Science and study of woody plants

Dendrology or xylology is the science and study of woody plants, specifically, their taxonomic classifications.
There is no sharp boundary between plant taxonomy and dendrology; woody plants not only belong to many different plant families, but these families may be made up of both woody and non-woody members.
Some families include only a few woody species.
Dendrology, as a discipline of industrial forestry, tends to focus on identification of economically useful woody plants and their taxonomic interrelationships.
As an academic course of study, dendrology will include all woody plants, native and non-native, that occur in a region.
A related discipline is the study of sylvics, which focuses on the autecology of genera and species.
