El sitio web del International Botanical Congress a celebrarse en Melbourne (Julio 2011) contiene listado un Simposio sobre Morfometría Geométrica. Este es el resumen:

T06: Systematics, Evolution, Biogeography & Biodiversity Info
SYM139: Geometric Morphometric In Plant Systematics
Organiser: Dr Nicodemo Giuseppe Passalacqua - University of Calabria

Geometric morphometric was proclaimed as the 'morphometric revolution' in 1993, because it substantially improved statistical methods available for morphological analyses in systematic zoology. This is not the case for plant systematic, mainly because of problems in applying such methodologies to plant samples, such as the recognition of homologous points and the often extreme phenotypic variability in plants. Recently, a growing body of research is demonstrating that using digital image-based morphometric will meet increasing application even in plant systematics, taxonomy and evolution. The symposium will consider different approaches, and achievements in geometric morphometric applied to different research fields of systematic botany.
