For the last 50 years, Sahni Institute played a significant role in advancing paleobotanical studies in India. However, no one attempted to write a textbook on paleobotany to meet the needs of Indian undergraduate and graduate students who depend on foreign textbooks with only passing references to Indian research. This book is Agashe's attempt to fill this void. The book consists of 25 chapters. The initial five chapters introduce paleobotanical history, principles of geologic age, types of plant fossils, and the techniques employed to study them. Chapter 6 deals with Precambrian paleobotany and chapter 7 with the classification of fossil plants. Major groups of fossil plants are individually treated in chapters 8-19 and 22. Gondwana and Tertiary floras of India are reviewed briefly in chapters 20 and 21. Applied paleobotany is discussed in the final three chapters (23-25). Paleontologists throughout the world have a great interest in the origin of angiosperms and in fossil angiosperm records. A huge amount of literature on new discoveries has been published in the last two decades, for example, Triassic angiospermid pollen from Arizona

It was established as a science in early classical times when Aristotle and his pupils designed a systematic approach to studying and classifying plant species. There are many disciplines defined in modern botany, including many plant biology specialties and a variety of applied plant sciences.

Extractions: Geosciences 2nd Edition In stock This new edition of a successful textbook describes and explains in a refreshingly clear way the origin and evolution of plants as revealed by the fossil record and summarises paleobotanical information relevant to our present understanding of the relationships between the major plant groups, extant and extinct. As in the first edition, the text is profusely illustrated with line illustrations and half-tones. For those students with little knowledge of plant structure and morphology there is a brief resumé of those features of extant plants that will be needed to gain a better understanding of the fossil record. Summarizing charts are also used to help students visualise the interpretative material. This textbook is well written and well researched. In all, it is a pleasure to own.Nature I recommend it as an excellent text and as a valuable reference work for those in related fields.American Scientist I have seldom read a textbook with such enthusiasm and I shall recommend it to students and staff alike.The Scientist

Extractions: Paleobotany of Australia and New Zealand conifers Source: All text below this point is quoted verbatim. Pole, M. (1993). Keeping in touch: vegetation prehistory on both sides of the Tasman. Australian Systematic Botany At the end of the Cretaceous New Zealand broke away from the Australian-Antarctic continental mass and was physically isolated by the Tasman Sea. Early in the Tertiary New Zealand moved a long way north relative to Australia, but with the rapid northward movement of Australia, starting in the Eocene, Australia overtook New Zealand, so that much of the South Island of New Zealand now lies south of Tasmania. The northward and relative movements of the two blocks provide an interesting framework for comparing the development of their vegetation. In the Late Cretaceous New Zealand and Australia were physically attached and shared a flora dominated by podocarp and araucarian conifers and deciduous angiosperms, consistent with growth in a polar latitude with periods of winter darkness. When New Zealand broke away and moved north, a typically evergreen angiosperm-dominated flora developed. This showed similarities to the extant and fossil flora of the Australian mainland. To the south, Tasmania developed a quite distinct flora often dominated by conifers.

The Department of Palaeobotany is the largest centre of palaeobotanical study in Poland. The department was founded by Professor W³adys³aw Szafer who became its first leader from 19531960, during which time he initiated the majority of the research areas that are continued until the present day. From 19611978, the department continued to develop under the leadership of Professor Szafers successor Professor Andrzej rodoñ. After Professor Srodoñ's retirement in 1978, research within the

Extractions: Paleobotany * Plant Biology 470/598. Spring 2001 Precambrian Life and Fossil Algae This week's laboratory is a brief summary of fossils that represent Precambrian life and the fossil record of the algae and the fungi. We will look at representatives of each group and explore some of the evolutionary and ecological questions that have come up in their study. I. Precambrian life Historically, researchers thought that stromatolites represented the earliest indirect evidence of life. Stromatolites are banded or laminated structures found in limestone, dolomite or chert that sometimes appear as concentric rings. Since some modern algae, particularly cyanobacteria, produce similar structures (called sea biscuits) it was deduced that Precambrian stromatolites were produced by ancient algae. Although it is now known that stromatolite-like structures can form both biotically and abiotically, so their occurrence does not conclusively demonstrate evidence of life. Look at the photographs of modern and fossil stromatolites in the book by Mary White, The greening of Gondwana . (p. 22). Look also at the hand specimens of Collenia, a stromatolite structure from the Precambrian of Minnesota.

Extractions: Department of Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT. Where are we now? As any evolutionary biologist or ecologist knows from experience, the organisms most successfully adapted to a given environment will generally perceive any form of rapid change as decay of the environment and decreasing fitness. This is the famous Red Queen hypothesis, after a fictional character who must run as fast as she can just to stay in place. It seems probable that future historians of science will view the end of this century as a period of extremely rapid change. It is not surprising, then, to read in society newsletters and hear at meetings wails of distress over the "poor state of (insert your field of research here)". This view, which seems to be especially common within older fields of science, is a reflection of the even more famous hypothesis that The Grass is Always Greener on the Other Side, together with a corollary of the Red Queen hypothesis, that Things Used to Be Better. But what basis do these ideas have in reality? And what should we do? Do you believe in Punctuated Equilibrium? Paleobiologists know from studying the fossil record that rapid change may be responsible not only for mass extinction events
