Chenopodiastrum is a genus of plants from the subfamily Chenopodioideae in the foxtail family(Amaranthaceae)described in 2012. The six species occur in Eurasia , Africa and North America .

description

Chenopodiastrum species are annual herbaceous plants with no aromatic fragrance. Young plants have bladder hairs, which later collapse completely and are shed, so that the plants bald. The stems grow upright and are branched.

The alternate leaves are divided into a petiole and a leaf blade. The thick leaf blades can be triangular, egg-shaped, or rhombic-egg-shaped to lanceolate. The leaf margin is irregularly serrated, lobed or pinnate with narrow serrated lobes.

The flowers are located in small, tightly knotted partial inflorescences, which are arranged in pseudo-eared or racemose inflorescences . These are in the leaf axils or at the end. The hermaphrodite or all-female flowers have five connected at the base bloom with a strong, visible from inside midrib and a sharp keel on top. A circle of five stamens is present in hermaphrodite flowers . The carpels are fused into an upper ovary with two scars.

At the time of fruiting, the flower cover can enclose or spread the fruit. The membranous pericarp adheres firmly to the seed coat. The horizontally oriented seed is lenticular, with a sharp or blunt edge. The black seed coat is often clearly pitted or wrinkled, rarely almost smooth.

Systematics and distribution

The genus chenopodiastrum was 2012 by Suzy Fuentes-Bazan , Pertti Uotila and Thomas Borsch (in A novel phylogeny-based generic classification for Chenopodium sensu lato, and a tribal rearrangement of chenopodioideae (Chenopodiaceae). In Willdenowia 42, p 14) newly described . In this way, several species previously assigned to Chenopodium were separated which, according to molecular genetic studies, do not belong to this genus in the narrower sense.

Chenopodiastrum was described by Fuentes et al. like Chenopodium grouped in the Atripliceae tribe and belongs to the subfamily Chenopodioideae within the family of Amaranthaceae s. l.

The genus Chenopodiastrum is common in Europe , Asia , Africa and North America .

According to Fuentes-Bazan (2012) and Mosyakin (2013), the genus comprises six species in two sections:

  • Section Chenopodiastrum sect. Chenopodiastrum ( Synonym : Chenopodium subsect. Undata Aellen & Iljin ex Mosyakin & Clemants ):
  • Section Chenopodiastrum sect. Grossefoveata ( Mosyakin ) Mosyakin (Syn .: Chenopodium sect. Grossefoveata Mosyakin , Chenopodium [unranked] Hybrida Standl. , Chenopodium sect. Chenopodia C.A.Mey. Ser. Grossefoveata Aellen & Iljin , Chenopodium sect. Chenopodium subsect. Grossefoveata Aellen )
