WONG, K.M. The Morphology, Anatomy, Biology & Classification of Peninsular Malaysian Bamboos. , Kuala Lumpur: University of Malaya, 1995.983-99033-0-6 Illustrated, pp (6), 189, dustwrapper, a very good copy. [This book is an account of bamboo morphology, biology and classification that can be appreciated through using the Malayan bamboo flora as a reference point. In particular, it is relevant to botanists now seeking to make better documentation of bamboos, which remain one of the poorest documented plant groups in spite of their general utility, no doubt because their structure and identification have not been well understood and documented all this time. Discussions on the growth architecture of the bamboo plant body, aspects of plant biology that include the fascinating range of flowering behaviour to be found among different bamboos, and the use of various characters (including especially anatomical features) in constructing a classification, are the main focus.] (Book ref. 003700) £30.00 The payment methods accepted by the seller, Mike Park Ltd , are shown in the right-hand column. |
