Rosoideae |
The Rosaceae or rose family is a large family of plants, with about 3,000-4,000 species in 100-120 genera. Plants are living Organisms belonging to the kingdom Plantae. The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group Magnoliopsida is the Botanical name for a class of Flowering plants By definition the class will include the family Magnoliaceae, but its For other meanings see Rosales (disambiguation. Rosales is an order of Flowering plants including nine families Antoine Laurent de Jussieu ( April 12, 1748 - September 17, 1836) was a French Botanist, notable as the first to propose The Rose subfamily Rosoideae consists of 878 species including many Shrubs perennial Herbs and fruit plants such as strawberries and The subfamily Spiraeoideae is a subfamily of Flowering plants in the order Rosales The Maloideae ( apple subfamily is a large subfamily of the rose family Rosaceae with 28 genera including approximately 1100 species worldwide with most species Prunoideae, also called Amygdaloideae, is the Flowering plant subfamily containing the genera Prunus and Prinsepia Prunoideae, also called Amygdaloideae, is the Flowering plant subfamily containing the genera Prunus and Prinsepia A rose is a perennial flowering Shrub or vine of the Genus Rosa, within the family Rosaceae, that contains over 100 species In Biological classification, family ( Latin Plants are living Organisms belonging to the kingdom Plantae. Traditionally it has been divided into four subfamilies: Rosoideae, Spiraeoideae, Maloideae, and Amygdaloideae. The Rose subfamily Rosoideae consists of 878 species including many Shrubs perennial Herbs and fruit plants such as strawberries and The subfamily Spiraeoideae is a subfamily of Flowering plants in the order Rosales The Maloideae ( apple subfamily is a large subfamily of the rose family Rosaceae with 28 genera including approximately 1100 species worldwide with most species Prunoideae, also called Amygdaloideae, is the Flowering plant subfamily containing the genera Prunus and Prinsepia These subfamilies are primarily diagnosed by the structure of the fruits, although this approach is not followed universally. Recent work has identified that the traditional four subfamilies are not all monophyletic, but the structure of the family is still awaiting complete resolution. A clade is a taxonomic group comprising a single Common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor
Identified clades include:
- Subfamily Rosoideae: Traditionally composed of those genera bearing small fruits, each of which is an achene or drupelet, and often the fleshy part of the fruit (e.

Garden strawberries are a common variety of strawberry cultivated worldwide A hypanthium is a floral structure consisting of the bases of the sepals petals and stamens fused together The circumscription is now narrowed (excluding, for example, the tribe Dryadeae), but it still remains a diverse group containing 5 or 6 tribes and 20 or more genera.

- Subfamily Maloideae (or Pomoideae): Traditionally this includes those genera (apple, cotoneaster, hawthorn, pear, quince, rowan, whitebeam, etc), whose fruits consist of five capsules (called "cores") in a fleshy endocarp, surrounded by the ripened stem tissue.
