Vervain
''Verbena'' (), also known as vervain or verveine, is a genus in the family Verbenaceae. It contains about 150 species of annual and perennial herbaceous or semi-woody flowering plants. The majority of the species are native to the Americas and Asia; however, ''Verbena officinalis'', the common vervain or common verbena, is the type species and native to Europe. Naming In English, the name ''Verbena'' is usually used in the United States and the United Kingdom, whereas elsewhere the terms ''verveine'' or ''vervain'' are in use. When used alone, the terms usually refer to common verbena. Description Verbena is an herbaceous flowering plant, belonging to the Verbenaceae family, and may be annual or perennial depending on the species. The leaves are usually opposite, simple, and in many species hairy, often densely so. The flowers are small, with five petals, and borne in dense spikes. Typically some shade of blue, they may also be white, pink, or purple, especially in cultivars ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Verbena Officinalis
''Verbena officinalis'', the common vervain or common verbena, is a perennial herb native to Europe. It grows up to 70 cm high, with an upright habitus. The lobed leaves are toothed, and the delicate spikes hold clusters of two-lipped mauve flowers. This plant prefers limey soils; it is occasionally grown as an ornamental plant but perhaps more often for the powerful properties some herbalists ascribe to it. Propagation is by root cuttings or seed. It is widely naturalised outside its native range, for example in North America. Common names and taxonomy It is also known as simpler's joy or holy herb, or more ambiguously as "mosquito plant" or "wild hyssop". The common name "blue vervain" is also sometimes used, but also refers to '' V. hastata''. And of course, being the only member of its genus in much of its range, it is also simply known as "vervain" locally. The common names of ''V. officinalis'' in many Central and Eastern European languages often associate it with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mock Vervain
''Glandularia'', common name mock vervain or mock verbena, is a genus of Annual plant, annual and Perennial plant, perennial herbaceous plant, herbaceous flowering plants in the family (biology), family Verbenaceae. They are native plant, native to the Americas. Description These plants, like their relatives the vervains (verbenas), usually have showy five-petalled flowers in shades of pink, purple and blue. Taxonomy ''Glandularia'' species are closely related to the true vervains and sometimes still included with them in ''Verbena''. horizontal gene transfer, Horizontal chloroplast transfer occurred at least twice and possibly three times between these genera, which are otherwise too distinct to warrant unification. Somehow, chloroplasts from ''Verbena orcuttiana, V. orcuttiana'', swamp verbena (''Verbena hastata, V. hastata'') or a close relative of these had admixed into the ''Glandularia bipinnatifida, G. bipinnatifida'' genome. Although hybrid (biology), hyb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Verbena Bonariensis
:''This is about the ''Verbena bonariensis'' described by Linnaeus. See also below for a common misapplication of this taxon.'' ''Verbena bonariensis'', the purpletop vervain, clustertop vervain, Argentinian vervain, tall verbena or pretty verbena, is a member of the verbena family cultivated as a flowering annual or herbaceous perennial plant. In USA horticulture, it is also known by the ambiguous names purpletop (also used for the grass ''Tridens flavus'') and South American vervain (which can mean any of the numerous species in the genus ''Verbena'' occurring in that continent). For the misapplication "Brazilian verbena" see below. It is native to tropical South America where it grows throughout most of the warm regions, from Colombia and Brazil to Argentina and Chile. Description ''Verbena bonariensis'' is a tall and slender-stemmed perennial. It can grow to 6 ft (180 cm) tall and can spread to 3 ft (90 cm) wide. At maturity, it will develop a woody base. ...

Verbena Hastata
''Verbena hastata'', commonly known as American vervain, blue vervain, simpler's joy, or swamp verbena, is a perennial flowering plant in the vervain family Verbenaceae. It grows throughout the continental United States and in much of southern Canada. Description ''V. hastata'' grows as a stiffly erect stem, occasionally branching in the upper half, reaching up to tall. The stems are four-angled (square), hairy, and green to reddish in color. Leaves are opposite, simple, and measure up to long and across. They have doubly-serrate margins and a variety of shapes, from lanceolate to ovate, and may have 2 lateral lobes. The inflorescence is a panicle, or group, of flowering spikes, up to long at the end of the upper stems. Each flowering spike in the panicle is up to long, with densely packed, numerous 5-lobed flowers, which measure up to long. The flowers are violet or deep purple, rarely white. They open from the bottom of the spike upward, with only a ring of a few flowe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Verbenaceae
The Verbenaceae ( ), the verbena family or vervain family, is a family of mainly tropical flowering plants. It contains trees, shrubs, and herbs notable for heads, spikes, or clusters of small flowers, many of which have an aromatic smell. The family Verbenaceae includes 32 genera and 800 species. Phylogenetic studies have shown that numerous genera traditionally classified in Verbenaceae belong instead in Lamiaceae. The mangrove genus ''Avicennia'', sometimes placed in the Verbenaceae or in its own family, Avicenniaceae, has been placed in the Acanthaceae. Economically important Verbenaceae include: * Lemon verbena (''Aloysia triphylla''), grown for aroma or flavoring * Verbenas or vervains (''Verbena''), some used in herbalism, others grown in gardens Taxonomy Tribes and genera in the family and their estimated species numbers: Casselieae (Schauer) Tronc. * '' Casselia'' Nees & Mart. - 6 species * '' Parodianthus'' Tronc. - 2 species * ''Tamonea'' Aubl. - 6 species Ci ...

Glandularia Bipinnatifida
''Glandularia bipinnatifida'', commonly called Dakota mock vervain, prairie verbena, and Moradilla, among others, is a species of flowering plant in the verbena family (Verbenaceae). It is native to the North America, where its natural range extends from the United States south to Nicaragua. In the United States, it is found primarily in the Great Plains and in the Blackland Prairies of the Southeast. Elsewhere in North America, it is occasionally found as a non-persisting waif. Its natural habitat is in open grassy areas, including prairies. It can be found in both high-quality natural communities and in disturbed areas. ''Glandularia bipinnatifida'' is an herbaceous or semi-woody perennial. It produces pink or purple flowers primarily in the spring, but can bloom anytime throughout the growing season. Its leaves are finely dissected, into segments that are 1–4 mm wide. It can be distinguished from the similar-looking ''Glandularia pulchella'' by its long flower bracts, ...

Karyotype
A karyotype is the general appearance of the complete set of metaphase chromosomes in the cells of a species or in an individual organism, mainly including their sizes, numbers, and shapes. Karyotyping is the process by which a karyotype is discerned by determining the chromosome complement of an individual, including the number of chromosomes and any abnormalities. A karyogram or idiogram is a graphical depiction of a karyotype, wherein chromosomes are organized in pairs, ordered by size and position of centromere for chromosomes of the same size. Karyotyping generally combines light microscopy and photography, and results in a photomicrographic (or simply micrographic) karyogram. In contrast, a schematic karyogram is a designed graphic representation of a karyotype. In schematic karyograms, just one of the sister chromatids of each chromosome is generally shown for brevity, and in reality they are generally so close together that they look as one on photomicrographs as well ...
