About this ebook

This investigatory project is taken up as an investigatory study involving studies to analyse significance of Floral Formula to meet taxonomical purposes. This mechanism was used for the first time by Cassel, used along with 4-integer series to represent the different whorls of floral parts to describe characteristics of floral families (Grisebach)[i]. An extension of the existing model to broaden the descriptive capability of the formula was developed and used by Prenner; an argument is also advanced that formulae should be included in formal taxonomic descriptions.

It is expected that this exploratory will provide us an ample scope of understanding mechanism involved in developing and using floral formula for facilitating classification of flowering plants. We will also conventional as well as modern ways of presentation of floral formula. Even some of the floral formulae can be decoded to work out a better understanding of the mechanism.
