Amorpheae
The tribe Amorpheae is an early-branching clade within the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae or Papilionaceae. It is found from Mexico to Argentina. It was recently found to belong in a larger clade known informally as the dalbergioids ''sensu lato''. This tribe is consistently resolved as monophyletic in molecular phylogenetic analyses. It is estimated to have arisen 36.9 ± 3.0 million years ago (in the Eocene). A node-based definition for Amorpheae is: "the MRCA of ''Psorothamnus arborescens'' and '' Eysenhardtia orthocarpa''." The tribe exhibits the following morphological synapomorphies: "epidermal glands throughout the plant body; dry, indehiscent fruits that are single-seeded; and terminal inflorescences." Subclades and genera Amorphoids The amorphoids can be distinguished from the daleoids on the basis of their non-papilionaceous flowers. * ''Amorpha'' L. * ''Apoplanesia'' C.

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.

Dalbergioids
The dalbergioids are an early-branching monophyletic clade of the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae or Papilionaceae. They are pantropical, particularly being found in the neotropics and sub-Saharan Africa. This clade is consistently resolved as monophyletic in molecular phylogenetic analyses. It is estimated to have arisen 55.3 ± 0.5 million years ago (in the Eocene). A node-based definition for the dalbergioids is: "The least inclusive crown clade that contains ''Amorpha fruticosa'' L. 1753 and ''Dalbergia sissoo'' Roxb. ex DC. 1825." Indehiscent pods may be a morphological synapomorphy In phylogenetics, an apomorphy (or derived trait) is a novel character or character state that has evolved from its ancestral form (or plesiomorphy).

Dalea
''Dalea'' is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. Members of the genus are commonly known as prairie clover or indigo bush. Its name honors English apothecary Samuel Dale (1659–1739). They are native to the Western hemisphere, where they are distributed from Canada to Argentina. Nearly half of the known species are endemic to Mexico. Two species of ''Dalea'' (''Dalea ornata'' and ''Dalea searlsiae'') have been considered for rangeland restoration. Species ''Dalea'' comprises the following species: * ''Dalea abietifolia'' (Rydb.) Bullock * ''Dalea acracarpica'' Barneby * ''Dalea adenopoda'' (Rydb.)

Psorothamnus
''Psorothamnus'' is a genus of plants in the legume family. These are shrubs and small trees. Many are known by the general common name indigo bush. Some are referred to as daleas, as this genus was once included in genus ''Dalea''. These are generally thorny, thickly branched, strongly scented bushes. Most species bear lupinlike raceme inflorescences of bright purple legume flowers and gland-rich pods. ''Psorothamnus'' species are native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. The genus is paraphyletic and it has been proposed that the genus ''Psorodendron'' be reinstated to accommodate sections ''Xylodalea'', ''Capnodendron'', and ''Winnemucca''. Species ''Psorothamnus'' comprises the following species: * ''Psorothamnus arborescens'' (A. Gray) Barneby—Mojave indigo bush ** var. ''arborescens'' (A. Gray) Barneby ** var.

Marina (plant)
''Marina'' is a genus of legume A legume () is a plant in the family Fabaceae (or Leguminosae), or the fruit or seed of such a plant. When used as a dry grain, the seed is also called a pulse. Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for human consumption, for livestock f ...s. They are known as the ''false prairie clovers''. Unlike the related prairie clovers (genus ''Dalea''), which bear two ovules per fruit (with typically only one fully maturing to become a viable seed), false prairie clovers bear only one ovule per fruit. Species ''Marina'' comprises the following species: * '' Marina alamosana'' (Rydb.) Barneby * '' Marina brevis'' León-de la Luz * '' Marina calycosa'' (A.

Parryella
''Parryella filifolia'', the common dunebroom, is a species of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae. It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae. It is the only member of the genus ''Parryella''. It is native to Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. Its ashes were sometimes used by members of the Hopi tribe in the maize nixtamalization process and helped to retain the blue color of cornmeal used to make ''piki'' bread. The beans were also used as a remedy for toothaches. The genus name of ''Parryella'' is in honour of Charles Christopher Parry (1823–1890), who was a British-American botanist and mountaineer. The genus and the species were circumscribed by John Torrey and Asa Gray Asa Gray (November 18, 1810 – January 30, 1888) is considered the most important American botanist of the 19th century.

Most Recent Common Ancestor
In biology and genetic genealogy, the most recent common ancestor (MRCA), also known as the last common ancestor (LCA) or concestor, of a set of organisms is the most recent individual from which all the organisms of the set are descended. The term is also used in reference to the ancestry of groups of genes (haplotypes) rather than organisms. The MRCA of a set of individuals can sometimes be determined by referring to an established pedigree. However, in general, it is impossible to identify the exact MRCA of a large set of individuals, but an estimate of the time at which the MRCA lived can often be given. Such ''time to most recent common ancestor'' (''TMRCA'') estimates can be given based on DNA test results and established mutation rates as practiced in genetic genealogy, or by reference to a non-genetic, mathematical model or computer simulation. In organisms using sexual reproduction, the ''matrilineal MRCA'' and ''patrilineal MRCA'' are the MRCAs of a given population ...

Amorpha
''Amorpha'' is a genus of plants in the pea family, Fabaceae. All the species are native to North America, from southern Canada, most of the United States (US), and northern Mexico. They are commonly known as false indigo. The name ''Amorpha'' means "deformed" or "without form" in Greek and was given because flowers of this genus only have one petal, unlike the usual "pea-shaped" flowers of the Faboideae subfamily. ''Amorpha'' is missing the wing and keel petals. The desert false indigo or indigo bush (''Amorpha fruticosa''), is a shrub that grows from 3 m to 5 m tall. The species is considered a rare species in the US state of West Virginia and in the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario, but is considered an invasive plant in some areas of the northeastern and northwestern United States and in southeastern Canada, beyond its native range, and has also been introduced into Europe. The lead plant (''Amorpha canescens''), a bushy shrub, is an important North Ame ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
