What advantage does the phylogenic classification system have over the Linnaean system?

Question

anonymous · Answer

Modern taxonomy still uses the form, structure and function of Linnaeus when comparing both living and extinct species (through fossil record). In addition, scientists now incorporate DNA technology and our modern understanding of evolution. Life is organized based on evolutionary relationships and most recent common ancestry. The study of evoltuionary relationships using genetic data is know as phylogentics

..incorporating the ideas of evolution is one of the major advantage in phylogenetic classification and not just the hierarchy..

today..??

but it is told to us that bentham and hookers natural classification is used all overt he world

^^^^ in case of plants

anonymous · Answer

@deepika.comet --they are the taxanomists who did it..but the criteria is phylogeny and not just hierarchy.

anonymous · Answer

though we use hierarchy as in linnaeus system we also consider evolutionary ideas in phylogenetic classification.
that is the advantage over linnaeus classification

deepika.comet · Answer

it was specified that not phylogenic  but natural is used..!!!

ohh k

anonymous · Answer

bentham and hookers is natural classification.they just took the constant charecters in organisms as criteria.. but phylogeny takes evolutionary ideas also like whittaker's @deepika.comet http://www.majordifferences.com/2013/02/difference-between-natural-and_14.html#.U-za3_mSx-M this gives clear idea
