTEMS OF CLASSIFICATION.

  • Appendix 1 Vernacular Names
    Appendix 1 Vernacular Names The vernacular names listed below have been collected from the literature. Few have phonetic spellings. Spelling is not helped by the difficulties of transcribing unwritten languages into European syllables and Roman script. Some languages have several names for the same species. Further complications arise from the various dialects and corruptions within a language, and use of names borrowed from other languages. Where the people are bilingual the person recording the name may fail to check which language it comes from. For example, in northern Sahel where Arabic is the lingua franca, the recorded names, supposedly Arabic, include a number from local languages. Sometimes the same name may be used for several species. For example, kiri is the Susu name for both Adansonia digitata and Drypetes afzelii. There is nothing unusual about such complications. For example, Grigson (1955) cites 52 English synonyms for the common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) in the British Isles, and also mentions several examples of the same vernacular name applying to different species. Even Theophrastus in c. 300 BC complained that there were three plants called strykhnos, which were edible, soporific or hallucinogenic (Hort 1916). Languages and history are linked and it is hoped that understanding how lan- guages spread will lead to the discovery of the historical origins of some of the vernacular names for the baobab. The classification followed here is that of Gordon (2005) updated and edited by Blench (2005, personal communication). Alternative family names are shown in square brackets, dialects in parenthesis. Superscript Arabic numbers refer to references to the vernacular names; Roman numbers refer to further information in Section 4.

This was the greatest taxonomic work ever produced in the united kingdom and ever since been an inspiration to generations of kew botanists . Although Bentham and Hooker’s system of classification was based on that of A.P. de Candolle but greater stress was given on contrast between free and fused petals . Their symptom was widely accepted in Britain and commonwealth countries but in Europe and North America it did not hold the much ground . Bentham and Hooker divided the seed plants into Dicotyledons, Gymnosperms and Monocotyledons. They placed Ranales in beginning and grasses at the end . The following is the summary of Bentham & Hooker’s system. DICOTYLEDONS : A . Polypetalae ( petals are free ) Series l Thalamiflorae Order 1. Ranales eg. Ranunculaceae, Magnollaceae e.t.c Order 2.

  • Bentham and Hooker's Classification (1862 – ’83)
    Bentham and Hooker's classification (1862 – ’83) George Bentham and Joseph Dalton Hooker - Two English taxonomists who were closely associated with the Royal Botanical Garden at Kew, England have given a detailed classification of plant kingdom, particularly the angiosperms. They gave an outstanding system of classification of phanerogams in their Genera Plantarum which was published in three volumes between the years 1862 to 1883. It is a natural system of classification. However, it does not show the evolutionary relationship between different groups of plants, in the strict sense. Nevertheless, it is the most popular system of classification particularly for angiosperms. The popularity comes from the face that very clear key characters have been listed for each of the families. These key characters enable the students of taxonomy to easily identify and assign any angiosperm plant to its family. Bentham and Hooker have grouped advanced, seed bearing plants into a major division called Phanerogamia. This division has been divided into three classes namely: 1. Dicotyledonae 2. Gymnospermae and 3. Monocotyledoneae 84 45 36 3 34 PhanerogamsSummaryor spermatophyta of Benthamare anddivided Hooker'sinto three classificationclasses - Dicotyledonae (1862 – 83), Gymnospermae and Monocotyledonae Class - Dicotyledonae– two cotyledons, open vascular bundles, reticulate venation I.

Series – Disciflorae - The calyx consists of either distinct or united sepals, which may be free or adnate to the ovary; a prominent ring of cushion shaped disc is usually present below the ovary, sometimes broken up into glands; the stamens are usually definite in number, inserted upon, or at the outer or inner base of the disc; the ovary is superior.

  • Bentham and Hooker's System of Plant Classification
    Bentham and hooker’s system of plant classification BY DR RAJIB KAGYUNG The most accepted natural system of classification of seed plants is that of Bentham and Hooker. It is a natural system of classification and is based on important characters of the plants. Even today this system is being followed in India, United Kingdom and several other Commonwealth countries. It is also used in a number of herbaria and botanical gardens all over the world. It is a well-known and widely accepted classification of seeded plants. It was proposed by two British botanists George Bentham (1800-1884) and Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817-1911). They were associated with Royal Botanical Garden at Kew and adopted a very comprehensive system of classification which is purely natural and most convenient and extremely suitable system for practical utility in identification of plants providing them, their respective taxon. This was the greatest taxonomic work ever produced in the United Kingdom and has ever since been an inspiration to generations of Kew botanists. Their system of classification was published in ‘Genera Plantarum’ in three volumes and they had described 97,205 species of seeded plants in 202 orders (now referred to as families). This three-volume monumental work which required quarter of a century, comprised description of all genera of seed plants known to science at that time and they were classified according to the system proposed by them. This system was published well before there were internationally accepted rules for botanical nomenclature. It indicates a family by “order”; an order is indicated by “cohorts” (in the first two volumes) or “series” (in the third volume); in the first two volumes “series” refers to a rank above that of order.

    Exercise 3 Determination of pH, and analysis of two soil samples for carbonates, chlorides, nitrates, sulphates, organic matter and base deficiency by rapid field test ObjectivesObjectivesObjectives After performing this exercise you should be able to: measure the soil pH, analyse soil to demonstrate presence/absence of carbonates, chlorides, nitrates, sulphates, organic matter and base deficiency using simple tests, and record the chemical characteristics of soil. 3.2 SOIL pH Soil pH is the most important property of the soil. It is related to plant nutrition. Soil pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion (H+) activity in the soil solution. It is defined as the -log 10 of the hydrogen ion concentration. Soil pH gives the concentration of hydrogen ions that can be easily exchanged. The pH exerts a strong effect on solubility and availability of nutrient elements. It influences nutrient uptake by plants. Soil pH between pH 6.0 and 6.5 indicates that most plant nutrients are in their most available state. Soil pH affects nutrient availability as the H+ ions take up space on the negative charges along the soil surface displacing nutrients. A pH less than 4 in soil indicates the presence of free acids obtained from the oxidation of sulfides. At pH less than 5.5, high concentrations of H+, aluminum and manganese in soil solution can reach toxic levels. A pH more than 5.5 suggests occurrence of ions such as aluminium and phosphorus. A pH of 7.8 to 8.2 indicates presence of calcium carbonate. Elements like nitrogen, potassium, calcium, magnesium and sulfur are more available within soil at pH 6.5 to 8 while boron, copper, iron, manganese, nickel and zinc are more readily available within soil pH 5 to 7.
