Memorable Dinner

Brother Don, Gladys and their daughter Laurie came up from Syracuse to visit and have Dinner with us here in Brookdale this noon. We had an excellent breaded Shrimp meal in the private dining room. Laurie took this picture and told of the upcoming marriage of their daughter. She and husband Jim have both had successful civil service careers at the Offutt AFB. The painting on the wall is of the house at the farm where Don, I and our Dad grew up and where Don and Gladys lived after getting married. (The clock is from Elaine's maternal side of her family). Our visits always result in each of us learning of some new family connections. I pulled up some of my old "Crow's Nest" post that helped answer some of our questions. It was ironic that their visit today was on the 122nd anniversary of our Dad's Birth. Don raised a Toast to him which we all joined in with our water glasses at the Dinner table.

Previously we have discussed ' Botanical classification of plants ' and ' Agronomic Use classification of the crops '. Now, we will discuss a classification of crops based on their use in the field in different cropping systems; Crop Classification based on Purpose in field (article cover) 1. Catch crops or Contingent Crops Catch crops are cultivated in the field to catch the forthcoming season. The main reason for their plantation is that the main crop has failed in the field due to any biotic or abiotic stress. Hence, these crops are cultivated in the field for a number of reason; � They are fast growth rate and short duration crops. � They can be easily harvested or used in the field at any desired time (for example, as green manure). � They are easily adaptable to the season, soil and fa

Classification and Nomenclature of Fungi

Fungi are small, generally microscopic, eukaryotic, usually filamentous, branched, spore-bearing organisms that lack chlorophyll. Fungi have cell walls that contain chitin and glucans (but no cellulose) as the skeletal components. What is Phylogenetic Classification? A classification based on the evolutionary relationships is known as Phylogenetic classification . A taxon (plural; taxa) is any category of classification. IMPORTANCE Although classification can be done on the basis of any criteria but classifying on the basis of phylogenetic relationships aid us �   in understanding the evolutionary changes and �   allow one to make prediction on the basis of what is known about an organism and its close relatives.
