A system of plant taxonomy, the Kubitzki system was published in
- Kubitzki, K. et al. (1990 ongoing). The families and genera of vascular plants.
The system is important as being a comprehensive, multivolume treatment of the vascular plants, with descriptive treatments of all families and genera, mostly by specialists in those groups. The Kubitzki system has served as the family-level reference to pteridophyte and gymnosperm classification, as well as for the angiosperm groups published up to that date, for the influential dictionary:
- Mabberley, D.J. (1997). The plant-book. A portable dictionary of the vascular plants (2nd ed.).
The classification system in the initial angiosperm volumes closely resembles the Cronquist system in ordinal and family arrangements, but later volumes have been influenced by recent molecular systematic studies. The recent volume on Malvales adopts a classification close to that of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group:
- Kubitzki, K. and M. W. Chase (2003). "Introduction to Malvales in Malvales, Capparales and non-betalain Caryophyllales. K. Kubitzki (ed.)". The families and genera of vascular plants vol. 5: 12–16.
