, dioecious, rarely polygamous. Leaves alternate, rarely subopposite, usually petiolate
, simple
; stipules persistent
or caducous
. Catkins erect
or pendulous; each flower usually with a cupular disc or 1 or 2(or 3) nectariferous
glands
. Male flowers with 2-many stamens; filaments
filiform
, free
or united
; to connate
; anthers
2(or 4) -loculed, dehiscing longitudinally. Female flowers with 1 pistil, sessile or stipitate
; ovary superior, 1- or 2-loculed; ovules several to many, anatropous
, with a 1 integument; style 1, 2 in Chosenia; stigmas 2-4. Capsule dehiscing by 2-4(or 5) valves
; placenta and inside wall of ovary with long hairs
. Seeds 4-numerous, glabrous
; hairs and seeds simultaneously deciduous when capsule matures.
Three genera and about 620 species: mainly N hemisphere, a few in S hemisphere; three genera and 347 species (236 endemic) in China, including at least nine hybrids and at least one introduced species
.[1]
Genus Populus
Trees
; trunk
usually straight; bark
furrowed
or smooth
, often gray or tan; pith
mostly 5-angled in cross
section
. Terminal
bud terete
or angled
; bud scales several, unequal. Stipules small, deciduous; petiole
terete or laterally compressed
; leaf blade
usually ovate
to deltoid-ovate. Flowering precocious
; catkins pendulous. Flowers anemophilous
; bracts apically lobed
or laciniate
, membranous, caducous
; flowers with disc obliquely cupular. Male flower: stamens 4-many; filaments
short, free
; anthers
dull
red. Female flower: ovary 1-loculed; style 1, short or not; stigmas 2-4. Capsule 2-4(or 5) -valved. Seeds few to numerous
, small. Cotyledons elliptic
.
About 100 species: N Africa, Asia, Europe, North America; 71 species (47 endemic) in China, including at least nine hybrids.
The taxonomy of Populus in China, at species level, is at a preliminary stage. To reach an adequate understanding, it is necessary to make direct observations in natural populations of all morphological variations
between individuals, for all species and at all seasonal developmental stages. Moreover, other methods beyond morphological studies need to be applied, especially anatomic and chemotaxonomic analyses.[2]
