Juss., nom. Vitis vinifera ( Common Grape Vine) is a species of Vitis, native to the Mediterranean region, central Europe, and 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 Gilbert Thomas Burnett ( April 15, 1800 - July 27, 1835) was a British Botanist. Antoine Laurent de Jussieu ( April 12, 1748 - September 17, 1836) was a French Botanist, notable as the first to propose cons.
Genera

Vitaceae are a family of dicotyledonous flowering plants including the grape and Virginia creeper. A genus (plural genera from Γένος Latin genus "descent family type gender" is a low-level Taxonomic Ampelopsis is a Genus of climbing Shrubs in the grape family Vitaceae. Ampelopsis is a Genus of climbing Shrubs in the grape family Vitaceae. The botanical genus Cayratia comprises approximately 45 species some of which have utility value to people Cissus is a Genus of approximately 350 Species Cyphostemma is a Flowering plant Genus belonging to the Family Vitaceae. Leea is a genus of plants that are distributed throughout Northern and eastern Australia, New Guinea, South and Southeast Asia and parts of Parthenocissus ( creepers) is a Genus of climbing plants from the grape family Vitaceae. Tetrastigma is a Genus of plants in the grape family Vitaceae. Vitis is a genus of about 60 species of vining plants in the Flowering plant family Vitaceae. For the Tokyo University supercomputer see Gravity Pipe. GRAPE, or GRA phics P rogramming E nvironment is Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group For the Tokyo University supercomputer see Gravity Pipe. GRAPE, or GRA phics P rogramming E nvironment is Virginia Creeper redirects here For the trail see Virginia Creeper Trail. The family name is derived from the genus Vitis. Vitis is a genus of about 60 species of vining plants in the Flowering plant family Vitaceae. The name sometimes appears as Vitidaceae, but Vitaceae is a conserved name and therefore has priority over both Vitidaceae and another name sometimes found in the older literature, Ampelidaceae.

The relationships of Vitaceae are unclear and the family does not appear to have any close relatives. In the Cronquist system, the family was placed near the family Rhamnaceae in order Rhamnales. A system of plant taxonomy, the Cronquist system is a scheme for the classification of flowering plants (or Angiosperms) Rhamnaceae, the Buckthorn family is a large family of flowering Plants mostly trees Shrubs and some vines The Rhamnales are an order of Dicotyledon Plants In the Cronquist system, the following families were placed here Family Elaeagnaceae The family was placed in the Rosid clade, but not classified in an order, by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG). In the APG II system for the classification of the Angiosperms the name rosids refers to a Clade, meaning a Monophyletic group of plants The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, or APG, refers to two international groups of systematic botanists who came together to try to establish a consensus view of the The Angiosperm Phylogeny Web places Vitaceae in its own order, Vitales. Recent phylogenetic analyses support Vitaceae as the sister-group to all other rosids (Jansen et al. 2006).

Most Vitis species have 38 chromosomes (n=19), but 40 (n=20) in subgenus Muscadinia, while Ampelocissus, Parthenocissus, and Ampelopsis also have 40 chromosomes (n=20) and Cissus has 24 chromosomes (n=12). Parthenocissus ( creepers) is a Genus of climbing plants from the grape family Vitaceae. Ampelopsis is a Genus of climbing Shrubs in the grape family Vitaceae. Cissus is a Genus of approximately 350 Species


The family is economically important as grapes (Vitis species) are an important fruit crop and, when fermented, produce wine. For the Tokyo University supercomputer see Gravity Pipe.

Species of the genus Tetrastigma serve as hosts to parasitic plants in the family Rafflesiaceae. Tetrastigma is a Genus of plants in the grape family Vitaceae. A parasitic plant is one that derives some or all of its sustenance from another plant Rafflesiaceae is a family of parasitic plants found in east and southeast Asia including Rafflesia arnoldii, the plant with the largest flower of all plants

Leea, sometimes classified in its own family, Leeaceae, is included in Vitaceae by the APG and the Angiosperm Phylogeny Web. Leea is a genus of plants that are distributed throughout Northern and eastern Australia, New Guinea, South and Southeast Asia and parts of Leea is a genus of plants that are distributed throughout Northern and eastern Australia, New Guinea, South and Southeast Asia and parts of
