| 词条 | De Fructibus et Seminibus Plantarum |
| 释义 |
De Fructibus was based on specimens of over a thousand genera, including Australian and Pacific specimens from the collection of Sir Joseph Banks, and South African specimens from the collection of Carl Peter Thunberg. It was essentially a study of fruits and seeds, but the resultant classification was outstanding for its time. Julius Sachs claimed that the work "forms an epoch in the history of botany", writing {{quote|"[Gaertner]'s great work was at once an inexhaustible mine of single well-ascertained facts, and a guide to the morphology of the organs of fructification and to its application to systematic botany.... [T]he whole theory of the flower was thus placed upon a better basis.... Gärtner's theory of the seed is one of his most valuable contributions to the science.... [H]is views far surpass in clearness and consistency all that had hitherto been taught on the subject."[2]}} References1. ^Australasian Herbaria 2. ^{{cite book | author = Sachs, Julius von; Garnsey, Henry E.
