Constantine Samuel Rafinesque-Schmaltz
Constantine Samuel Rafinesque-Schmaltz (; 22 October 178318 September 1840) was a French early 19th-century polymath born near Constantinople in the Ottoman Empire and self-educated in France. He traveled as a young man in the United States, ultimately settling in Ohio in 1815, where he made notable contributions to botany, zoology, and the study of Mound Builders, prehistoric earthworks in North America. He also contributed to the study of ancient Mesoamerican languages, Mesoamerican linguistics, in addition to work he had already completed in Europe. Rafinesque was an eccentric and erratic genius. He was an autodidact, who excelled in various fields of knowledge, as a zoologist, botanist, writer and Polyglot (person), polyglot. He wrote prolifically on such diverse topics as anthropology, biology, geology, and linguistics, but was honored in none of these fields during his lifetime. Indeed, he was an outcast in the American scientific community and his submissions were automati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Styphnolobium
''Styphnolobium'' is a genus of flowering plants in the pea family, Fabaceae. It includes nine species of small trees and shrubs native to China and to the Americas, from the southern United States to Colombia. It belongs to subfamily Faboideae, and was formerly included within a broader interpretation of the genus '' Sophora''. It was recently assigned to the unranked, monophyletic ''Cladrastis'' clade. They differ from the genus '' Calia'' (mescalbeans) in having deciduous leaves and flowers in axillary, not terminal, racemes. The leaves are pinnate, with 9–21 leaflets, and the flowers in pendulous racemes similar to those of the black locust. Necklacepod is a common name for plants in this genus. Etymology From Greek ''styphno-'', ''stryphno-'' "sour, astringent" and ''lobion'' "pod", because of the fresh pods' pulp taste. Species ''Styphnolobium'' comprises the following species: Section ''Oresbios'' * '' Styphnolobium affine'' (Torr. & A. Gray) Walp., the coralbean or ...

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 ...

Systematic Botany
''Systematic Botany'' is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering the study of systematic botany. It is published quarterly by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists. According to the ''Journal Citation Reports'', the journal has a 2010 impact factor of 1.897. ''Systematic Botany'' was established in spring 1976 under founding editor-in-chief William Louis Culberson (Duke University). The current editor-in-chief is James F. Smith (Boise State University). The American Society of Plant Taxonomists also publishes the peer-reviewed taxonomic monograph series, ''Systematic Botany Monographs'' since 1980. Abstracting and indexing ''Systematic Botany'' is abstracted and indexed in Agricola, Agris, BioOne, PubMed, Scirus, and Science Citation Index Expanded The Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) is a citation index owned by Clarivate and previously by Thomson Reuters.

American Journal Of Botany
The ''American Journal of Botany'' is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal which covers all aspects of plant biology. It has been published by the Botanical Society of America since 1914. The journal has an impact factor of 3.038, as of 2019. access is available through the publisher John Wiley & Sons ( Wiley). From 1951 to 1953, Oswald Tippo served as its editor; the current editor is Pamela Diggle. History In the early 20th century, the field of botany was rapidly expanding, but the publications in which botanists could publish remained limited and heavily backlogged. By 1905, it was estimated that 250,000 contributions were generated in 8 or 9 languages. At the 1911 annual meeting of the society in Washington D.C., it was noted that at least 300 pages of American botanical contributions were sent abroad for publication, with a backlog resulting in a one-year delay in publication. On 31 December 1907, the Botanical Society of America met in Chicago and formally recom ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
South African Journal Of Botany
The ''South African Journal of Botany'' (Afrikaans title: ''Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir plantkunde'') is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of botany as related to Southern Africa. It is published by Elsevier on behalf of the South African Association of Botanists, of which it is an official journal.

Cladrastis Clade
The ''Cladrastis'' clade is a monophyletic clade of the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae (or Papilionaceae) that is found in eastern Asia and southern North America. It is consistently resolved in molecular phylogenies and is sister to the Meso-Papilionoideae. Evidence for the existence of this clade was first proposed based on morphological (floral), cytological, and biochemical evidence. It is predicted to have diverged from the other legume lineages 47.4±2.6 million years ago (in the Eocene). Description This clade is composed of three genera: '' Cladrastis'', the monotypic '' Pickeringia'', and ''Styphnolobium''. Fossils of species of ''Cladrastis'' and ''Styphnolobium'' have been discovered. The name of this clade is informal and is not assumed to have any particular taxonomic rank like the names authorized by the ICBN The ''International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants'' (ICN or ICNafp) is the set of rules and recommendations dealing with the fo ...

Clade
In biology, a clade (), also known as a Monophyly, monophyletic group or natural group, is a group of organisms that is composed of a common ancestor and all of its descendants. Clades are the fundamental unit of cladistics, a modern approach to taxonomy adopted by most biological fields. The common ancestor may be an individual, a population, or a species (extinct or Extant taxon, extant). Clades are nested, one in another, as each branch in turn splits into smaller branches. These splits reflect evolutionary history as populations diverged and evolved independently. Clades are termed ''monophyletic'' (Greek: "one clan") groups. Over the last few decades, the cladistic approach has revolutionized biological classification and revealed surprising evolutionary relationships among organisms. Increasingly, taxonomists try to avoid naming Taxon, taxa that are not clades; that is, taxa that are not Monophyly, monophyletic. Some of the relationships between organisms that the molecul ...
