A taxonomic system is a coherent whole of taxonomic judgments on circumscription and placement of the considered taxa. It is only a "system" if it is applied to a ...
Mass Action Model – Holsinger's “mass action” model assumes that the proportion of selfed and out-crossed seeds produced is a function of rates of pollen transfer among plants and plant density. This model predicts that mixed mating can be a stable strategy when plants receive mixtures of self and out-cross pollen.
The APG IV system of flowering plant classification is the fourth version of a modern, mostly molecular-based, system of plant taxonomy for flowering plants ...

The System for Differential Corrections and Monitoring (SDCM), is the satellite-based navigation augmentation system operated by Russia's Roscosmos space agency to augment the precision of the GLONASS satellite navigation system. [1] It uses the Luch Multifunctional Space Relay System to transmit correction data. [2]
In botany, a plant shoot consists of any plant stem together with its appendages like leaves, lateral buds, flowering stems, and flower buds. [1] [2] The new growth from seed germination that grows upward is a shoot where leaves will develop.
The APG system (Angiosperm Phylogeny Group system) of plant classification is the first version of a modern, mostly molecular-based, system of plant taxonomy. Published in 1998 by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group , it was replaced by the improved APG II in 2003, APG III system in 2009 and APG IV system in 2016.
A resurrection plant is any poikilohydric plant that can survive extreme dehydration, even over months or years. The resurrection plant Selaginella lepidophylla reviving within 3 hours after the addition of water. Examples include: Anastatica hierochuntica, also known as the Rose of Jericho, a plant species native to deserts of North Africa
