Rhamphospermum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae. [1] It was resurrected in 2021, in a "long overdue" taxonomic revision of the Brassicaceae. [2]
The following species are accepted: [1]
Arabidopsis (rockcress) is a genus in the family Brassicaceae. They are small flowering plants related to cabbage and mustard. This genus is of great interest since it contains thale cress, one of the model organisms used for studying plant biology and the first plant to have its entire genome sequenced. Changes in thale cress are easily observed, making it a very useful model.
Nasturtium is a genus of a small number of plant species in the family Brassicaceae commonly known as watercress or yellowcress. The best known species are the edible Nasturtium officinale and Nasturtium microphyllum. Nasturtium was previously synonymised with Rorippa, but molecular evidence supports its maintenance as a distinct genus more closely related to Cardamine than to Rorippasensu stricto.
Cardamine is a large genus of flowering plants in the mustard family, Brassicaceae, known as bittercresses and toothworts. It contains more than 200 species of annuals and perennials. Species in this genus can be found in diverse habitats worldwide, except the Antarctic. The name Cardamine is derived from the Greek kardaminē, water cress, from kardamon, pepper grass.
Rhamphospermum nigrum, black mustard, is an annual plant cultivated for its dark-brown-to-black seeds, which are commonly used as a spice. It is native to cooler regions of North Africa, temperate regions of Europe, and parts of Asia.
Isatis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, native to the Mediterranean region east to central Asia. Its genus name, Isatis, derives from the ancient Greek word for the plant, ἰσάτις. The genus includes woad. Due to their extremely variable morphology, the Asian species in particular are difficult to determine; the only reliable diagnostic feature is the ripe fruit. They are (usually) biennial or perennial herbaceous plants, often bluish and hairless or downy hairy with the upright stem branched.
Heliophila is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae. Members of this genus are either annuals or perennials and some are popular as ornamental plants. Endemic to southern Africa, the majority of the approximately 80 species grow in South Africa, particularly the Cape Floristic Region, while a few extend into the Namib Desert.
Ihsan Ali Al-Shehbaz is an American botanist who works as adjunct professor at University of Missouri-St. Louis and Senior Curator at Missouri Botanical Garden. Al-Shehbaz's primary area of interest is Brassicaceae and The Durango Herald called him "a world expert on taxonomy of the family". A 2008 publication of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service called him "the world's authority on species in the genus Lesquerella". The author abbreviation "Al-Shehbaz" is attached to the numerous botanical taxa he has identified.
Pegaeophyton is a plant genus in the family Brassicaceae.
Parrya is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, found in the arctic and subarctic biomes of the Northern Hemisphere, and in Central Asia. The center of diversity is the Tian Shan and Pamir-Alay mountain ranges.
Weberbauera is a genus of flowering plants in the crucifer family Brassicaceae, native to the central Andes; Peru, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina.
Smelowskia, sometimes called false candytufts, is a genus of flowering plants in the crucifer family Brassicaceae, native to mountains and arctic regions of Asia and western North America. They may or may not be of Beringian origin.
Fourraea alpina is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae, and the only member of the genus Fourraea. It is native to Europe, where its range extends from Spain in the west to Croatia in the east, and from Belgium and Czechia in the north to Italy in the south.
Polypsecadium is a genus of large herbaceous species of plants in the family Brassicaceae, found growing in South America. Most of the species were formerly classified in the genus Sisymbrium.
Catolobus is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae.
Crucihimalaya is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae.
Pennellia is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae.
Mummenhoffia is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae.
Parlatoria is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae. It just contains one species, Parlatoria cakiloideaBoiss.
Rhamphospermum labasii is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae, native to Morocco. It differs from other members of its clade by its seed shape and arrangement.
Rhamphospermum pubescens is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae. It is native to the central Mediterranean; France, Italy, Sardinia, Sicily, Albania, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya, and it has been introduced to Madeira and the Canary Islands. A perennial, its chromosome count is 2n = 18.
