In 1813 he published his Elementary Theory of Botany. In this he extended and developed taxonomical schemes from Cuvier and Linnaeus,describing a system which was used for the next 50 years. His taxonomy was based on morphology rather than physiology. Candolle also studied plant geography and the influence of soil types | |
