Focusing on the unique evolutionary pathways of plants, this work addresses the organismal bias in evolutionary literature that often neglects plant diversity. It highlights how plants' distinct growth and reproductive strategies challenge conventional evolutionary theories, particularly in speciation. By integrating over a decade of research in molecular biology with topics like genetics and paleobotany, the author emphasizes the importance of studying plant evolution for a comprehensive understanding of life's history on Earth.
