Eriosema
''Eriosema'' is a genus of legume in the family Fabaceae. Accepted species number over 150. The genus is widespread in tropics. Description Species of ''Eriosema'' are mostly herbs or shrublets. Leaves are pinnately 3-foliolate, rarely reduced to a single leaflet. Inflorescences are 1–2-flowered or pedunculate racemes in the leaf axils, yellow to orange, calyx is campanulate, consists of five similar lobes. Pods are short and flattened with two seeds.

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'' *''Ammothamnus'' *''Am ...

Phaseoleae
The plant tribe Phaseoleae is one of the subdivisions of the legume subfamily Faboideae, in the unranked NPAAA clade. This group includes many of the beans cultivated for human and animal food, most importantly from the genera ''Glycine'', ''Phaseolus'', and ''Vigna''. Taxonomy Although the tribe as defined in the late 20th century does not appear to be monophyletic, there does seem to be a monophyletic group which roughly corresponds to the tribe Phaseoleae (with some changes). The earlier concept of Phaseoleae is paraphyletic relative to the tribes Abreae and Psoraleeae, plus most of Millettieae and parts of Desmodieae. The following subtribes and genera are recognized by the USDA: ollow tribe links and genera lists for the accepted genera in each tribe/ref> ;Cajaninae * '' Adenodolichos'' Harms * ''Bolusafra'' Kuntze * ''Cajanus'' Adans. * ''Carrissoa'' Baker f. * ''Chrysoscias'' E.

Pod (fruit)
This page provides a glossary of plant morphology. Botanists and other biologists who study plant morphology use a number of different terms to classify and identify plant organs and parts that can be observed using no more than a handheld magnifying lens. This page provides help in understanding the numerous other pages describing plants by their various taxa. The accompanying page—Plant morphology—provides an overview of the science of the external form of plants. There is also an alphabetical list: Glossary of botanical terms. In contrast, this page deals with botanical terms in a systematic manner, with some illustrations, and organized by plant anatomy and function in plant physiology. This glossary primarily includes terms that deal with vascular plants (ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms), particularly flowering plants (angiosperms). Non-vascular plants (bryophytes), with their different evolutionary background, tend to have separate terminology. Although plant morpholo ...

Hermann Harms
Hermann August Theodor Harms (16 July 1870 – 27 November 1942) was a German taxonomist and botanist. Harms was born in Berlin. He worked as a botanist at the Botanical Museum in Berlin. He was a member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. He died in Berlin, aged 52. He was longtime editor of Adolf Engler's "'' Das Pflanzenreich''", and was the author of several chapters on various plant families in Engler and Prantl's "''Die Natürlichen Pflanzenfamilien''", including the chapters on Bromeliaceae (1930) and Nepenthaceae (1936). In the latter he revised the pitcher plant genus ''Nepenthes'', dividing it into three subgenera: ''Anurosperma'', ''Eunepenthes'' and ''Mesonepenthes'' (see Taxonomy of ''Nepenthes''). Furthermore, he was interested in the genus ''Passiflora''. The plant genera ''Harmsia'' (Schum.), '' Harmsiella'' ( Briq.), ''Harmsiodoxa'' (in the Brassicaceae family) and ''Harmsiopanax'' (in the ''Araliaceae'' family) commemorate his name. Publication ...
