Aurantioideae
Aurantioideae (sometimes known as Citroideae) is the subfamily within the rue and citrus family (Rutaceae) that contains the citrus. The subfamily's center of diversity is in the monsoon region of eastern Australasia, extending west through South Asia into Africa, and eastwards into Polynesia. Notable members include citrus (genus ''Citrus''), bael (''Aegle marmelos''), curd fruit (''Limonia acidissima''), species of genus ''Murraya'' such as curry tree (''M. koenigii'') and orange jessamine (''M. paniculata''), and the small genus ''Clausena''. Description Aurantioideae are smallish trees or large shrubs, or rarely lianas. Their flowers are typically white and fragrant. Their fruit are very characteristic hesperidia, usually of rounded shape and colored in green, yellowish or orange hues. Taxonomy The subfamily has been divided into two tribes, the ancestral Clauseneae and the more advanced Citreae, as in a 1967 classification. A 2021 classification by Appelhans et al. bas ...

Micromelum Minutum Fruit And Foliage
''Micromelum'' is a genus of eight species of flowering plants in the family Rutaceae. Description The genus includes evergreen and deciduous shrubs and trees. The leaves are glandular and aromatic, containing essential oils. They are alternately arranged. They are usually pinnate, divided into up to 23 leaflets, except for ''M. diversifolium'', which sometimes has undivided leaf blades. The leaflet edges are smooth or toothed. There are sometimes glandular stipules. The inflorescence is a large panicle, sometimes flat-topped like a corymb, growing from the leaf axils or at the ends of branches. The flowers have five narrow petals in shades of green, white, or yellow, borne in a hairy, cup-like calyx with five lobes or five separate sepals. The odor of the flowers has been described as "malodorous" and "foetid". There are 10 stamens and 1 to 5 styles. The genus is noted for the unusual curving or twisting of the chambers in the ovary. The fruit is a berry up to a centimete ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Swinglea Glutinosa
''Swinglea'' is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Rutaceae. It only contains a single species, ''Swinglea glutinosa''. It is native to the Philippines. The genus name of ''Swinglea'' is in honour of Walter Tennyson Swingle Walter Tennyson Swingle (January 8, 1871 – January 19, 1952) was an American agricultural botanist who contributed greatly to the classification and taxonomy of citrus. Biography Swingle was born in Canaan, Pennsylvania, and moved with his ... (1871–1952), an American agricultural botanist who contributed greatly to the classification and taxonomy of citrus. The genus has one known synonym of ''Chaetospermum'' . The Latin specific epithet of ''glutinosa'' is derived from ''gluten'' meaning glue. Both the genus and the species were first described and published in J. Arnold Arbor. Vol.8 on page 131 in 1927.

Bergera
''Bergera'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rutaceae. It has been included in ''Murraya'' as ''M.'' sect. ''Bergera''. Species that may be placed in the genus are native from India through southeast Asia eastwards to China and Taiwan southwards to Malesia and New Caledonia. The curry tree, ''Bergera koenigii'', is one of the better known species. Taxonomy The genus name ''Bergera'' was first published by Johann Gerhard König in 1771. ''Bergera'' was accepted as a separate genus for several decades after König's description, but was later united with the genus ''Murraya'' (for which ''Bergera'' had been rejected as a name). In 1986, Paul P.-H. But and co-authors separated off some species of ''Murraya'' as ''M.'' sect. ''Bergera'' based on chemical evidence. The later creation of a separate genus for the section was further supported by evidence from pollen morphology in 2009 and molecular phylogenetic evidence in 2017.

Citrus
''Citrus'' is a genus of flowering trees and shrubs in the rue family, Rutaceae. Plants in the genus produce citrus fruits, including important crops such as oranges, lemons, grapefruits, pomelos, and limes. The genus ''Citrus'' is native to South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Melanesia, and Australia. Various citrus species have been used and domesticated by indigenous cultures in these areas since ancient times. From there its cultivation spread into Micronesia and Polynesia by the Austronesian expansion (c. 3000–1500 BCE); and to the Middle East and the Mediterranean (c. 1200 BCE) via the incense trade route, and onwards to Europe and the Americas. History Citrus plants are native to subtropical and tropical regions of Asia, Island Southeast Asia, Near Oceania, and northeastern Australia. Domestication of citrus species involved much hybridization and introgression, leaving much uncertainty about when and where domestication first happened. A genomic, phylog ...
