The pome fruits produced by plants in subtribe Pyrinae of family Rosaceae, such as apples and pears, have a structure ( the core ) that clearly separates the seeds from the ovary tissue.

It was formerly considered by some authors to be separate from Rosaceae, and the family names Prunaceae and Amygdalaceae have been used.

The species are superficially similar to Geum, Potentilla and Fragaria, but are distinct in having flowers with eight petals ( rarely seven or up to ten ), instead of the five petals found in most other genera in the Rosaceae.

Fragaria () is a genus of flowering plants in the rose family, Rosaceae, commonly known as strawberries for their edible fruits.

Crabapple ( Crab Apple in Europe ) is a term used for several species of Malus in the family Rosaceae, which are characterized by small sour fruit resembling familiar table apples ( Malus domestica ).

In botany, a pome ( after the Latin word for fruit: pōmum ) is a type of fruit produced by flowering plants in the subtribe Malinae of the family Rosaceae.

Crimson Rosellas forage in trees, bushes, and on the ground for the fruit, seeds, nectar, berries, and nuts of a wide variety of plants, including members of the Myrtaceae, Asteraceae, and Rosaceae families.

Rowans are a genus ( or subgenus ) of deciduous trees in family Rosaceae that are notable for their red berries.

It grows to 2-5 m tall, with ( unusually for a species in the Rosaceae ) opposite ( not alternate ) leaves, simple ovate-acute, 3-6 cm long and 2-4 cm broad with a serrated margin.

It is also used as a genetic model plant for garden strawberry and the Rosaceae family in general, due to its:

Isozyme evidence for the naturalness of Mespilus L. ( Rosaceae, subfam.

Several economically important products come from Rosaceae, including many edible fruits ( such as apples, apricots, plums, cherries, peaches, pears, raspberries, and strawberries ), almonds, and ornamental trees and shrubs ( such as roses, meadowsweets, photinias, firethorns, rowans, and hawthorns ).

In its traditional circumscription this subfamily consisted exclusively of shrubs and small trees characterised by a pome, a type of accessory fruit that does not occur in other Rosaceae, and by a basal haploid chromosome count of 17 ( instead of 7, 8, or 9 as in the other Rosaceae ), involving approximately 28 genera with approximately 1100 species worldwide, with most species occurring in the temperate Northern Hemisphere.

Gymnosporangium is a genus of heteroecious plant-pathogenic fungi which alternately infect members of the family Cupressaceae, primarily species in the genus Juniperus ( junipers ), and members of the family Rosaceae in the subfamily Maloideae ( apples, pears, quinces, shadbush, hawthorns, rowans and their relatives ).

The specific epithet octopetala derives from the Greek octo ( eight ) and petalon ( petal ), referring to the eight petals of the flower, an unusual number in the Rosaceae, where five is the normal number.

: The generic name Dryas L. ( 1753 ) represents a genus of magnoliophytan plants ( family Rosaceae ), and at the same time Dryas Hübner, 1807 is also a lepidopteran insect genus ( family Nymphalidae ).

Amelanchier ( ), also known as shadbush, shadwood or shadblow, serviceberry or sarvisberry, wild pear, juneberry, saskatoon, sugarplum or wild-plum, and chuckley pear is a genus of about 20 species of deciduous-leaved shrubs and small trees in the Rose family ( Rosaceae ).

Malus ( or ), apple, is a genus of about 30 – 35 species of small deciduous trees or shrubs in the family Rosaceae.

* Rose family ( Rosaceae )-Cinquefoil ( Potentilla ) or Silverweed ( Potentilla anserina or Argentina anserina ), Cloudberry ( Rubus chamaemorus ), Mountain avens ( Dryas octopetala ) ( flower of the Northwest Territories ), Snow Cinquefoil ( Potentilla nivea )

The name " water dropwort " comes from the close resemblance of some of the smaller species ( which mainly grow in wet ground ) to dropwort ( Filipendula vulgaris ) ( Rosaceae ), an unrelated plant of dry grassland.

Although the common names of P. laurocerasus refer to the similarity of foliage and appearance to bay laurel ( Laurus nobilis, the true laurel, in the Lauraceae family ), the two plants are in fact unrelated, being not only in different genera but also different families ( P. laurocerasus is in the rose family, Rosaceae ).

Common host plants used are those of the Magnoliaceae and Rosaceae families, with species including tulip tree ( Liriodendron tulipifera ), wild black cherry ( Prunus serotina ), and sweet bay magnolia ( Magnolia virginiana ).

Tormentilla erecta, Potentilla tormentilla, """ Tormentil root """) is a herbaceous perennial belonging to the rose family ( Rosaceae ), also known as Septfoil < ref >

Frankia nodulates approximately two hundred species in the following orders ( families in parentheses ): Cucurbitales ( Coriariaceae and Datiscaceae ), Fagales ( Betulaceae, Casuarinaceae, and Myricaceae ), Rosales ( Rhamnaceae, Elaeagnaceae and Rosaceae ).

Cotoneaster () is a genus of woody plants in the rose family, Rosaceae, native to the Palaearctic region ( temperate Asia, Europe, north Africa ), with a strong concentration of diversity in the genus in the mountains of southwestern China and the Himalayas.

Geum urbanum, also known as wood avens, herb Bennet, colewort and St. Benedict's herb ( Latin herba benedicta ), is a perennial plant in the rose family ( Rosaceae ), which grows in shady places ( such as woodland edges and near hedgerows ) in Europe and the Middle East.

Dropwort ( Filipendula vulgaris ), also known as Fern-leaf Dropwort, is a perennial herb of the family Rosaceae closely related to Meadowsweet.

For instance, of 122 genera in the Rosaceae, only 4 genera are capable of fixing nitrogen.

The largest of these families are Rosaceae ( 90 / 2500 ) and Urticaceae ( 54 / 2600 ).

It consisted of the family Rosaceae and 23 other families that are now placed in various other orders.

Rosaceae ( the rose family ) are a medium-sized family of flowering plants, including about 2830 species in 95 genera.

Many of these are also shared with other plants, including especially other genera of the Rosaceae.

In some plant families, genera with apomixis are quite common, e. g. in Asteraceae, Poaceae, and Rosaceae.

The rowans or mountain-ashes are shrubs or small trees in genus Sorbus of family Rosaceae.

The whitebeams are members of the Rosaceae family, comprising subgenus Aria of genus Sorbus, and hybrids involving species of this subgenus and members of subgenera Sorbus, Torminaria and Chamaemespilus.

The most taxonomically diverse vascular plant families are Asteraceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae and Rosaceae.

The green eggs are laid singly on plants of the Magnoliaceae and Rosaceae families.

Aronia, the chokeberries, are two to three species of deciduous shrubs in the family Rosaceae, native to eastern North America.

In fact, the two plants are only distantly related within the Rosaceae.

Despite names such as " Christmas rose " and " Lenten rose ", hellebores are not closely related to the rose family ( Rosaceae ).

Like many other genera in Rosaceae tribe Pyreae, Toyon includes some cultivars that are susceptible to fireblight.

Cherries and most other Rosaceae pits and seeds, avocados, chocolate, and caffeine are among the foods toxic to parrots.

Rosaceae seeds contain cyanogenic glycosides, and avocados contain persin which are both toxic compounds to birds.

These small moths are leaf-miners in the caterpillar stage, feeding mainly on Fagaceae ( Tischeria and Coptotriche ), Asteraceae and Malvaceae ( Astrotischeria ), and some also on Rhamnaceae, Tiliaceae and Rosaceae.
