Course description
The field of ethnobotany studies the uses of plants by humans. This coursewill focus on the diversity of plant uses, covering approaches of diversecultures, including plant uses specific to North Dakota, especially plant usesof Native Americans. Objectives are that students:
will have integral picture of plant uses and their respective culturalbackground/histories;
will be able to analyze information accompanying different plant-basedproducts (including pharmaceutical);
will know basic principles of plant cultivation, useful plant identificationand survival based on plant use.
Students will demonstrate this knowledge in a classroom presentation at thebeginning of each lab. Laboratories will concentrate on plant cultivation,collection, identification and databasing.

Labs
Receiving zero points for more than one laboratory results in afailed course.Grading of laboratories is based on reports and/or drawings.Written reports and/or drawings are prepared and finished duringlaboratory sessions and passed to the instructor right after theparticular laboratory session.

1 emergency situations,2 attested medical conditions,3 military duty,4 participation in MSU sports events,5 dependent sick leave.
Absence from exams or laboratories needs to be announced to theinstructor in advance via e-mail. It is essential to attend lectures sincethere are no other reference is available at the moment.

Ethnobotany Introduction
Ethnobotany in general
Ethnobotany is not a “pure” science, it is a multidisciplinaryapproach on the boundary of botany, genetics, evolution, history,anthropology and sociologyIt may be taught in strikingly different ways, each ethnobotanycourse is differentWe will concentrate on plant uses along with evolutionary andhistorical aspects, and will emphasize the use of plants by NativeAmericans and useful prairie plants of North Dakota

Ethnobotany Classification
Basics of scientific classification
Every plant belongs to several embedded taxonomic groupsEvery group has name and rankNames usually are one Latin word, but species have binarynames: name of genus + species epithetMost important ranks are (in sequence from bigger to smaller):kingdom, family, genus and species*

Ethnobotany Classification
Taxonomic framework for cultivated plants
All plants belong to its own kingdom, Vegetabilia.Most of cultivated plants are angiosperms (flowering plants,Angiospermae).In most cases, we will need to memorize the family of plant. Thisis important characteristic since families are stable natural units ofcommon evolutionary origin.
