Plant theory 2Aurantioideae is split of from
Rutaceae. All 4 subfamilies of
Rutaceae are placed in the order
Rutales in
Phase 4.
Aurantioideae is placed in
Subphase 4.
Plant theory 1Aurantioideae was placed in
Phase 4 of
Sapindales, in
Subphase 1 together with all
Rutaceae.
TaxonomyIn the
Apg4 classification Rutaceae is one of the main families in the
Sapindales.
Plant theoryIn the
Plant theory this was adopted formerly. Now
Sapindales is split in
Rutales and
Sapindales.
Rutales stays in
Phase 4.
Sapindales is transferred to
Phase 5.
The
Rutaceae is split in 4 Subfamilies and placed in placed in
Subphase 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Aurantioideae is a monophyletic clade in
Rutales. It is placed in
Subphase 4.
Aurantioideae has been named in the past also Rutoideae. I formner
Classification Ruta was included in
Aurantioideae, but new research has shown Ruta to be in a different clade Ruteae.
