Aurantioideae

picture info	Aurantioideae Aurantioideae (sometimes known as Citroideae) is the subfamily within the rue and citrus family (biology), family (Rutaceae) that contains the citrus. The subfamily's center of diversity is in the monsoon region of eastern Australasia, extending west through South Asia into Africa, and eastwards into Polynesia. Notable members include citrus (genus ''Citrus''), Aegle marmelos, bael (''Aegle marmelos''), limonia acidissima, curd fruit (''Limonia acidissima''), species of genus ''Murraya'' such as curry tree (''M. koenigii'') and murraya paniculata, orange jessamine (''M. paniculata''), and the small genus ''Clausena''. Description Aurantioideae are smallish trees or large shrubs, or rarely lianas. Their flowers are typically white and fragrant. Their fruit are very characteristic hesperidium, hesperidia, usually of rounded shape and colored in green, yellowish or orange hues.

	Clauseneae Clauseneae is one of the two tribes of the flowering plant family Rutaceae, subfamily Aurantioideae, the other being Citreae, which includes ''Citrus''. The tribe comprises five genera: '' Micromelum'', '' Glycosmis'', '' Clausena'', '' Murraya'', and '' Merrillia''; considered to be the more primitive genera of the orange subfamily''.'' The members can be distinguished from the Citreae tribe by their odd-pinnate leaves, with the leaflets alternately attached to the rachis. References * Wight A wight is a being or thing.

	Micromelum Minutum Fruit And Foliage ''Micromelum'' is a genus of eight species of flowering plants in the family Rutaceae. Description The genus includes evergreen and deciduous shrubs and trees. The leaves are glandular and aromatic, containing essential oils. They are alternately arranged. They are usually pinnate, divided into up to 23 leaflets, except for ''M. diversifolium'', which sometimes has undivided leaf blades. The leaflet edges are smooth or toothed. There are sometimes glandular stipules. The inflorescence is a large panicle, sometimes flat-topped like a corymb, growing from the or at the ends of branches. The flowers have five narrow petals in shades of green, white, or yellow, borne in a hairy, cup-like with five lobes or five separate sepals. The odour of the flowers has been described as "malodorous" and "foetid". There are ten stamens and one to five styles. The genus is noted for the unusual curving or twisting of the chambers in the ovary. The fruit is a berry up to long. It is yello ...

	Swinglea Glutinosa ''Swinglea'' is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Rutaceae. It only contains a single species, ''Swinglea glutinosa''. It is native to the Philippines. The genus name of ''Swinglea'' is in honour of Walter Tennyson Swingle (1871–1952), an American agricultural botanist who contributed greatly to the classification and taxonomy of citrus. The genus has one known synonym of ''Chaetospermum'' . The Latin specific epithet In Taxonomy (biology), taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin gramm ... of ''glutinosa'' is derived from ''gluten'' meaning glue. Both the genus and the species were first described and published in J. Arnold Arbor. Vol.8 on page 131 in 1927.

	Bergera ''Bergera'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rutaceae. It has been included in ''Murraya'' as ''M.'' sect. ''Bergera''. Species that may be placed in the genus are native from India through southeast Asia eastwards to China and Taiwan southwards to Malesia and New Caledonia. The curry tree, ''Bergera koenigii'', is one of the better known species. Taxonomy The genus name ''Bergera'' was first published by Johann Gerhard König in 1771. ''Bergera'' was then accepted as a separate genus for several decades after König's description, but was later united with the genus ''Murraya'', (for which ''Bergera'' had been rejected as a name,). In 1986, Paul P.-H. But and co-authors separated off some species of ''Murraya'' as ''M.'' sect. ''Bergera'' based on chemical evidence. The later creation of a separate genus for the section was further supported by evidence from pollen morphology in 2009, and molecular phylogenetic evidence in 2017.

picture info	Citrus ''Citrus'' is a genus of flowering trees and shrubs in the family Rutaceae. Plants in the genus produce citrus fruits, including important crops such as oranges, mandarins, lemons, grapefruits, pomelos, and limes. ''Citrus'' is native to South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Melanesia, and Australia. Indigenous people in these areas have used and domesticated various species since ancient times. Its cultivation first spread into Micronesia and Polynesia through the Austronesian expansion (–1500 BCE). Later, it was spread to the Middle East and the Mediterranean () via the incense trade route, and from Europe to the Americas. Renowned for their highly fragrant aromas and complex flavor, citrus are among the most popular fruits in cultivation. With a propensity to hybridize between species, making their taxonomy complicated, there are numerous varieties encompassing a wide range of appearance and fruit flavors.
