Anacardiaceae Genera
The Anacardiaceae, commonly known as the cashew family or sumac family, are a Family (biology), family of flowering plants, including about 83 genera with about 860 known species. Members of the Anacardiaceae bear fruits that are drupes and in some cases produce urushiol, an Irritation, irritant. The Anacardiaceae include numerous genera, several of which are economically important, notably cashew (in the type genus ''Anacardium''), mango, Toxicodendron vernicifluum, Chinese lacquer tree, Spondias mombin, yellow mombin, Peruvian pepper, poison ivy, poison oak, sumac, Cotinus, smoke tree, Sclerocarya birrea, marula and Amphipterygium adstringens, cuachalalate. The genus ''Pistacia'' (which includes the pistachio and Pistacia lentiscus, mastic tree) is now included, but was previously placed in its own family, the Pistaciaceae. The cashew family is more abundant in warm or tropical regions with only a few species living in the temperate zones. Mostly native to tropical Americas, ...

Fossil Flora Of Kızılcahamam District
This fossil flora in Turkey stems from at least six Pliocene deposits in Güvem and Beşkonak villages, north of Ankara, north of Kızılcahamam and south of the Black Sea coast. They are to above sea level, extending north-south and east-west. Between six and seven million years ago, a fresh water lake existed there in a forested area with mostly broad leaved deciduous tree species, dominated by sequoia and oak. The Turkish botany Professor Baki Kasaplıgil (1918-1992) from Çankırı who worked at the Biology Department, Mills College, Oakland, California from 1956 to 1992, made fossil collecting trips to the area around Kızılcahamam - Çerkeş road in 1964 and 1968. In the 1964 trip he collected fossil leaves of ''Glyptostrobus'', '' Sequoia'', ''Zelkova'', ''Fagus'', ''Carpinus'', ''Ulmus'', ''Quercus'', ''Tilia'' and '' Acer''. In the 1968 trip, he collected 400 plant parts such as leaves, seeds, fruits, twigs and branches. He also collected 50 fossils of frog and ...

Myracrodruon Urundeuva
''Myracrodruon urundeuva'' (Portuguese common names: aroeira-do-sertão, aroeira preta, urundeúva, urindeúva, arindeúva) is a timber tree, which is often used for beekeeping. This plant is native to Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay, and it is typical of Caatinga, Cerrado, and Pantanal vegetation in Brazil. Control It is reported that the plant is very susceptible to particular herbicides such as glyphosate Glyphosate (IUPAC name: ''N''-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide and crop desiccant. It is an organophosphorus compound, specifically a phosphonate, which acts by EPSP inhibitor, inhibiting the plant enzyme 5-en ..., suggesting a restricted and proper weed management for the species.
