("breathing roots")‚ and a marked tendency to germinate their seeds on the tree. These features have consequently enabled mangroves to dominate the muddy coasts‚ leaving few competitors and only a small percentage of non-mangroves surviving in the harsh conditions‚ - most of the non-mangroves‚ as you will find‚ being part of the myrtle family.

which will be presented in a topical manner. Classification The classification of plants is the understanding of the relationships and similarities between plants.
