|
Bessey System |
-In general, homogenous structures (with many and similar parts) are lower, and heterogenous structures (with fewer and dissimilar parts) are higher -Evolution does not necessarily involve all organs of the plant equally in any particular period, and one organ may be advancing while another is retrograding |
|
|
Primitive in Bessey System |
-Woody Stems -Simple Leaves -Evergreen/Non-deciduous -Reticulated venation of leaves -Actinomorphy -Hypogyny -Apocarpy -Powdery Pollen |
