Solanum stramoniifolium is a species of flowering plant from the genus Solanum.[1][2] The species was originally described by Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin in 1781. [1]
Description
This species is a suffrutescent herb,[3] common in disturbed low-lands of the northern part of South America. [4] The leaves closely resembles those of Solanum hirtum. It is shrub that can grow up to 2 m in height. [5]
Interactions
The plants are frequently visited by bees, which is essential for the pollination of the species. However the plants do not offer nectar, so the bees are attracted by the abundance of pollen [6]
Taxonomy
S. stramoniifolium is part of the genus Solanum, which consists of approximately 2000 species.
Edibility
Many species within the Solanum genus are considered edible. [2] There has been successful efforts to domesticate the S. stramoniifolium. [7] The yellow/red fruits are suggested to be edible [8]
