Re: [DIYbio] What is a plant?

Is it even a correct question from the perspective of molecular biology and evolution?

It implies that the tree of life if discrete and its branches don't intersect. Which is not true, right? The evolution is a continuum of changes and DNA get mixed long after species diverge on the tree of life, right?

It may sound like a silly question but there are some interesting overlaps and exceptions to most definitions. So guys and gals:
