evolution
Evolution is the process by which heritable traits in plant populations change over successive generations through mechanisms such as natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation. Understanding plant evolution reveals how species have adapted to diverse environments, developed defenses against pathogens and herbivores, and diversified into the enormous variety of forms seen today. This knowledge underpins modern plant breeding, conservation efforts, and our ability to predict how plant populations may respond to environmental change.
