Pueraria
''Pueraria'' is a genus of 15–20 species of legumes native to south, east, and southeast Asia and to New Guinea and northern Australia. The best known member is kudzu, also called Japanese arrowroot. The genus is named after 19th century Swiss botanist Marc Nicolas Puerari. Plants in the genus are lianas, shrubs, or climbing herbs, usually with large tuberous roots. Typical habitats include seasonally-dry tropical and subtropical forest, rain forest, forest margins, and scrub vegetation, often on limestone outcrops and in rocky areas. The genus, as traditionally circumscribed, is polyphyletic, with different species being more related to other species in the tribe Phaseoleae. Current research, reproduced below, splits the genus into five clades, one of which defines the current monophyletic genus. Species The genus ''Pueraria'' is highly polyphyletic; the below list is divided by clade following the result of A.N.Egan & B.Pan (2016). In 2015, the authors validly published t ...

Pueraria Montana
''Pueraria montana'' is a species of plant in the botanical family Fabaceae. At least three sub-species (alternatively called varieties) are known. It is closely related to other species in the genus ''Pueraria'' (''P. edulis'' and ''Pueraria phaseoloides, P. phaseoloides'') and the common name is used for all of these species and hybrid (biology), hybrids between them. The morphological differences between them are subtle, they can breed with each other, and it appears that introduced kudzu populations in the United States have ancestry from more than one of the species. Description It is a seasonal climbing plant, growing high where suitable surfaces (trees, cliffs, walls) are available, and also growing as ground cover where there are no vertical surfaces. It is a perennial plant, perennial vine with tuberous roots and rope-like, dark brown stems to long. It grows up to per year and can achieve a height of . It has markedly hairy herbaceous stems. ''Pueraria montana'' is na ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
