Nolana Leptophylla
''Nolana'' (Chilean bell flower) is a genus of hard annual or perennial plants in the nightshade family. The genus is mostly native to Chile and Peru. Species in this genus, especially '' N. paradoxa'', serve as a model system for studies on flower color. Classification There are a number of synonyms for ''Nolana'': ''Alibrexia'', ''Aplocarya'', ''Bargemontia'', ''Dolia'', ''Gubleria'', ''Leloutrea'', ''Neudorfia'', ''Osteocarpus'', ''Pachysolen'', ''Periloba'', ''Rayera'', ''Sorema'', ''Teganium'', ''Tula'', ''Velpeaulia'', ''Walberia'', and ''Zwingera''. ''Nolana'' is the only genus in the Solanaceae which has a fruit composed of mericarps, although its flower and other vegetative morphology is similar to other plants in this family. It seems to be most closely related to '' Lycium'' and ''Grabowskia''. There are about 85 to 89 species.Dillon, M. O. and J.

Nolana Atriplicifolia
''Nolana paradoxa'', the Chilean bellflower, is a species of flowering plant in the family Solanaceae, native to central and southern Chile. A spreading half-hardy annual reaching and useful as an edger or ground cover, it requires full sun. There is a cultivar, 'Blue Bird'. ''N. paradoxa'' serves as a model system for scientific studies on flower color.

Solanaceae Genera
The Solanaceae , or nightshades, are a family (biology), family of flowering plants that ranges from Annual plant, annual and perennial herbs to vines, lianas, epiphytes, shrubs, and trees, and includes a number of agricultural crops, medicinal plants, spices, weeds, and ornamentals. Many members of the family contain potent alkaloids, and some are highly toxin, toxic, but many—including tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, bell pepper, bell and chili peppers—are used as Food#Planta, food. The family belongs to the order Solanales, in the Asterids, asterid group and class Magnoliopsida (dicotyledons). The Solanaceae consists of about 98 genera and some 2,700 species, with a great diversity of habitats, Morphology (biology), morphology and ecology. The name Solanaceae derives from the genus ''Solanum''. The etymology of the Latin word is unclear. The name may come from a perceived resemblance of certain solanaceous flowers to the sun and its rays. At least one species of ''Solanum'' ...

Solanoideae
Solanoideae is a subfamily of the flowering plant family Solanaceae, and is sister to the subfamily Nicotianoideae. Within Solanaceae, Solanoideae contains some of the most economically important genera and species, such as the tomato (''Solanum lycopersicum''), potato (''Solanum tuberosum''), eggplant or aubergine (''Solanum melongena''), chili and bell peppers (''Capsicum'' spp.), mandrakes ('' Mandragora'' spp.), and jimson weed (''Datura stramonium''). This subfamily consists of several well-established tribes: Capsiceae, Datureae, Hyoscyameae, Juanulloeae, Lycieae, Nicandreae, Nolaneae, Physaleae, Solandreae, and Solaneae. The subfamily also contains the contended tribes Mandragoreae and Jaboroseae. Tribal relationships The relationship between the tribes has recently been well described. Nicandreae is the most basal tribe of the family, placing sister to the other 9 (or by some counts 11) tribes. Datureae lies sister to Nicandreae, Physaleae, Capsiceae, and Solaneae ...
