Description: The backbone has species and genus synonyms for the plant kingdom.
This comes from the sources (in this case palaeodb) but the nub build should ignore such relations.
For all taxa of rank family and above there should be no synonyms at rank genus or below. Such source records should simply be ignored]]>
