Topic: Chenopodioideae


  
  tumble weed crossbreeds? - Hybridizing Forum - GardenWeb
Modern genetics-based classification schemes, such as that of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, include the family Chenopodiaceae in the Amaranthaceae as the subfamily Chenopodioideae.
It seems as if there is no longer a family Chenopodiaceae, there is now a sub-family Chenopodioideae but in terms of family Salsola would then seem to have to be in the Amaranthaceae.
The Chenopodioideae is a subfamily of the of the Amaranthaceae, formerly treated as a distinct family, Chenopodiaceae."

In both the groups, reticulate and open vasculature are found, the latter being the derived state; the open vasculature derived from 3-traced ancestry is found to be different from that derived from 1-traced ancestry.
Chenopodioideae (Cyclolobeae) and Salsoloideae (Spirolobeae), the groups identified on the basis of the cycloid/spiroid embryonic types.
They match well with the groups identified from the chloroplast DNA analysis and appear to have distinct adaptive strategies; the first with modified/accrescent bracts, and the second with modified/accrescent perianth lobes.
