    Botany 461 - Systematics of Vascular Plants - Fall 200 Formerly Bot 361 - Flowering Plant Families I. Overview: This course is intended to provide the means for students to recognize some of the most conspicuous and/or important plant families in their surrounding environment. Although all vascular plant groups are covered, the emphasis is clearly on the flowering plants. The first few lectures provide the background necessary to gain a reasonable perspective of the discipline of taxonomy leading up to and including the phylogenetic approach adopted by the current text. All subsequent lectures are very closely integrated with their corresponding labs. These lectures are intended to introduce the laboratory material by summarizing and illustrating features characteristic of the families to be stressed in the lab. In the laboratory, emphasis is placed on the study of living material to provide a basis for understanding plant variation. Once a working vocabulary is developed, students are given the opportunity to learn features that distinguish higher categories of plants. The primary goal is recognition of a limited number of very important plant families.

Access Lecture Slides Course Content: The course deals with the classification and identification of vascular plants, i.e., flowering plants, gymnosperms, ferns and fern relatives. Although emphasis is on the flora of the Southeast and North America, families that occur elsewhere and are important in the world flora will also be covered. There will be a slight emphasis on plants of economic importance. The lectures will also cover evidence and methodologies used in making taxonomic decisions, the relationships between phylogeny and classification, disagreements among contemporary schools of taxonomy, aspects of flowering plant distribution, and the basic principles of botanical nomenclature. The laboratories emphasize identification of elements of the local flora, terminology, interpretation of flower structure, the use of keys and descriptions, and collection and preservation methods.

We hope that you will come away from this course with a better understanding of some of the big environmental issues that you probably hear about in the news every day–global warming, rising CO2, loss of biodiversity, invasions by non-native species, pollution of lakes, rivers, and coastal waters–and how these environmental problems affect ecological systems. Our goal for the course is not necessarily to turn all of you into ecosystem ecologists (although that would be great!). Rather, we hope to provide you with a basic understanding of ecosystem ecology that will help you evaluate how human activities are influencing ecological systems. The course is roughly divided into halves. The

    The How
    (how to sign up) Whether you are a home gardener, or industry professional, if you’re interested in outdoor flowers, here’s what this course can offer you:
    • Knowledge of some of the more common annual and perennial flowers of temperate climates, as well as other herbaceous garden plant groups such as ornamental grasses, roses, aquatics, ferns, bulbs, and wildflowers. In all 200 are covered extensively, and dozens more in lesser details. Lectures covering botany, design, culture, pests and problems—over 90 lectures, grouped into 32 main topics and 5 modules. Quizzes at the end of each module are designed to reinforce the lecture notes, and even add additional information, in addition to helping you test your knowledge. Plant ID quizzes from photos will help reinforce your recognition of key plants, and their proper name spellings. Exercises, similar to "lab" projects, will give you experience in several related aspects of garden plants, such as the most common, how to find information, garden history, plant combinations, current issues, and other. Many of these results will be shared through the web so all can benefit from the collective work of the class, in your region and beyond. When you sign up you will be placed on a listserver so I can share questions and answers with the whole class periodically, key results of projects, course updates and other. You wont be able to post directly to this list, in order to keep the volume of emails down to those taking the class. If you want more interaction, you will be directed to specific other lists and chat rooms.

    Anytime Article NEW ON-LINE HERBACEOUS GARDEN PLANTS COURSE
    By Dr. Leonard Perry, Extension Professor Whether you are a home gardener or industry professional, if you are interested in outdoor flowers and want to learn more about them this winter and the coming year, here is a great, new opportunity for you. The course I teach at the University of Vermont (UVM) on garden plants is now available to take totally online through the Internet. The more than 250 pages of printed notes are available for purchase in case you want to have them for future reference, and not just on a computer screen. Or you can get the notes on a CD-ROM, or the lectures on audio CDs to listen to while you follow the lecture outlines. You can buy only the notes, too, without taking the course, but there is a considerable discount if you also sign up for the on-line course. Although the notes contain lots of useful information, they are best used in conjunction with the course for enhanced learning. Many aspects of the course are designed to reinforce key points and plants and give you additional information and exposure to this whole field of study, which is not found in just the notes. The cost for the course is $99, with a $20 discount for horticulture industry professionals and Vermont Master Gardeners. Printed lecture notes, CD-ROMs, and CDs are extra. The course also may be taken for credit. If you aren't a full-time UVM student, you can sign up through the UVM Continuing Education Division.

    2. Transition - 201 to 301. A quick look at the path to be followed: Lecture schedule and lab schedule 3. Introductory notions: Botany 301 is an extension from introductions to plant science provided by introductory biology and botany classes. As is the case with most advanced courses, the focus is narrowed to provide a more detailed set of information. In this case, we are only concerned with single element of the plant kingdom , the flowering plants or angiosperms, and a single scientific view of this group, that of plant taxonomy or systematics. Angiosperms dominate the world's biota. As primary 'translators' of radiant energy to a form usable by animals, including Homo sapiens , the flowering plants are - from an 'animal' point of view - the most important element of the biosphere. Thus, the educational foundation for those working at a professional level in the life sciences must include a technical familiarity with the angiosperms. The flowering plants are a large, complex group of organisms. Familiarity with any complex array is signaled by an ability to identify, recognize, and generally discern its elements via knowledge of the foundation 'structure' of the group. Someone with a passing knowledge of automobiles can, for instance, distinguish between a 'sports car' and a 'utility vehicle'. The ability to distinguish more detail, such as country of production, engine type, specific make/model/year, reflects advanced familiarity, knowledge, and - as a result - competence.

    Biology 210 is an introductory course in vascular plants. Plants from clubmoss to flowering plants are examined. Various aspects of plant biology are presented in lecture. The laboratory component gives students the opportunity to examine plants. The laboratories and lectures are supplemented with our website. We offer students a chance to look at annotated pictures of samples seen in lab as well as self-tests and lecture notes. Interesting Websites and a variety of topics in plant biology are among other components of the website,
    Following are some samples of sections available to the students in this course:

    UBC Arboretum
    The Monkey Puzzle Tree First planted in 1916, the UBC Arboretum contains mature specimens of various native and non-native tree species. Historical and contemporary cultures from around the world have utilsed many of the trees as important food items, sources of medicine, materials for construction or the making of “technology items”, and as plants of cultural and spiritual significance.

In a typical week, the first 2 hrs of lectures will be given by Prof. Tibshirani, from the lecture notes. The third hour (the ``application hour'') will be given by Profs Carleton, Hansell, or one of their colleagues from Botany or Zoology. They will give an application of one the statistical methods discussed in the lectures. Some questions from the application hour material will appear on the term test and final exam. However, you are not responsible for knowing all of the scientific details that is presented in the application hour, but will be questioned on the concepts.
