Agalinis
''Agalinis'' (false foxglove) is a genus of about 70 species in North, Central, and South America that until recently was aligned with members of the family Scrophulariaceae. As a result of numerous molecular phylogenetic studies based on various chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) loci, it was shown to be more closely related to members of the Orobanchaceae. ''Agalinis'' species are hemiparasitic, which is a character that in part describes the Orobanchaceae. The first detailed study of this genus began with Francis W. Pennell around 1908, and his earliest major publication of the North American members of this genus appeared in 1913. Dr. Judith Canne-Hilliker began to revise Pennell's treatment in 1977. Her taxonomic, anatomical, and developmental studies have greatly enhanced our understanding of this sometimes perplexing group. In particular, her studies of the seed surfaces using electron microscopy has shown that the seeds are diagnostic for delimiting species and has resulted in ...

Agalinis Acuta
''Agalinis acuta'' is an annual hemiparasitic plant native to Maryland, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Long Island, New York. Common names include sandplain gerardia and sandplain false foxglove. It is one of about 70 species that comprise genus ''Agalinis''. It currently resides within the family Orobanchaceae, but historically was aligned with members of the Scrophulariaceae. This was one of several re-alignments that were the consequence of the disintegration of the Scrophulariaceae as the result of conclusions based on molecular phylogeny data from the chloroplast genome. While historically regarded as a separate species, molecular phylogenetic data indicates that ''Agalinis acuta'' should be consolidated as part of the species '' Agalinis decemloba''. ''Agalinis acuta'' received federal protection on public lands upon being listed as in 1987 under the Endangered Species Act.U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 1988.

Agalinis Auriculata
''Agalinis auriculata'' is a species of flowering plant in the family Orobanchaceae known as earleaf false foxglove, auriculate false foxglove, and earleaf gerardia. It is endemic to the United States, where it occurs from New Jersey west to Minnesota and throughout most southern states. Description and ecology This plant is a hairy annual herb producing a stiff stem up to tall. The leaves are arranged oppositely on the stem, and the stems have retrorse-hispid hairs and auricled leaves. The purple, five-cleft flowers have two smaller upper lobes which are more united than the three lower ones. The flowers have purple-spotted throats and they bloom in July and September. Today this plant is considered to be vulnerable. Because of this research is being conducted by the Center of Biodiversity focusing on the genetic diversity and disturbances of the Agalinis auriculata to figure more about its distribution and habitats. The plant is hemiparasitic, meaning it contains chloro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
