Guizotia Abyssinica
''Guizotia abyssinica'' is an erect, stout, branched annual herb, grown for its edible oil and seed. Its cultivation originated in the Eritrea, Eritrean and Ethiopian highlands, and has spread to other parts of Ethiopia. Common names include noog/nug (Ethiopian Semitic languages, Ethio-Semitic and Languages of Eritrea, Eritrean ኑግ ''nūg'' or ኒህዩግ ''nihyug''); niger, nyger, or nyjer seed (all pronounced ); ramtil or ramtilla; inga seed; and blackseed.

It bears a fairly thick, adherent seed coat and can be stored for up to a year without deterioration. Niger seed contains proteins, oil and soluble sugars. Noug has been described as semi-domesticated, self-incompatible crop with yellow flowering heads and seeds Recent studies have used molecular markers to reveal the genetic diversity of some noug populatio ...

Guizotia Jacksonii
''Guizotia jacksonii'' is a low, creeping, perennial plant with ovate leaves and yellow flowerheads belonging to the family Asteraceae. This species is endemic to Kenya, and grows in along roads and other open treaded places in the forest zones the central highlands of Kenya. Taxonomy In 1902, Spencer Le Marchant Moore was the first to describe this species of sunfleck as ''Coreopsis jacksonii'', based on a specimen collected by Frederick John Jackson from the Kiambu County in Kenya in 1899. John Hutchinson assigned a plant collected by Battiscombe from the Aberdare Range in Nyandarua County to the genus ''Guizotia'' and called it ''G. reptans''. Earl Edward Sherff described in 1923 a plant from the western slopes of Mount Kenya, found by Mearns, as ''Bidens spathulata''. By 1926 he had realised it was identical to Moore's species, but as he thought it better placed in ''Bidens'', he made the new combination ''B. jacksonii''. Robert Elias Fries collected a slightly different sp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Asia
Asia (, ) is one of the world's most notable geographical regions, which is either considered a continent in its own right or a subcontinent of Eurasia, which shares the continental landmass of Afro-Eurasia with Africa. Asia covers an area of , about 30% of Earth's total land area and 8.7% of Earth's total surface area. The continent, which has long been home to the majority of the human population, was the site of many of the first civilizations. Its 4.7 billion people constitute roughly 60% of the world's population. In general terms, Asia is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Indian Ocean, and on the north by the Arctic Ocean. The border of Asia with Europe is a historical and cultural construct, as there is no clear physical and geographical separation between them. It is somewhat arbitrary and has moved since its first conception in classical antiquity. The division of Eurasia into two continents reflects East–West cultural, linguistic, ...

North America
North America is a continent in the Northern Hemisphere and almost entirely within the Western Hemisphere. It is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast by South America and the Caribbean Sea, and to the west and south by the Pacific Ocean. Because it is on the North American Plate, North American Tectonic Plate, Greenland is included as a part of North America geographically. North America covers an area of about , about 16.5% of Earth's land area and about 4.8% of its total surface. North America is the third-largest continent by area, following Asia and Africa, and the list of continents and continental subregions by population, fourth by population after Asia, Africa, and Europe. In 2013, its population was estimated at nearly 579 million people in List of sovereign states and dependent territories in North America, 23 independent states, or about 7.5% of the world's population.
