20: 90:, being interested in the inter-relationship between a plant's construction and its functionality. He took a mechanistic approach to his botanical studies, believing that a plant's anatomical structure conformed to principles of mechanics. He conducted extensive research on the mechanics of 275:

At the time his theory was largely rejected, but it was afterwards proven to be factual. During his long career he had several renowned students and assistants, including 472: 447: 457: 437: 365: 432: 246: 452: 427: 218: 462: 422: 386: 311: 138: 19: 390: 369: 298:
