Plant species identification using digital morphometrics: A review
Plants are of fundamental importance to life on Earth. The shapes of leaves, petals and
whole plants are of great significance to plant science, as they can help to distinguish …

Phylogeny reconstruction: the role of morphology
RW Scotland, RG Olmstead, JR Bennett - Systematic biology, 2003 - JSTOR
In this article we explore the paradox of why morphological data are currently utilized less for
phylogeny reconstruction than are DNA sequence data, whereas most of what we know …
