Sounds like a great showcase for categorization. I’m not a botanist, but would appreciate examples of how this would be organized.
It seems to me that a strict hierarchy would be enough to pigeonhole most things, but then there’s cross-species events, like mules versus donkeys. New species and alleles would be of interest - but I’m speaking as a non-botanist with crushing ignorance of evolution.
A system supporting tags or keywords would go a long way to providing the needed structure. I always remember using The Brain fondly, because of its jump thoughts, which were more useful to me in those days than tags.
