Odontarrhena Nebrodensis
''Odontarrhena'' is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae. They were originally a separate genus and then were amalgamated into the ''Alyssum'' genus, but morphological and molecular evidence has reseparated them. Some of the genera are nickel (Ni) hyperaccumulators (a plant capable of growing in soil or water with very high concentrations of metals). Description It is similar in habit to ''Alyssum'' and has small yellow flowers, except that it has a suborbicular pouch and one seeded cells. The plants are characterised by inflorescences that are usually compound, subumbellate racemes. There is a single ovule per loculus, and the fruit valves are at most only slightly inflated. Range Its widespread native range is from temperate Eurasia to subarctic America. It is found in Europe (within Albania, Bulgaria, Corsica, Crete, Czechoslovakia, East Aegean Islands, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Romania, Sardina, Sicily, Switzerland and Yugoslavia), Eastern Europe ...

Carl Anton Von Meyer
Carl Anton von Meyer (in Russian: Карл Анто́нович фон Ме́йер, ''Karl Antonovich von Meyer'') (1 April 1795 – 24 February 1855) was a Germans, German, Russified botanist and explorer. Meyer was born in Vitebsk. He received his education at the University of Dorpat (1813–14) as a student of Karl Friedrich von Ledebour, with whom he later embarked on a scientific journey to the Crimean Peninsula, Crimea (1818). In 1826, with Ledebour and Alexander G. von Bunge, he took part in an expedition to the Altay Mountains and the Kirghiz Steppe (Kazakhstan). Plants collected on the trip formed the basis of "Flora Altaica" (four volumes issued between 1829 and 1833).JSTOR Global Plants JSTOR Global Plants] (biography) In 1835 he began work as a botanist for the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, w ...

Carl Friedrich Von Ledebour
Carl Friedrich von Ledebour (8 July 1786 in Stralsund – 4 July 1851 in Munich;NDB/ADB Deutsche Biographie also Karl Friedrich von Ledebour) was a Baltic German botanist. Between 1811 and 1836, he was professor of science in the University of Tartu, Estonia. His most important works were ''Flora Altaica'', the first flora (plants), Flora of the Altay Mountains, published in 1833, and ''Flora Rossica'', published in four volumes between 1841 and 1853, the first complete flora of the Russian Empire. New species he described for the first time in the ''Flora Altaica'' include ''Malus sieversii'' (as ''Pyrus sieversii''), the wild ancestor of the apple, and the Siberian Larch (''Larix sibirica''). The plant genera ''Ledebouria'' (in the Asparagus family, Asparagaceae), and ''Ledebouriella'' (from the family Apiaceae) ar ...

BrassiBase
BrassiBase is on online resource that documents information and research related to species within the plant family Brassicaceae. It is hosted by the University of Heidelberg. The website defines itself as "tools and biological resources for Brassicaceae character and trait studies". Researchers studying Brassicaceae species use the tools provided in BrassiBase to refine the taxonomy and evolutionary history of plants in this family and to perform phylogenetic analyses In biology, phylogenetics () is the study of the evolutionary history of life using observable characteristics of organisms (or genes), which is known as Computational phylogenetics, phylogenetic inference.
