Description and Table of Contents

Description

The classification of plants at infraspecific level is often difficult - variation can be continuous, making a traditional hierarchical classification difficult to maintain. In particular, cultivated plants may require special artificial systems of classification, to conform to the practical needs of breeders. This volume explores the limitations of the present systems, and considers the development of more workable systems in the future.
