Plantaginaceae
Plantaginaceae, the plantain family, is a large, diverse family of flowering plants in the order Lamiales that includes common flowers such as snapdragon and foxglove. It is unrelated to the banana-like fruit also called "plantain." In older classifications, Plantaginaceae was the only family of the order Plantaginales, but numerous phylogenetic studies, summarized by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, have demonstrated that this taxon should be included within Lamiales. Overview The plantain family as traditionally circumscribed consisted of only three genera: ''Bougueria'', ''Littorella'', and ''Plantago''. However phylogenetic research has indicated that Plantaginaceae ''sensu stricto'' (in the strict sense) were nested within Scrophulariaceae (but forming a group that did not include the type genus of that family, ''Scrophularia''). Although Veronicaceae (1782) is the oldest family name for this group, Plantaginaceae (1789) is a conserved name under the International Code of B ...

Linaria
''Linaria'' is a genus of almost 200 species of flowering plants, one of several related groups commonly called toadflax. They are annuals and herbaceous perennials, and the largest genus in the Antirrhineae tribe of the plantain family Plantaginaceae. Taxonomy ''Linaria'' was traditionally placed in the family Scrophulariaceae. Phylogenetic analysis has now placed it in the vastly expanded family Plantaginaceae. Closely related genera include '' Nuttallanthus'' (American toadflaxes, recently split from ''Linaria''), ''Antirrhinum'' (snapdragons) and ''Cymbalaria'' (ivy-leaved toadflaxes). Cultivation Several ''Linaria'' species are cultivated as garden plants, and some are regarded as having a weedy habit. *Common toadflax or butter-and-eggs (''Linaria vulgaris''), a European species which is widely introduced elsewhere and grows as a common weed in some areas. *Broomleaf toadflax or Dalmatian toadflax ('' Linaria genistifolia'', syn. ''L. dalmatica''), a native of southe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
