Taxonomy Taxonomy is the orderly classification of
plants and animals according to their presumed natural relationship
![Page 6: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Plant taxonomy involves four interrelated fields: Botany
Systematic pursuit of specific facts and knowledge about plants
Taxonomic SystemBased on facts that are found, using
knowledge to set up classifications and arrangements of plant groups and concepts of evolutionary sequence of characteristics
![Page 7: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Plant taxonomy involves four interrelated fields: Nomenclature
Uniform method of naming plants based on international rules that botanists have agreed on in order to promote a reasonably stable system○ Only one name for each plant
DocumentationIncludes illustration, photo, and preservation
of actual plant specimens○ In museums and herbariums
![Page 8: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Plants are the basis of the food chain for all living things;
therefore animals depend on plants for survival
![Page 9: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
How are wildlife plants used as food by wildlife? Plants are eaten by various animals and
insects
Plants are at the bottom of the food chain and provide the greatest amount of food material
![Page 10: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How are wildlife plants used as food by wildlife? Parts generally eaten by species are
stems, leaves, fruit, seed, buds, flowers, and roots
![Page 11: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Like humans, animals have preferences in the following order:Preferred food: high nutritiousStaple food: maintain body weightEmergency food: will not maintain vitalityStuffer food: provide bulky, have almost no
nutrient value Quality and quantity of available food
determines the diet selection of wildlife
How are wildlife plants used as food by wildlife?
![Page 13: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How are wildlife plants used for cover by wildlife? Cover is the protective part of an
animal’s environment Plants provide cover and allow certain
animals to blend into the scenery so that they are camouflaged
Assist in travel, breeding, nesting, sleeping, feeding, and hiding
Cover requirement are often quite different for varying species
![Page 14: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What other benefits do plants have? Help stabilize or prevent soil erosion
Provide organic matter to soil layer
Clean the environment by removing harmful pollutants from the air and water
Plants have values as medicines, food, aesthetics, and drinks – economical value
![Page 15: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What are various types of plant species?
Native SpeciesPart of the natural environment
Introduced SpeciesNon-native plant speciesMay be beneficial or harmful
![Page 16: Habitat Requirements](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5681637c550346895dd45a91/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What are various types of plant species?
Invader SpeciesOpportunistic plantsOften appear when animals exceed carrying
capacity
Cultivated SpeciesMonoculture cropsOften used for food plotsExamples: corn, millet, oat, wheat

How are plants classified? Modern Classification of Plants
Criteria○ Plants are grouped according to many
different criteria, either formally or informally○ Examples provided on the next slides related
to ornamental plants, but can be applied to agriculture and botanical specimens.
○ The last three categories provide the basis for the formal classification of plants by botanists

ClimaticTemperate zone plants such as stone fruits
vs. tropical zone plants such as the Ficus houseplant
SeasonWinter annual weeds vs. summer annual
weeds

TemperatureWarm season crops such as zinnias and
petunias vs. cool season crops such as primroses and snapdragons
Life CycleAnnuals such as sweet alyssums and
pansies vs. perennial such as gazanias or roses

Growth HabitPlants that grow tall such as trees and
shrubs vs. plants that remain low to the ground such as ground covers and turf grasses
UsePlants used for street trees such as
flowering plum and London plane vs. plant used for hedges such as privets and boxwoods

MorphologyPlants with a particular form, structure, or
development such as four-petal poppies vs. five-petal roses
PhysiologyPlants with particular functions and activities
such as evergreen fir trees vs. deciduous larch trees

EvolutionPlants with advanced characteristics such
as flowering plants vs. those with more primitive systems such as ferns, which reproduce by spores
