Zusammenfassung:"Phyllotaxy has long been used to interpret organ placement in fossil and extant plants. Many plants unfortunately do not follow the basic phyllotactic laws which have been developed in the past century. This has resulted in a plethora of books and papers both mathematical and biological to interpret a vast array of individual systems. Although a single plant can contain a variety of these systems there has been no cohesive explanation offered by the study of phyllotaxy. To this end is offered a new scientific study to answer many of the problems observed or produced by the study of phyllotaxy. Vasculotaxy studium novum is presented and followed from the earliest plants to modern monocots. Vasculotaxy offers many answers to stelar formation and evolution within many plant taxa. Vasculotaxy also allows for the interpretation of accessory organ development and placement such as formation of megaphylls, microphylls and reproductive organs. Many models are developed based on vasculotaxy and used to interpret stelar form in the Lycopsida, Sphenophyllales, Equisetales, various Polypodiidae, as well as the Medullosan, Calamopityaceae, protogymnosperm/angiosperm and various gymnosperms and angiosperms. Special reference is given to the evolution of the gymnosperms and angiosperms using specific taxa. These investigations illustrate the adaptability of the study of Vasculotaxy to answer all of the growth forms seen in ancient and extant plants as well as anomalous and aberrant morphologies present in genetic studies." -- page [4] of cover
