Variation and evolution in plants and microorganisms : toward a new synthesis 50 years after Stebbins /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

"The present book is intended as a progress report on [the] synthetic approach to evolution as it applies to the plant kingdom." With this simple statement, G. Ledyard Stebbins formulated the objectives of Variation and Evolution in Plants, published in 1950, setting forth for plants what...
