Flaveria
Genus of flowering plants
Flaveria Asteraceae .[ 3] [ 4] yellowtops . Some are annual or perennial herbs and some are shrubs. They bear yellow flowers in heads , with zero, one, or two ray florets in each head.[ 5] Americas , Asia , Africa , and Australia.[ 5] [ 6]
While some members of this genus use the more common C3 carbon fixation pathway, others are C4 plants , and some are intermediate. With closely related species exhibiting different forms of metabolism, Flaveria has been a model genus for studies on the evolution of photosynthesis.[ 7] [ 8] [ 9] [ 10] Flaveria species to date. Molecular phylogenetic studies have clarified many of the evolutionary relationships between Flaveria species.[ 7] [ 9]
