Non-Flowering Plant Families, UH Botany
Monoecious or dioecious trees or shrubs comprising about 18 genera and 140 species.
http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/cupress.htm

Extractions: Pinophyta (Gymnosperms): Pinophytina. The Cupressaceae are monoecious or dioecious trees or shrubs comprising about 18 genera and 140 species. The leaves are usually scalelike, and are opposite and decussate, or whorled. The male or microsporangiate strobili are small and inconspicuous, axillary or terminal, usually comprising only a few microsporophylls, each with 3-6 or more microsporangia. The pollen grains lack wings. The female or megasporangiate strobili are small, with 1-12 ovuliferous scales, each fused with its bract and bearing 2-12 ovules. The scales may be flat and imbricate, peltate, or connate. The female cone is woody or sometimes fleshy and berrylike. Each "thumbnail" image below is linked to a larger photograph. Chamaecyparis lawsoniana , Port Orford cedar, Avery Park, Corvallis, OR, 2002. Chamaecyparis nootkatensis , Alaska-cedar. Cupressus macrocarpa , Monterey cypress. A spreading crown like that seen here is found in many species of this family. This species has female cones with woody, peltate scales. Note the low number of scales per cone. Cupressus sargentii . Note the scale-like, opposite, decussate leaves.

Skip Navigation skip menu and banner Students decide to major in the biological sciences for many reasons. Some enjoy the outdoors and wonder about the plants and animals they've seen. Others are curious about the causes and cures of diseases, or they want to become involved in land management and environmental protection. Whatever the reason, you'll find that the University of Wyoming offers a wide variety of opportunities. Within a short distance of the University of Wyoming's campus are short grass prairies, sagebrush-dominated foothills, coniferous forests, mountain lakes, and alpine meadows. These diverse environments, combined with modern research laboratories, provide abundant opportunities for research and teaching in the plant sciences. Many have found the study of plants and fungi to be an excellent starting point for their studies in science. The program provides a broad range of knowledge, leading to a variety of employment opportunities . Since 1887 we've helped students develop their interests in subjects as diverse as botany, mycology, zoology, agriculture, molecular biology, wildlife management, and general biology. Today, the Botany Department offers a wide variety of

http://ag.arizona.edu/pubs/garden/mg/botany/plantparts.html

Extractions: Ch. 1, pp. 3 - 8 The parts of a plant can be divided into two groups, sexual reproductive parts and vegetative parts. Sexual reproductive parts are those involved in the production of seed. They include flower buds, flowers, fruit, and seeds. The vegetative parts include leaves, roots, leaf buds, and stems. Although the vegetative parts are not directly involved in sexual reproduction, they are often used in asexual or vegetative forms of reproduction, such as cuttings. leaves buds roots flowers ... seeds Cross-Section of a Stem Stems may be long, with great distances between leaves and buds (branches of trees, runners on strawberries), or compressed, with short distances between buds or leaves (fruit spurs, crowns of strawberry plants, dandelions). Stems can be above the ground like most stems with which we are familiar, or below the ground (potatoes, tulip bulbs). All stems must have buds or leaves present to be classified as stem tissue. An area of the stem where leaves are located is called a node. Nodes are areas of great cellular activity and growth, where auxiliary buds develop into leaves or flowers. The area between nodes is called the internode.

Extractions: About Botany Research Courses Facilities ... Hands-on Science Botany covers all aspects of the life of plants. It includes their structure and development, physiology and biochemistry, health and disease, relationships with other organisms and the environment (ecology), as well as the traditional aspects of plant identification and classification. The main emphasis at Otago is on the general biology, ecology and physiology of higher plants, marine algae, fungi and viruses, although other groups (conifers, ferns and mosses) are also included in the courses.

Expandable thumbnail images of three Hawaiian representatives of this family of mostly epiphytic or sometimes terrestrial ferns comprising about 50 genera and 550 mostly tropical species.
http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/polypodi.htm

Extractions: The Polypodiaceae are mostly epiphytic or sometimes terrestrial ferns comprising about 50 genera and 550 mostly tropical species. The sporophyte consists of creeping rhizomes that give rise to simple, or less commonly, pinnate leaves. The rhizomes are covered with scales that are often peltate. The leaf axis and rhizome have several vascular bundles arranged in a circular pattern. The small, lens-shaped sporangia are usually long-stalked, and are borne in naked circular or continuous sori. Each "thumbnail" image below is linked to a larger photograph. Lepisorus thunbergianus , pakahakaha, 'ekaha 'akolea, pua'a kuhinia, Kipahulu, Maui, indigenous. Phlebodium aureum , golden polypody, rabbit's foot fern. Note the conspicuously reddish-brown-scaly rhizomes of the polypody, partly hidden by the thick mat of the moss, Pyrrhobryum spiniforme Phymatosorus grossus , laua'e. This photo shows the lower frond surface: the naked sori are in depressions that give the upper leaf surface an embossed appearance. Polypodium pellucidum , ae, Hawaiian endemic. The view of the lower frond surface illustrates the naked, circular sori that are characteristic of this family.

http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/pin.htm

Extractions: Pinophyta (Gymnosperms: Pinophytina. The Pinaceae are resinous trees or rarely shrubs comprising about 9 genera and 225 species found mostly in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The leaves are spirally disposed and are linear and needlelike. The male or microsporangiate strobili are small, terminal, or more often clustered along the stem axis, and consist of many papery microsporophylls, each with two microsporangia on the lower surface. The pollen grains typically have two, bladderlike wings. The female cones or megasporangiate strobili are woody and often large, consisting of many ovuliferous scales, each with a pair of adaxial ovules and a more or less distinct subtending bract. Each "thumbnail" image below is linked to a larger photograph. Abies pinsapo , Spanish fir. 1,2 - female cones, 3 - male cones, 4 - vegetative shoots. Corvallis OR, Jul 2004. Abies sp., fir. Cedrus atlantica , Atlantic cedar. This species has short lateral shoots with closely spiralled leaves. Both male and female cones are terminal on these short spurs. The female cone is on the left and the male cone is the brown and orange one on the right. Cedrus deodara , Note that 2 winged seeds separate from each ovuliferous scale. This genus is one of the exceptional ones for the family in that the cones disintegrate while remaining on the tree. Nearly all of the scales have already abscised from the axis of the cone.
