The plant genus burnet ( Sanguisorba ) belongs to the family of the rose family (Rosaceae). The areas are in the temperate areas of the northern hemisphere in Eurasia and North America .
description
Vegetative characteristics
Sanguisorba species grow as perennial herbaceous plants or, in the Mediterranean region, as small shrubs that reach heights of 50 to 200 cm. A woody, multi-branched rhizome serves as a storage and persistence organ. The respective species can be slightly hairy or bald. A leaf rosette is often formed at the base , the leaves are arranged alternately on the stem . The imparipinnate leaves have seven to 25 pinna leaflet . The leaflets have a serrated leaf margin. The stipules are fused with a petiole.
Generative characteristics
At the end of the elongated inflorescence shafts there are capillary to spiked inflorescences with bracts and bracts and many flowers. The small, strongly reduced flowers are mostly hermaphroditic or rarely unisexual. If the flowers are unisexual, then the species are unisexual ( monoecious ). There is a flower cup (hypanthium) and a disc. The usually four, rarely up to seven petals are red, pink, purple or white, rarely greenish. Petals are missing. There are usually four stamens present, rarely more. The stamens are mostly free, rarely partially fused together. The flowers usually contain only one carpel , rarely there are two free ones.
The dry achenes are surrounded by hardened, thorny or winged flower cups.
The basic chromosome number is x = 7.
ecology
Sanguisorba species are food plants for the caterpillars of some butterflies ( Lepidoptera ), for example the small cube-headed butterfly ( Pyrgus malvae ) and the three-point long owl ( Amphipyra tragopoginis ) (both species have been observed on the Great Wiesenknopf).
Systematics
The genus name Sanguisorba was 1753 Linnaeus in Species Plantarum , 1, p 116 first published . Synonyms for Sanguisorba L. are Poteridium Spach and Poterium L. The genus Sanguisorba belongs to the subertribus Sanguisorbinae of the tribe Sanguisorbeae in the subfamily Rosoideae within the family Rosaceae .
The botanical genus name Sanguisorba refers to the hemostatic use (especially of Sanguisorba officinalis ): Latin sanguis for blood and sorbere for sucking up.
