Basic Classifications

Vascular vs. Non-vascular
Seed vs. Seedless
Flowering vs. Flowerless
Big 2 Vascular Plant Divisions
     Flowering Plants (Anthophyta)
     Cone Bearing Plants (Coniferophyta)
Plant Life Cycles

Annuals - complete life cycle (seed to
 seed) in one year
Biennials - require all or part of 2 years
 to complete life cycle
Perennials - live longer than 2 years
     Herbaceous - soft stems that die back in
      winter
     Woody - trees, shrubs, etc.
Monocots vs Dicots

             Stems

Crowns - compressed stems with leaves
 and flowers on short internodes
Spurs - short side stems arising from
 main stem, often bear fruit on trees
Stolons - fleshy or semiwoody,
 elongated, horizontal stems, often at
 soil surface
Specialized Underground

Tuber - enlarged, short, fleshy
 underground stem tip
Rhizome - horizontal underground
 stem, may be compressed and fleshy or
 slender with elongated internodes
Bulb - short, compressed, underground
 stem with central bud at tip of stem,
 surrounded by fleshy scales (leaves)
Specialized Underground
              Stems

Corm - solid, swollen underground
 stem with dry, scale-like leaves
Tuberous stem - short, flat, enlarged
 underground stem with buds and
 shoots at top and fibrous roots at
 bottom
Leaves
Leaf Functions

Types of Leaves

Scale leaves (cataphylls) - enclose and protect
 rhizomes and buds
Seed leaves (cotyledons) - store food for seedlings
Spines & Tendrils - protect or help support
Storage leaves - found on bulbous plants &
 succulents, store food
Bracts - modified, often brightly-colored leaves
 around flowers

Flower Types

Complete
     all floral organs present (sepals,
      petals, stamens, pistil)
Incomplete
     flower lacks 1 or more of the 4 organs
Flower Types

Perfect - has both stamen (male
 organs) and pistil (female organ)
Imperfect - having only one type of
 organ
     Staminate - male organ present
     Pistillate - female organ present
Imperfect Flowers

Species with Imperfect
              Flowers

Monoecious
     both pistillate and staminate flowers occur
      on same plant
       • birch, pecan, squash
Dioecious
     pistillate are on one plant, staminate on a
      different plant
       • ginkgo, holly, pistachio, kiwi
Pollination

Exchange of pollen
Numerous mechanisms
     insects, birds, bats, wind, rain
Flowers are optimized for their
 pollination vector

Aggregate - develop from a single
 flower with multiple ovaries
Multiple - develop from a tight cluster
 of separate flowers
Seeds
Seed Anatomy

Embryo - miniature plant in an arrested
 state of development
Endosperm - food supply (can be
 comprised of proteins, carbohydrates,
 fats)
Seed coat - hard outer covering that
 protects from disease and insects; also
 repels water
Germination

Activation of embryo within seed
Preceded by water penetrating seed
 coat
Oxygen, favorable temperature, and (in
 some species) light required
