Gardenia vulcanica is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae native to Luzon province in the Philippines. [1]
The Rubiaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the coffee, madder, or bedstraw family. It consists of terrestrial trees, shrubs, lianas, or herbs that are recognizable by simple, opposite leaves with interpetiolar stipules and sympetalous actinomorphic flowers. The family contains about 13,500 species in about 620 genera, which makes it the fourth-largest angiosperm family. Rubiaceae has a cosmopolitan distribution; however, the largest species diversity is concentrated in the tropics and subtropics. Economically important species include Coffea, the source of coffee, Cinchona, the source of the antimalarial alkaloid quinine, some dye plants, and ornamental cultivars.
Gentianales is an order of flowering plants, included within the asterid clade of eudicots. It comprises more than 16,000 species in about 1,138 genera in 5 families. More than 80% of the species in this order belong to the family Rubiaceae.
Gardenia is a genus of flowering plants in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, native to the tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, Asia, Madagascar and Pacific Islands, and Australia.
Gardenia anapetes is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is endemic to the Fiji island of Vanua Levu. The native gardenias of Fiji possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as droplets of secreted resin. Phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of two other rare, sympatric species on Vanua Levu Island, G. candida and G. grievei.
Gardenia brighamii, commonly known as nānū, naʻu, or forest gardenia, is a species of flowering plant in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, that is endemic to Hawaii.
Gardenia candida is a species of asterid flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. This species is endemic to Fiji with populations known from dry tropical forest thickets on the Island of Vanua Levu, and from tropical forests of Viti Levu Island. Native gardenias of the Fiji Islands and elsewhere in the paleotropics possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as yellow to brown droplets of secreted resin. Focused phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of another rare, sympatric species, G. grievei.
Gardenia gordonii is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae endemic to Fiji. The native gardenias of Fiji possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as droplets of secreted resin. Phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of two other rare, sympatric species on Vanua Levu Island of the Fiji Archipelago, G. candida and G. grievei.
Gardenia grievei is a species of asterid flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. This species, among others, is endemic to Fiji with populations known from Vanua Levu and Viti Levu islands. Native gardenias of the Fiji Islands and elsewhere in the paleotropics possess a diverse array of natural products including methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes. These secondary plant substances accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as yellow to brown droplets of secreted resin. Focused phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of a sympatric species, G. candida
Gardenia mannii, the nānū, Oahu gardenia or Mann's gardenia, is a species of flowering tree in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, that is endemic to the island of Oʻahu in Hawaiʻi. It inhabits coastal mesic, mixed mesic, and wet forests at elevations of 100–730 m (330–2,400 ft) in the Koʻolau and Waiʻanae Ranges. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gardenia storckii is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is endemic to Fiji. The native gardenias of Fiji possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as droplets of secreted resin. Phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of two other rare, sympatric species on Vanua Levu Island in the Fiji archipelago, G. candida and G. grievei.
Atractocarpus chartaceus, the narrow-leaved gardenia or thin-leaved gardenia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae from eastern Australia. The habitat is the understorey of subtropical and tropical rainforest on fertile soils. The natural range of distribution is from the Richmond River, New South Wales to tropical Queensland. This plant features beautifully scented flowers.
Atractocarpus fitzalanii, the brown gardenia or yellow mangosteen, is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae found in tropical Queensland in Australia. The beautifully scented flowers and lush growth has seen this plant enter cultivation in subtropical gardens in Eastern Australia.
Atractocarpus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. Its members are commonly known as native gardenias in Australia. The genus name is derived from the Ancient Greek terms atractos "spindle", and karpos "fruit", from the spindle-shaped fruit of the type species.
Ixoroideae is a subfamily of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae and contains about 4000 species in 27 tribes.
Gardenieae is a tribe of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae and contains about 586 species in 53 genera.
