- Describes geographically isolated variants within a species. These variants may differ in size, shape, or other physical characteristics but they can still successfully interbreed
- Refers to a natural variation within the species.
- This is a cross between two plants from different genera. the 2 genera must be similar genetically to achieve fertilisation.
- These types of plants have two ‘seed leaves’ Their leaves are typically oval or palmate in shape and have net-like veins. They have four or five floral parts, (or multiples thereof).
- When a new plant arises from the point of a graft between 2 genus or species. A + is placed in front of the genus
- In most cases, these are intentionally bred or selected by humans.
- These types of plants have one ‘seed leaf’. Their leaves are typically narrow in shape and have parallel veins. They have three floral parts, (or multiples of 3).
- This is the scientific name for seed bearing, vascular plants that produce an ‘encased’ seed. Primarily fruit, but also other structures such as beans, wheat, rice and corn. These make up approx. 80% of the plant kingdom.
- This is the scientific name for spore bearing, vascular plants.
- This is the scientific name for seed bearing, vascular plants.

- Scientific term for non-vascular plants
- Common name for tracheophytes
- These bryophytes may be found worldwide, although they thrive primarily in damp or humid environments. Their ‘sporophytes’ are long and slender.
- Also known as the ‘fern allies’, these are a clade of vascular plants similar to ferns, but have unique leaves called ‘microphylls’. These plants reproduce through spores rather than seeds
- This is the scientific name for seed bearing, vascular plants that produce a ‘naked’ seed.
- Refers to a group of closely related species.
- Common name for bryophytes
- Scientific term for vascular plants
- These bryophytes lack complex stems and roots. They absorb water and nutrients through their simple leaves and produce their food through photosynthesis.
- Often growing in wet areas, these have hollow, jointed stems that resemble bamboo. Similar to lycophytes, these pteridophytes have mycrophyllic leaves/branches that radiate from the nodes of a single vertical stem. These plants reproduce through spores rather than seed.
