		Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (June 5, 1656 – December 28, 1708) was a French botanist.
		With the concept of the genus, Tournefort was able to cluster the 6,000 known plant species into just 600 genera, making classification easier, and preparing the way for Linnaeus.
		He was run over and killed by a carriage in Paris in the road which now bears his name (Rue de Tournefort in the 5ème arrondissement).

	Bernard de Jussieu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bernard de Jussieu (August 17, 1699 - November 6, 1777) was a French naturalist, younger brother of Antoine de Jussieu.
		In 1725 he brought out a new edition of Joseph Pitton de Tournefort's Histoire des plantes qui naissent aux environs de Paris, 2 vols., which was afterwards translated into English by John Martyn, the original work being incomplete.
		Long before Abraham Trembley (1700-1784) published his Histoire des polypes d'eau douce, Jussieu maintained the doctrine that these organisms were animals, and not the flowers of marine plants, then the current notion; and to confirm his views he made three journeys to the coast of Normandy.

	Tournefort, Joseph Pitton de -- Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
		Tournefort's interest in botany began early, but only after the death of his father, who was forcing him toward the priesthood, was he able to drop theology and study botany.
		Tournefort placed primary emphasis on the classification of genera, basing his classification entirely upon the structure of the flower and fruit.
		By his use of a single Latin name for the genus, followed by a few descriptive words for the species, he provided a major step in the development of the binomial nomenclature—that is, the use of a two-word Latin name to denote each species.
