This course provides an in-depth study of plant classification and identification. Students will learn the principles of taxonomy, including the use of keys, manuals, and molecular techniques to identify plant species. The course covers the evolutionary relationships among plants, the history of plant classification systems, and current trends in plant systematics. Practical sessions will involve collecting, identifying, and classifying plants in the field and herbarium work. This course is essential for botanists, ecologists, and conservationists.
