List of monocotyledons of Montana Last updated March 24, 2024
Broadleaf cattail Monocotyledon species found in Montana number at least 615. [1] The Montana Natural Heritage Program has identified a number of monocot species as Species of Concern . [2]
Monocotyledons are one of two major groups of flowering plants (or angiosperms) that are traditionally recognized, the other being dicotyledons , or dicots. Monocot seedlings typically have one cotyledon (seed -leaf), in contrast to the two cotyledons typical of dicots. Monocots have been recognized at various taxonomic ranks, and under various names (see below). The APG II system recognises a clade called "monocots" but does not assign it to a taxonomic rank. There are between 50,000 and 60,000 species within this group; according to IUCN there are 59,300 species. The largest family in this group (and in the flowering plants as a whole) by number of species are the orchids (family Orchidaceae ), with more than 20,000 species. [3] In agriculture the majority of the biomass produced comes from monocots. [4] The true grasses, family Poaceae (Gramineae), are the most economically important family in this group. These include all the true grains (rice , wheat , maize , etc.), the pasture grasses, sugar cane , and the bamboos . True grasses have evolved to become highly specialised for wind pollination. Grasses produce much smaller flowers, which are gathered in highly visible plumes (inflorescences ). Other economically important monocot families are the palm family (Arecaceae ), banana family (Musaceae ), ginger family (Zingiberaceae ) and the onion family Alliaceae , which includes such ubiquitously used vegetables as onions and garlic .

Related Research Articles Forage is a plant material eaten by grazing livestock. Historically, the term forage has meant only plants eaten by the animals directly as pasture, crop residue, or immature cereal crops, but it is also used more loosely to include similar plants cut for fodder and carried to the animals, especially as hay or silage.
Ornamental grasses are grasses grown as ornamental plants. Ornamental grasses are popular in many colder hardiness zones for their resilience to cold temperatures and aesthetic value throughout fall and winter seasons.
Thorpe Hay Meadow is a 6.4-hectare (16-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest west of Staines-upon-Thames in Surrey. It is owned and managed by the Surrey Wildlife Trust.
Tussock grasses or bunch grasses are a group of grass species in the family Poaceae. They usually grow as singular plants in clumps, tufts, hummocks, or bunches, rather than forming a sod or lawn, in meadows, grasslands, and prairies. As perennial plants, most species live more than one season. Tussock grasses are often found as forage in pastures and ornamental grasses in gardens.
