Gossypium (genus) (Malvaceae (family), Malvales (order), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Genus containing around 50 species of shrubs native to most subtropical areas of the world, long cultivated for fiber and oil. Many varieties of cotton have been developed by selective breeding and hybridisation of various species. Cotton cloth was made as early as 5000 BCE in India; by 3000 BCE, cotton fabrics were being woven in Egypt, China, and Peru. Cultivation of cotton became widespread in Europe in the Middle Ages.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 包含約50個灌木物種的屬，原生於全球大部分的熱帶地區，受到長期耕作以取得其纖維與油脂。許多棉的變種是由各種不同物種透過選擇性的繁殖與雜交方式發展而成。早在西元前5000年的印度就已製出棉布；在西元前3000年之前，埃及、中國、祕魯已有棉織品的織造。在中世紀時，棉在歐洲已被廣為種植。 |
| Dutch ..... Genus van ongeveer 50 soorten struiken die inheems zijn in de meeste subtropische gebieden van de wereld en al heel lang worden verbouwd vanwege hun vezels en olie. Veel variëteiten katoenplanten zijn ontstaan door veredeling en kruising van diverse soorten. Al in 5000 v.Chr. maakte men in India doeken van katoen. In 3000 v.Chr. weefde men katoenen stoffen in Egypte, China en Peru. In Europa begon men in de Middeleeuwen op grote schaal katoen te verbouwen. |
