Aug 3, 2024 · New taxonomic names have been incorporated into WFO from nomenclators: International Plant Name Index (IPNI, https://www.ipni.org) for vascular plants, and Tropicos (https://www.tropicos.org) for bryophytes.

Backed by the international taxonomic community, the WFO provides two fundamental data resources critical for underpinning botanical research, plant conservation and the sustainable use of plant resources.

Apr 24, 2024 · Now, almost 300 plant biologists have banded together to resolve the tangled roots of today’s 330,000 angiosperm species. Their new tree of life for flowering plants, reported today in Nature, largely confirms and extends previous reconstructions—but also suggests a few surprising ancestries.
