A modern system of plant taxonomy, the APG II system of plant classification was published in 2003 by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, APG, in This list of systems of plant taxonomy presents “taxonomic systems” used in plant classification. ... The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group is an international group of systematic botanists who have come together to try to establish a consensus view of the taxonomy of flowering plants in the light of the rapid rise of molecular systematics. ...

The APG II system is the successor of the APG system. Each of these systems represents the broad consensus of a number of systematic botanists, united in the APG, working at several institutions worldwide. Continued development beyond APG II can be followed at the APG-companion site . A modern system of plant taxonomy, the APG system of plant classification was published in 1998 by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group. ...

The APG II system has proven to be influential and has been adopted in whole or in part (sometimes with modifications) in a number of recent references.

Main groups in the system (all unranked clades): In botanical nomenclature, a taxon is usually assigned to a rank in a hierarchy. ... A clade is group of organisms which share a common ancestor and which includes all decendents of that ancestor. ...
