| Description | Die plantfamilie Asteraceae bevat ’n ryke verskeidenheid en interessante groeivorme soos eenjarige en meerjarige kruide, dwergstruike, struike, bome, slingerplante, sukkulente, waterplante, rosetplante, kussingplante, heide-agtige plante, platgroeiend, grasagtig en doringrig. Die blare vertoon ook baie variasie in vorm en ander kenmerke byvoorbeeld afwisselend, teenoorstaande, saamgepak, sittend, gesteeld, enkelvoudig, gaafrandig, getand, gelob of diep verdeeld, saamgesteld, met drie tot vyf hoofare, gereduseer of heeltemal afwesig, glad of baie harig op die boonste of onderste oppervlakke. Soms is melksap teenwoordig en sommiges is aromaties. Sommige verteenwoordigers van die familie is ekonomies belangrik; sommiges is eetbaar of word vir medisyne gebruik terwyl ander giftig is, sommiges word as veevoer benut maar ander is onkruide en die hout van sommiges is in die verlede gebruik. The plant family Asteraceae contains a wealth of different and interesting growth forms like annual or perennial herbs, dwarf shrubs, shrubs, trees, climbers, succulents, aquatic plants, rosette plants, cushion plants, ericoid, prostrate, grass-like and spinescent. The leaves also exhibit numerous different shapes and characters, e.g. alternate, opposite, fascicled, sessile, petiolate, simple, entire, dentate, lobed or pinnate, compound, with three to five main veins, reduced or absent, glabrous or densely hairy on upper or lower surface. Sometimes latex is present and some plants are aromatic. Certain members of the family are also economically important; some are edible or used as medicine while others are poisonous, some are utilised as grazing but others are weeds, and the wood of some was used in the past. | |
