GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The study of the spatial distributions of plants and vegetation and of the environmental relationships which may influence these distributions. Plant geography (or certain aspects of it) is also known as phytogeography, phytochorology, geobotany, geographical botany, or vegetation science.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phytogeography, also called geobotany, is the branch of biogeography that is concerned with the geographic distribution of plant species, or more generally, plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -Phytogeography is the study of the distribution of plants or taxonomic groups of plants and its focus is to explain the ranges of plants in terms of their origin, dispersal, and evolution (Matthews et al., 2003).

Detailed explanation-4: -Phytogeography is defined by Good (1964) as ‘that branch of botany that deals with the spatial relationships of plants both in the present and the past’.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phytogeography is often divided into two main branches: ecological phytogeography and historical phytogeography.
