Earliest Systems for Plants
• Mostly defined functionally by foragers, farmers, and physicians
• Still used in terms like weed, fruit (non-technical usage), herb, and vegetable
Illustration of an early herbal, De Materia Medica (~50-70 C.E.) by Dioscoides

Theophrastos of Lesbos• Successor to Aristotle and
developed his philosophy in many areas.
• Developed system of plants in parallel with Aristotle’s system on animals
• Structure of plants– Herbs– Shrubs– Trees
c. 371-287 B.C.E., Athens

Karl von LinnéCarolus Linnaeus (1707-1778)
• Linne is reference to a large lime tree near his ancestral home
• Latinized his name to Carolus Linnaeus
• Created a system on plants using the sex organs as a means of classification
• Species Plantarum (1753) is the starting point for all plant taxonomy
Key to the sexual system from the 10th edition (1758) of Systema Naturae

Green Plants
MAJOR CLADES OF THE GREEN PLANTS. This system reflects all of these changes in the taxonomy of the Viridiplantae with two subkingdoms: Chlorobionta and Streptobionta. See the Tree of Life Project and Palmer et al. (2004) for the consensus view of the molecular/ ultrastructural relationships between the higher taxa of the green plants.CH = Chlorobiont CladeST = Streptobiont CladeEM = EmbryophytesVP = Vascular PlantsSP = Seed Plants

Major Events in Plant Evolution
• Appearance of land plants initially limited to mosses and relatives during Ordovician Period (~470-440 mya) based on fossil spores.
• Plants restricted to lowlands and wet areas of temperate to tropical latitudes.
Mosses growing in a Scotland bog, their success related to symbioses with fungi. Likely, this was true at the time of the earliest emergence. (David Beerling, University of Sheffield)

Life on Land
Advantages• Unfiltered light• Atmosphere larger
reservoir of CO2 • Initially, fewer predators?
Disadvantages• Exposure to UV light• Need for water storage and
uptake• Need for photosynthate
used for support

Major Events in Plant Evolution• Vascular tissue• Shift to dominance of
spore-producing portion of life cycle
Restoration of Cooksonia from Silurian
Vascular tissue in stem of Rhynia, lower Devonian

These are from the lower Cretaceous, but flowering plant pollen has been found in strata 100 my earlier.
