Plant Evolution and Phylogeny

Evolutionary history of land plants and key innovations.


field tier

Plant Evolution and Phylogeny addresses evolutionary history of land plants and key innovations. As a subfield of plant biology, it sits within the broader biology branch of the Charted science tree and connects upward to the methodological themes of its parent area.

A more detailed frontier sourcing pass for this topic is deferred to a follow-up OpenAlex wave; the current sources include Taiz, Plant Physiology and Development, each kept as a placeholder anchor for the next iteration. See the parent topic (biology/plant-biology) for the wider context this page will eventually slot into.
