Define Difference between Plant Systematic and Taxonomy?

Before coming to principles of taxonomy let us discuss the difference between taxonomy and systematic. Systematic is the science of identifying, naming and classifying ail organisms. The potential economic uses of plants may not be immediately evident, but we must know which plants are related to one another in order to predict their properties. Wild relatives of our cultivated plants often have genes that can provide the desirable qualities, such as disease resistance, needed by plant breeders for crop improvement. Even non scientists can more readily understand evolution and variation by observing the relationship of form and function that are so conspicuous among flowers. Thus this is the subject which fascinates scientist and non scientist alike.

Before coming to principles of systematic let us define systematic and know that difference between systematic and taxonomy. For example Systematic botany is the broad field concerned with the study of the diversity of plants and
