Evolutionary lineages

An evolutionary lineage is a series of populations of organisms that descend from a common ancestor. Each species in the lineage is the direct consequence of evolutionary change from a common ancestor. A phylogenetic tree is generally used to display lineages visually. Lineages are components of the phylogenetic tree of life. Molecular systematics procedures are widely used to predict lineages.

Each unit of stem that consists of a leaf, axillary bud and internode is referred to as a phytomere. Note that axillary buds always occur above a leaf. Axillary buds give rise to branch shoots. Thus, branching in a shoot system is exogenous (of external origin). How does this compare to branching in a root system?
