An overview of the biology and diversity of the entire Plant Kingdom and their relationship with traditionally associated taxa 'algae, fungi, and lichens'. Emphasis is placed on the relationship between structural form and functional innovations in plants, and how anatomical, morphological, and physiological changes have influenced reproduction, fitness, and evolution of plants across ecosystems. Co-evolutionary relationships and symbioses between or among different kinds of plants, and with other groups of organisms, are also considered.
