Vegetative characteristics

Codonopsis species are predominantly creeping, prostrate or climbing, rarely erect, perennial herbaceous plants or rarely shrubs . You have tubers as a persistence concern.

The opposite or whorled leaves are with or without a petiole .

Generative characteristics

The relatively large and often pendulous, hermaphrodite flowers are radial symmetry and five-fold with a double flower envelope . Some species have a pungent, rancid odor, similar to that of cat urine. The five blue, purple, green, yellow or white petals are bell-shaped, funnel-shaped or tubular, the corolla tube being longer than the corolla teeth. There is only one circle with five free stamens . The pollen usually has seven to nine (five to ten) furrows ("colpat"). The ovary is triple. The stylus splits into three scar branches .

The triple capsule fruit is initially fleshy, later it becomes dry and hard.

The number of chromosomes is 2n = 16, but polyploids cannot be ruled out.

ecology

The Codonopsis species are mountain plants.

The pollination is done by bees ( Melittophilie ), possibly by butterflies ( Lepidopterophilie ), partly by flying ( Myiophilie ) or wasp ( Sphecophilie ).

Systematics and distribution

The genus Codonopsis was in 1824 by Nathaniel Wallich in William Roxburgh : Flora Indica; or descriptions of Indian Plants , Volume 2, page 103. Lectotype species is Codonopsis viridis Wall. Synonyms for Codonopsis Wall. are: Campanumoea Blume , Glosocomia D.Don , Glossocomia Rchb. , Leptocodon (Hook. F.) Lem.

The genus Codonopsis belongs to the bluebell family in the narrower sense ( Campanuloideae ) and is related to Campanumoea , Canarina , Cyananthus , Leptocodon and Platycodon . The genera Campanumoea and Leptocodon are very similar to Codonopsis , which is why they are sometimes incorporated into Codonopsis .

The Codonopsis species are common in Central , South and East Asia. The focus of biodiversity is in the Himalayas and southwestern China . There are 40 species in China, 24 of them only there.

The genus Codonopsis is divided into five sections in Hong 2015.
