Abstract
A survey of all the 154 scientific publications of Emilio Battaglia (1917–2011) is presented, grouped in three main research interests – plant embryology, cytogenetics in plants and cytological terminology – plus other less relevant contributions. Battaglia's past and present role in these disciplines is briefly discussed, in the light of current research on these topics, partly reviewed also in other contributions of the present Plant Biosystems issue.
