An updated subtribal classification of the Compositae–Anthemideae is presented based on gene- and species-tree reconstructions considering sequence variation from plastid (cpDNA ndhF, trnL-trnF) nuclear genome (nrDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, ETS; nDNA dual specificity phosphatase DSP, plus-3 domain-containing protein vernalization independence 5 complex VIP5, major facilitator superfamily Nitrate Transp...

Numerous members of the Anthemideae tribe are important as cut flowers and ornamental crops, as well as being medicinal and aromatic plants, many of which produce essential oils used in folk and modern medicine and in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industry. Essential oils generally have a broad spectrum of bioactivity, owing to the presence of several active ingredients that work through var...

The genus Anthemis L., assigned by Bremer (1994) to the tribe Anthemideae (subtribe Anthemidinae) of the Asteraceae, comprises ca. 210 species. The Anthemidinae consist of the genus Anthemis with provisional addition of the monotypic genus NanantheaDC (Bremer, 1994). Anthemis wiedemanniana Fisch. & C.A. Mey. (section Cota) is an endemic species distributed in the Mediterranean, the Middle and t...

The Asteraceae is the largest family of plants in North America and widely used as medicine by Indigenous peoples. This study investigated medicinal ethnobotany American to identify taxa that appear preferentially selected or avoided for general specific uses. Asteraceae-specific ethnobotanical reports recorded Native Ethnobotany database were compiled and, using residual binomial analyses, 14 ...
