Abstract
Main objectives can be summarized as follows: to learn the structure, development, ecology and evolution of vascular plants to understand the origin and diversification of land plants while emphasizing flowering plants. to identify and classify emphasizing flowering plants to understand basic evolution processes (speciation, reproductive biology, adaptation, convergence, biogeography), and phylogenetics (phenetics, cladistics, morphology and molecules)
