dbo:abstract
- Goldenrod is a common name for many species of flowering plants in the sunflower family, Asteraceae, commonly in reference to the genus Solidago. Several genera, such as Euthamia, were formerly included in a broader concept of the genus Solidago. Some authors treat Oligoneuron, the flat-topped goldenrods, as a separate genus than Solidago, while others consider it a section: Solidago sect. Ptarmicoidei. Goldenrods can be used as a sustainable method to enrich soil with nitrogen. With an increase of nitrogen levels, there can then be an increase of vegetative growth. Plants known as goldenrods include: * Bigelowia spp., rayless goldenrods, 2 species native to the Southeastern United States * Cuniculotinus gramineus, Panamint rock goldenrod * Euthamia spp., flat-topped goldenrods or grass-leaved goldenrods, 5 species native to North America * Gundlachia triantha, Trans-Pecos desert goldenrod * , small-headed heath goldenrod * , Texas desert goldenrod * Petradoria pumila, rock goldenrod * Solidago spp., goldenrods, around 120 species native to the Americas, northern Africa, Europe, Asia (en)
