empetraceae การใช้
- Many of Hagerup s studies were concerned with plant species of the Ericaceae, Empetraceae and related families, or Bicornes as they were known in the Wettstein system.
- In 2002, systematic research resulted in the inclusion of the formerly recognised families Empetraceae, Epacridaceae, Monotropaceae, Prionotaceae, and Pyrolaceae into the Ericaceae based on a combination of molecular, morphological, anatomical, and embryological data, analysed within a phylogenetic framework.
- The genus and related ones such as " Ceratiola " and " Corema " were for most of the 20th century classified in their own family Empetraceae, but molecular data, leaf morphology, and other considerations point to their inclusion in the Ericaceae ( specifically, as a tribe within the subfamily Ericoideae ).
