| Abstract | The interconnection of the three organismic levels, metabolism, morphology, and biogeography, can now be
amplified into a multipart architecture, introducing plant bioactivity through ethnobotany-oriented descriptions.
Only via such an integrative model, the diverse organismic levels can be connected within a more
holistic, realistic scheme. Construction of qualitative and quantitative models via evolutionarily conceived
implantation into dahlgrenograms and Sporne indices, allows ethnobotany to acquire predictive validity. The
coherence of such systems was demonstrated by comparison of the vast ethnobotanical Brazilian database
by Pio Corrêa with relatively very minute databases referring to three Amazonian Indian societies. | en_US |
