  Rutaceae
There are 154 genera 925 species in the Rutaceae family.
Species of the Rutaceae family are found in warm to tropical regions, and are usually shrubs or trees, with sweet-smelling parts.
Flowers of the Rutaceae family are radial symettric, and often very showy.

 Sapindales
Rutaceae + Meliaceae: tetranortriterpenes, flavones +; stigma capitate.
Rutaceae are recognisable because of their often opposite, compound and punctate leaves; their cymose inflorescences; their flowers, with the stamens often arranged in a ring, thick filaments, conspicuous disc at the base of the ovary, and expanded stigma, are quite distinctive.
Papilionidae caterpillars are notably common (ca 1/3 of the records) on Rutaceae; like the magnoliids, on which Papilionidae are also found, plants of Rutaceae have a variety of alkaloids that attract the butterflies.

In addition, a number of alkaloids, mostly found in the Rutaceae, the citrus family, are synthesized from this compound.
The largest group of anthranilate-derived alkaloids in the Rutaceae are quinoline, furoquinoline, pyranoquinoline, acridone, and 4-quinolone alkaloids.
Quinoline alkaloids are primarily known from the Rutaceae.

 Rutaceae --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Known as the citrus, or rue, family, the Rutaceae includes woody shrubs and trees (and a few herbaceous perennials) and consists of 160 genera and 1,700 species distributed throughout the world, especially in warm temperate and tropical regions.
(Chloroxylon swietenia), tree of the Rutaceae family native to Southeast Asia, India, and Sri Lanka (Ceylon), or its hard yellowish brown wood, which has a satiny lustre and is used for fine cabinetwork and farming tools.
The flowers (white or pink) and the leaves give off a strong aromatic vapour which can be ignited, hence the names gas plant and burning bush.

 Flowering Plant Families, UH Botany
The Rutaceae are herbs, shrubs, and trees with glandular punctate, commonly strongly smelling herbage comprising about 150 genera and 1,500 species that are further characterized by the common occurrence of spines and winged petioles.
The leaves are alternate or opposite, simple or palmately or pinnately compound, or sometimes heathlike or reduced to spines; stipules are absent.
This species is obdiplostemonous, meaning it has two whorls of stamens with the outer whorl opposite the petals, a condition common in this and a few other families.

Flindersia is usually classified in the family Rutaceae, subfamily Flindersioideae together with the monotypic Indian genus Chloroxylon DC.
Recent molecular analyses indicate that the traditional sub familial classification in Rutaceae is artificial (6,7); however, as yet no replacement classification has been produced.
All species of Flindersia are distinctive in the foliage (pinnate or reduced pinnate) that has copious, large oil glands, the syncarpous ovary with two to several ovules per carpel, the woody capsules that are septifragally dehiscent with boatshaped valves and the winged seeds.

 Limonoids: Pesticide to anticancer applications from secondary metabolites of the Rutaceae and Meliaceae
Abstract Limonoids are described as modified triterpenes with or derived from a precursor with a 4,4,8-trimethyl-17-furanylsteroid skeleton.
Current literature for the last two years is devoted to the identification of Rutaceae and Meliaceae species containing limonoids.
Within this order, limonoids are most often found in the family Meliaceae and less frequently in the families Rutaceae and Cneoraceae.

As a continuation on our chemical studies on plants of the Rutaceae family (7,8), the present work describes the chemical composition of the volatile compounds obtained through hydrodistillation of the leaves of these plants.
The leaves of Z. hyemale, Z. rhoifolium and Z. rugosum were collected in the town of Jaguari, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil in August 1998, and were identified by Renato Zachia.

Availability of other measures for morbidity management (such as drugs or physiotherapy or surgery) which can reduce oedema volume (along with appropriate hygiene and skin care) will be important in the alleviation of suffering and consequent improvement in psycho-social condition of these patients.
Daflon, (micronized purified flavonoid fraction of Rutaceae aurantiae) [18] has been used in clinical practice to treat a variety of lymphoedemas, such as post radical mastectomy oedema [19], chronic venous insufficiency [20], haemorrhoids [21,22], varicose ulcers [23,24], post-phlebitic syndrome, dysfunctional uterine bleeding [25] and idiopathic cyclic oedema syndrome [26].
To date, no clinical trials have been conducted to assess the suitability of this drug in the treatment of filarial lymphoedema.

This synthetic approach to systematics will not only provide useful training for students but will prove productive for me as a researcher and to advance the field of phylogenetics.
Most of my current research involves the family Rutaceae, a large tropical group containing many members of economic importance such as the citrus fruits of commerce (lemon, grapefruits, oranges, mandarins, etc.).
From this information I have been investigating the relationships of the subfamily Aurantioideae using both molecular and morphological data in a phylogenetic context.

When you go into your native plant nursery in spring, many of the plants belong to the Rutaceae family or the citrus family, giving us much of our spring colour.
All plants in the Rutaceae family are propagated from cuttings because the seed is often difficult to acquire, and to preserve the various forms available, propagation can only be done vegetatively.
Philotheca myoporoides, known to most gardeners as Eriostemon myoporoides has remarkable variation in its forms, and like many of the Rutaceae family is one of the most familiar of our native plants.
