Aloe vera is a species of succulent plant that probably originated in northern Africa.

It has also been suggested that biofuels could be obtained from Aloe vera seeds.

Aloe vera may be effective in treatment of wounds.

Gels from Aloe vera have been compared to those derived from other aloe species and with other plants belonging to the family Asphodelaceae.

Aloe vera extracts might have antibacterial and antifungal activities, which possibly could help treat minor skin infections, such as boils and benign skin cysts and may inhibit growth of fungi causing tinea.

Although anecdotally useful, Aloe vera has not been proven to offer protection for humans from sunburn, suntan, or other damage from the sun.

However, the plant polysaccharides present in Aloe vera, although offering no direct protection against sunburn, may offer skin protection by specifically targeting pathways activated by UV radiation that can lead to non-melanoma skin cancer.

Ingestion of Aloe vera is associated with diarrhea, electrolyte imbalance, kidney dysfunction, and conventional drug interactions ; episodes of contact dermatitis, erythema, and phototoxicity have been reported from topical applications.

Likewise, where competition for resources is more competitive — both in the number of species and the height of surrounding plants — there are times when it is to the advantage of a plant to develop into arborescent, dendroid “ trees .” This development is because these particular Pachypodium must compete with other plants for resources in a dry deciduous forest, composed of, perhaps, arborescent Aloe, members of the Didiereaceae genera -- Alluaudia, Alluaudiopsis, Decaryia, and Didierea ; all endemic to Madagascar -- and Uncarina species, for instance.

If the British immediately established positions on Conical Hill and Aloe Knoll ( the two unoccupied kopjes on the kop itself ) they could bring their artillery to bear on Tabanyama, threatening the key Boer positions there.

Many species of Aloe are used medicinally and in cosmetics.

Other genera are used as ornamental plants, both succulents such as Aloe, Haworthia and Gasteria and perennials such as Kniphofia, Asphodelus and Bulbine.

They are present in senna, rhubarb and Aloe species.

The genera Aloe, Asphodelus and Kniphofia are perhaps the best known genera from their use in horticulture as ornamental plants.

Alooidae leaves are arranged in strongly tufted terminal ( in arborescent species, as in Aloe barberae ) or basal rosettes and are arranged in distinct ranks.

The aloin cells are said to produce the characteristic thick exudate that is produced when the succulent leaf of Aloe is severed.

Two species of Aloe are grown for their leaf sap, which has medicinal and cosmetic uses.

In others, the leaves are more compact, forming a rosette ( e. g. Echeveria, Aloe ).

The plants that are often associated with its habitat are: Adenia firingalavensis Harms ( Passifloraceae ); Aloe sp.

Other vegetative types, often site indictors of micro-environments, are associated with P. baronii in habitats, such as Pachypodium sofiense Apocynaceae, Uncarina sp., ( Pedialaceae ) Aloe bulbillifera ( Asphodelaceae ), Euphorbia milii ( Euphorbaceae ), Kalanchoe gastonis-bonieri ( Crassulaceae ), and Urera sp.

Related genera are Aloe, Gasteria and Astroloba and intergeneric hybrids are known.
