Berberis (genus) (Berberidaceae (family), Ranunculales (order), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Genus containing about 500 species of deciduous and evergreen shrubs having thorny shoots, native to the temperate and subtropical regions of Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America. They are closely related to the genus Mahonia, which is included within Berberis in some classifications. Berberis shrubs have yellow wood, yellow six-petaled flowers, and usually three-branched spines at the base of leafstalks. The fruit is a red, yellow, blue, purple, or black berry, with one to several seeds. The fruits of several species are made into jellies. The wood from the barberry stems and roots can be cooked in water to extract a strong yellow dye.

| Chinese (traditional) ..... 包含近500種的落葉與常綠灌木，枝有棘刺，原生於歐洲、亞洲、非洲、北美洲、南美洲的溫帶與亞熱帶區域。與十大功勞屬（Mahonia）的親緣關係十分接近，某些分類系統中，十大功勞屬被歸於小檗屬。木材黃色，花亦黃色，六瓣，葉柄基部通常有三分岔的刺狀突起。果實為漿果，紅、黃、藍、紫或黑色，有一或數顆種子。數種樹種的果實可作果醬。將小檗屬樹木的枝幹與根部木材放在水中煮，可萃取出色澤濃重的黃色染料。 |
| Dutch ..... Genus van ongeveer 500 soorten bladverliezende en groenblijvende struiken met doornige spruiten die inheems zijn in de gematigde en subtropische streken in Europa, Azië, Afrika en Noord- en Zuid-Amerika. Ze zijn nauw verwant aan het genus Mahonia, dat in sommige classificaties is opgenomen in Berberis. Struiken uit Berberis hebben geel hout, gele bloemen met zes bloemblaadjes en in de meeste gevallen doorns met drie stekels aan het begin van de bladstengels. De vrucht is een rode, gele, blauwe, paarse of zwarte bes met één of enkele zaadjes. Van de vruchten van verschillende soorten maakt men jam. Het hout van de stam en de wortels kookt men in water om een geconcentreerde gele kleurstof te extraheren. |
