New on Digital Encyclopedia: Branching
I have released a new page on Branching to the Digital Encyclopedia of Ancient Life. You can view it here: https://www.digitalatlasofancientlife.org/learn/embryophytes/tracheophytes/branching/ Image explanation: Branching in fossil plants. Left: Stem of a scale tree ( Lepidodendron ) showing a dichotomy. Center: Asterophyllites (an extinct horsetail-like plant) with lateral branching. Right. Branch of dawn redwood ( Metasequoia occidentalis ) with branchlets; branching is lateral and axillary in conifers. (Images by Fiona O'Brien, Robert Swerling, and Linda S.
