More than naming of parts
Nature Plants 1, Article number: 15086 (2015) ​doi:10.1038/nplants.2015.86
Published online 02 June 2015

Botany underpins the modern world, not only agriculture but medicine,
material science, chemistry and much more. Yet it has been belittled to the
point where even the name botany is out of favour; too outdated for a
modern science. Thankfully botanical researchers continue to look forward,
not back.

See the link above for the full editorial text. The editorial is open
access, but if you have access to Nature there is another article in the
same issue of Nature Plants about botanical gardens and how they can help
with agriculture (http://www.nature.com/articles/nplants201578).
