Organized in 1936, ASPT promotes research in and teaching of taxonomy, systematics, and phylogenetics of all plants. With over 1,000 members, the Society furthers its mission by publishing two journals: Systematic Botany and Systematic Botany Monographs, providing funding for research and travel, and convening annual scientific meetings.
