Taxonomic review of the species of Parkinsonia (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae) from the Americas

Abstract: The genus Parkinsonia has a pantropical distribution with 12 species globally, occurring mainly in arid and semi-arid climate environments. Many taxonomic studies have considered Parkinsonia as a distinct genus of Cercidium, but phylogenetic analyses do not support this distinction because, when together, they form a well-supported monophyletic group. The aim of this study was to review the taxonomy of Parkinsonia species from the Americas. We examined 400 specimens deposited in herbaria, original diagnoses, a… Show more

“…This suggests that Parkinsonia spp. are a cost-effective option for the development of new pharmaceutical formulations, due to their wide distribution throughout the American continent, their accelerated growth, as well as the large variety of bioactive compounds associated with several biological activities found in representatives of this genus (Sánchez-Escalante, 2007a;Al-Youssef and Hassan, 2015;Abdelaziz et al, 2020;Romão and Mansano, 2021).…”
