Apios
''Apios'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae. It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae. It contains seven species of perennial climbing herbs or scandent shrubs. Several members of this genus are known to have edible, tuberous roots. ''Apios'' species are native to eastern North America, from eastern Canada through the eastern and Central United States, and to eastern and southeastern Asia, from the Himalayas through Indochina, China, Korea, and Japan, from approximately 50° to 20° north latitude. The name "''Apios''" comes from the Greek word for "pear" and may refer the pear shape of some tubers. Species Seven species are accepted: *''Apios americana ''Apios americana'', sometimes called the American groundnut, potato bean, hopniss, Indian potato, hodoimo, America-hodoimo, cinnamon vine, or groundnut (not to be confused with other plants in the subfamily Faboideae sometimes known by that na ...'' – eastern Canada and eastern and central United States ...

Apios Americana
''Apios americana'', sometimes called the American groundnut, potato bean, hopniss, Indian potato, hodoimo, America-hodoimo, cinnamon vine, or groundnut (not to be confused with other plants in the subfamily Faboideae sometimes known by that name) is a perennial vine that bears edible beans and large edible tubers. Description The vine of American groundnut can grow to long. It has pinnate leaves long with 5–7 leaflets. The flowers are usually pink, purple, or red-brown, and are produced in dense racemes in length. The fruit is a legume (pod) long. In botanical terms, the tubers are rhizomatous stems, not roots. Genetics The species is normally 2n=2x=22, diploid, but both diploid and triploid forms exist. Only diploids are capable of producing seeds; triploids will produce flowers but not seeds. Thus, triploids are entirely dependent on tuber division for propagation whereas diploids can be propagated through both seeds and tubers. Other than seed production, there ar ...

Apios Priceana
''Apios priceana'' is a rare species of flowering plant in the legume family known by the common names Price's potato-bean, Price's groundnut, and traveler's delight. It is a climbing yellow-green vine growing from a stout, potato-like tuber. The plant is native to the Southeastern United States. Description The vines may be up to long. It has a large underground tuber, distinguishing it from other ''Apios'' species. The leaves are alternately arranged on the stem, about long, and comprising seven leaflets. The fragrant pale pink or greenish-yellow pea-like flowers bloom in the summer. The fruit is a long slender pod about long. Distribution and habitat The plant is native to the U.S. states of Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Tennessee. It occurred in Illinois in the past but its population there was destroyed. It is usually associated with openings in the forest canopy in mixed hardwood stands where ravine slopes grade into creek or stream bottoms. Ecology The f ...

Apios Fortunei
''Apios fortunei'', commonly known as hodo, hodoimo, groundnut, or potatobean, is a tuber-forming member of the bean family. The plant is a perennial climbing vine. The leaves are ovate or lanceolate, pinnate with 3–7 leaflets, and long. The flowers are whitish green, sometimes tinted light yellowish with a red-to-purple wing petal edge, or sulphurous green with rosy wing petals; they form pseudoracemes or terminal panicles, long. The fruit is a linear legume, 7–8 cm long and wide. Chemically, the tubers contain starch as their predominant carbohydrate, along with smaller amounts of sucrose and glucose, and almost no fructose. The species is native to Eastern China and Japan. In the wild, it is often found near brooks. It is one of three species in the genus known to produce edible tubers, although it has generally been considered an emergency food source as well as a medicinal plant. The flowers are showy and have ornamental Ornamental may refer to: *Ornamental ...

Fabaceae
Fabaceae () or Leguminosae,International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants.

Faboideae
The Faboideae are a subfamily of the flowering plant family Fabaceae or Leguminosae. An acceptable alternative name for the subfamily is Papilionoideae, or Papilionaceae when this group of plants is treated as a family. This subfamily is widely distributed, and members are adapted to a wide variety of environments. Faboideae may be trees, shrubs, or herbaceous plants. Members include the pea, the sweet pea, the laburnum, and other legumes. The pea-shaped flowers are characteristic of the Faboideae subfamily and root nodulation is very common. Genera The type genus, ''Faba'', is a synonym of ''Vicia'', and is listed here as ''Vicia''. *'' Abrus'' *'' Acmispon'' *'' Acosmium'' *'' Adenocarpus'' *'' Adenodolichos'' *'' Adesmia'' *'' Aenictophyton'' *'' Aeschynomene'' *'' Afgekia'' *'' Aganope'' *'' Airyantha'' *'' Aldina'' *'' Alexa'' *'' Alhagi'' *'' Alistilus'' *'' Almaleea'' *'' Alysicarpus'' *'' Amburana'' *'' Amicia'' *'' Ammodendron'' *'' Ammopiptanthus'' *'' Ammot ...

Phaseoleae
The plant tribe (biology), tribe Phaseoleae is one of the subdivisions of the legume subfamily Faboideae, in the unranked Non-protein amino acid-accumulating clade, NPAAA clade. This group includes many of the beans cultivated for human and animal food, most importantly from the Genus, genera ''Glycine (plant), Glycine'', ''Phaseolus'', and ''Vigna''. Taxonomy Although the tribe as defined in the late 20th century does not appear to be monophyletic, there does seem to be a monophyletic group which roughly corresponds to the tribe Phaseoleae (with some changes). The earlier concept of Phaseoleae is Paraphyly, paraphyletic relative to the tribes Abreae and Psoraleeae, plus most of Millettieae and parts of Desmodieae. The following subtribes and genera are recognized by the USDA: [follow tribe links and genera lists for the accepted genera in each tribe] ;Cajaninae * ''Adenodolichos'' Harms * ''Bolusafra'' Kuntze * ''Cajanus'' Adans. * ''Carrissoa'' Baker f. * ''Chrysoscias'' E. ...
