A Plant Taxonomy for Designing Control Experiments

Control experiments can have a significant impact on control theory by forcing researchers to confront real-world issues that affect design tradeoffs and performance specifications. Sensor and actuator constraints, modeling and identification issues, and hardware imperfections (such as noise, drift, bias, and nonlinearity) must all be addressed for successful controller implementation. Control ...

Chemical characters in plant taxonomy: some possibilities and limitations.

Chemical plant taxonomy or chemotaxonomy of plants may be defined as a sciertific investigation of the potentialities of chemical characters for the study of problems of plant taxonomy and plant phylogeny. Plant taxonomy is the science of delimiting, describing and naming appropriately taxat and arranging them in a natural system of plants. Principles of chemotaxonomy were elaborated in the pas...

Guidelines for the choice of sequences for molecular plant taxonomy.

This chapter presents an overview of the major plant DNA sequences and molecular methods available for plant taxonomy. Guidelines are provided for the choice of sequences and methods to be used, based on the DNA compartment (nuclear, chloroplastic, mitochondrial), evolutionary mechanisms, and the level of taxonomic differentiation of the plants under survey.
