Description
Summary:The literary sources, describing taxonomic history of Euphorbieae tribe, in particular genus Euphorbia, have been thoroughly analyzed. Systematic division of these taxons changed repeatedly because of generous amount of specious and their cosmopolitan distribution. Neither of classifications offered to date coincides with the molecular data analysis directed to study their phylogenic cognation. The literary sources on morphology of inflorescence, fruit, anatomy of lacticifers and biochemical composition of milk juice have been also analyzed. It is evident that the features of anatomic structure of shoots in connection with different ecological and climatic conditions of sprouting to date have not been studied enough.
