Plantaginaceae

Sign in to save

Plantaginaceae, the plantain family or veronica family, is a large, diverse family of flowering plants in the order Lamiales that includes common flowers such as snapdragon and foxglove. It is unrelated to the banana-like fruit also called "plantain". In older classifications, Plantaginaceae was the only family of the order Plantaginales, but numerous phylogenetic studies, summarized by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, have demonstrated that this taxon should be included within Lamiales.

OverviewAI-generated

Plantaginaceae, commonly known as the Plantain Family, is a taxonomic family within the order Lamiales. It belongs to the class Magnoliopsida and the phylum Tracheophyta in the kingdom Plantae. The family’s type genus is Plantago, and it utilizes CAM photosynthesis. Its taxonomic status is accepted, with a habitat that includes freshwater environments.

Records of this family are held by institutions such as STDOM, MEL, BRIT, RSA, and SD. Specimens have been documented in Mexico, China, the Philippines, the United States, and New Zealand. The family has 5,904 associated publications and over 13 million occurrence records.

车前科（学名：Plantaginaceae），以前的分类法只包括三个属—Bougueria属， Littorella属，和车前属（Plantago），中国只有车前属。但最新的基因分类决定将原属于玄参科的一些属划入车前科，并将杉叶藻科和肾药花科并入本科。现在包括90属约1700余种。其中最大的婆婆纳属就包括450余种。中国约有19属。 本科植物主要分布在全球的温带地区，既有草本也有灌木，还有几种是水生植物。叶既有单叶也有复叶，有对生的也有螺旋式排列的；花也多样，有花瓣4的也有5-8的，一般花冠分为上下两部分唇状；果实为蒴果。 1981年的克朗奎斯特分类法将其单独分为一个单科的车前目，1998年根据基因亲缘关系分类的APG 分类法将充实后的车前科列在唇形目中。 属 Acanthorrhinum Achetaria 毛麝香属 Adenosma Albraunia Amphianthus Anarrhinum Angelonia 金鱼草属 Antirrhinum Aragoa Artanema Asarina 假马齿苋属 Bacopa Basistemon Benjaminia Bougueria Brookea Bryodes Bythophyton 水马齿属 Callitriche Campylanthus Chaenorhinum 吊鐘柳屬（英语：Cheloneae） Cheloneae Chionohebe Chionophila Cochlidiosperma Collinsia Conobea 蔓柳穿鱼属 Cymbalaria Detzneria 毛地黄属 Digitalis Dintera Dizygostemon 虻眼属 Dopatrium 幌菊属 Ellisophyllum Encopella Epixiphium Erinus Galvezia Gambelia Geochorda 球花科 Globularia 水八角属 Gratiola - Hebe 鞭打绣球属 Hemiphragma Herpestis 杉叶藻属 Hippuris Holmgrenanthe Holzneria Howelliella Hydrotriche Isoplexis Kashmiria Keckiella Kickxia Lafuentea 兔耳草属 Lagotis Leucophyllum (?) 石龙尾属 Limnophila 水茫草属 Limosella 柳穿鱼属 Linaria Littorella Lophospermum Mabrya Maurandella Maurandya Mecardonia Melosperma 小果草属 Microcarpaea Misopates Mohavea Monocardia Monopera Monttea Ne

Plantaginaceae, the plantain family or veronica family, is a large, diverse family of flowering plants in the order Lamiales that includes common flowers such as snapdragon and foxglove. It is unrelated to the banana-like fruit also called "plantain". In older classifications, Plantaginaceae was the only family of the order Plantaginales, but numerous phylogenetic studies, summarized by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, have demonstrated that this taxon should be included within Lamiales.

==Overview== The plantain family as traditionally circumscribed consisted of only three genera: Bougueria, Littorella, and Plantago. However phylogenetic research has indicated that Plantaginaceae sensu stricto (in the strict sense) were nested within Scrophulariaceae (but forming a group that did not include the type genus of that family, Scrophularia). Although Veronicaceae (1782) is the oldest family name for this group, Plantaginaceae (1789) is a conserved name under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) and thus has priority over any earlier family name for a family including Plantago. Furthermore, the ICBN does not consider family names published before 1789 to be names eligible for conservation, thus ruling out Veronicaceae. The name Antirrhinaceae has been proposed for conservation over Plantaginaceae. In the meantime, the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group has accepted the name Plantaginaceae. However, Olmstead (2003) chose to use the name Veronicaceae, a later synonym. The Plantaginaceae is additionally called the veronica family in English.
