Neesia
Durioneae is a tribe within the subfamily Helicteroideae of the plant family Malvaceae s.l. The tribe contains at least five genera, including ''Durio'', the genus of tree species that produce Durian fruits. Taxonomy Within Durioneae, ''Kostermansia'' and ''Coelostegia'' form a clade that is sister to the clade comprising ''Durio s.s''. and ''Boschia'', which are some consider to comprise a single genus, and ''Cullenia''. Both of these clades form a clade that is sister to the remaining genus of the tribe, ''Neesia''. ''Camptostemon'' and ''Papuodendron'' are often included in this tribe as well. However, certain characters (pollen morphology, androecial vasculature, and wood anatomy, for example) support a closer relationship to the Malvoideae than to the Helicteroideae for these two genera. Durioneae has traditionally been placed within the Bombacaceae because of the combination of monothecate anthers, smooth pollen, and tree habit. However, recent molecular evidence indicate ...

Durio
The durian (, ) is the edible fruit of several tree species belonging to the genus ''Durio''. There are 30 recognised ''Durio'' species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit. ''Durio zibethinus'', native to Borneo and Sumatra, is the only species available in the international market. It has over 300 named varieties in Thailand and 100 in Malaysia, as of 1987. Other species are sold in their local regions. Durians are commonly associated with Southeast Asian cuisine, especially in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, Philippines, Bangladesh and Vietnam. Named in some regions as the "king of fruits", the durian is distinctive for its large size, strong odour, and thorn-covered rind. The fruit can grow as large as long and in diameter, and it typically weighs . Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk green to brown, and its flesh pale yellow to red, depending on the species. An acquired taste, some people regard the durian as having ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Helicteraceae
Malvaceae, or the mallows, is a family of flowering plants estimated to contain 244 genera with 4225 known species. Well-known members of economic importance include okra, cotton, cacao and durian. There are also some genera containing familiar ornamentals, such as ''Alcea'' (hollyhock), ''Malva'' (mallow), and ''Tilia'' (lime or linden tree). The largest genera in terms of number of species include ''Hibiscus'' (300 species), ''Sterculia'' (250 species), ''Dombeya'' (250 species), '' Pavonia'' (200 species) and '' Sida'' (200 species). Taxonomy and nomenclature The circumscription of the Malvaceae is controversial. The traditional Malvaceae ''sensu stricto'' comprise a very homogeneous and cladistically monophyletic group. Another major circumscription, Malvaceae ''sensu lato'', has been more recently defined on the basis that genetics studies have shown the commonly recognised families Bombacaceae, Tiliaceae, and Sterculiaceae, which have always been considered closely allied ...

Ungeria
''Ungeria'' is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Malvaceae. It just contains one species, ''Ungeria floribunda'' Schott & Endl. It is also in the Helicteroideae subfamily and Helictereae tribe. Its native range is Norfolk Island (in the Pacific Ocean near Australia). It is found in Mount Pitt Nature Reserve (part of Norfolk Island National Park).Peter Coyne Description It is a tree that can grow up to tall. It has leaves which are broadly elliptic or obovate and evergreen.Australian Government Pub. Service, 1982 The leaf blades are about long and wide. It has deep pink flowers.

Cullenia
''Cullenia'' is a genus of flowering plants native to India and Sri Lanka. Earlier classification schemes place the genus in the kapok-tree family (Bombacaceae), but the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group places it in the mallow family (Malvaceae). The name is after General William Cullen William Cullen FRS FRSE FRCPE FPSG (; 15 April 17105 February 1790) was a Scottish physician, chemist and agriculturalist, and professor at the Edinburgh Medical School.
