'''''Tragopogon''''', also known as '''goatsbeard'''<ref>{{PLANTS|id=TRAGO|taxon=Tragopogon|accessdate=14 December 2015}}</ref> or '''salsify''', is a [[Biology:Genus|genus]] of [[Biology:Flowering plant|flowering plant]]s in the family [[Biology:Asteraceae|Asteraceae]]. It includes the vegetable known as [[Biology:Tragopogon porrifolius|salsify]], as well as a number of common wild flowers.

Salsifies are [[Earth:Forb|forb]]s growing as [[Biology:Biennial plant|biennial]] or [[Biology:Perennial plant|perennial plant]]s.  They have a strong taproot and milky sap.  They generally have few branches, and those there are tend to be upright.  Their leaves are somewhat grass-like.  Flower colour varies within the genus, with some yellow species, and some bronze or purple.  Seeds are [[Biology:Achene|achene]]s and are borne in a globe like that of a dandelion but larger, and are dispersed by the wind.

The salsifies are mostly natives of [[Earth:Europe|Europe]] and [[Earth:Asia|Asia]], but several species have been introduced into [[Earth:North America|North America]] and {{wipe|Australia}} and have spread widely there.  There is one species sometimes considered native to North America, ''[[Biology:Tragopogon mirus|Tragopogon mirus]]'', but it is in fact a hybrid of two non-native species.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bonap.net/NAPA/TaxonMaps/Genus/County/Tragopogon|website=Biota of North America Program|accessdate=26 May 2017|title=2013 BONAP North American Plant Atlas.

Some of the more common species of ''Tragopogon'' are known, in the regions where they are most common, by the common names goat's beard, goatsbeard, salsify, or common salsify, without further qualification.  These names are therefore inherently ambiguous, and best avoided, or reserved for the genus collectively.  In the species list below, the first common name given is the one that seems to be most widely used for that species and is not in significant use for any other species.

The vegetable called salsify is usually the root of the purple salsify, ''[[Biology:Tragopogon porrifolius|Tragopogon porrifolius]]''; the root is described as having the taste of [[Biology:Oyster|oyster]]s (hence the alternative common name "oyster plant" for some species in this genus), but more  insipid with a touch of sweetness.  The young shoots of purple salsify can also be eaten, as well as young leaves [http://www.northernbushcraft.com/plants/salsify/notes.htm].  Other species are also used in the same way, including the black or Spanish salsify, ''Scorzonera hispanica'', which is closely related though not a member of the genus ''Tragopogon''.

==Etymology==
The name ''Tragopogon'' comes {{etymology|grc|''{{wikt-lang|grc|τράγος}}'' ({{grc-transl|τράγος}})|billy goat||''{{wikt-lang|grc|πώγων}}'' ({{grc-transl|πώγων}})|beard}}.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Neill |first1=Amanda |title=A Dictionary of Common Wildflowers of Texas & the Southern Great Plains |date=2005 |publisher=TCU Press |location=Fort Worth |page=155}}</ref>

==Hybrid speciation==
Salsifies are one example where [[Biology:Hybrid speciation|hybrid speciation]] has been observed.<ref>Ownbey, M. 1950. Natural hybrid speciation and amphiploidy in the genus ''Tragopogon''. American Journal of Botany 37:487–499.</ref><ref>S.J. Novak, D.E. Soltis, & P.S. Soltis. 1991. Ownbey's Tragopogons Forty Years Later. American Journal of Botany 78:1586–1600.</ref> In the early 1900s, humans introduced three species of goatsbeard into North America. These [[Biology:Species|species]], the western salsify (''[[Biology:Tragopogon dubius|T. dubius]]''), the meadow salsify (''T. pratensis''), and the oyster plant (''[[Biology:Tragopogon porrifolius|T. porrifolius]]''), are now common in urban areas. In the 1950s, botanists found two new species in the regions of Idaho and {{wipe|Washington (state)}}, where the three already known species overlapped. One new species, ''[[Biology:Tragopogon miscellus|Tragopogon miscellus]]'', is a tetraploid [[Biology:Hybrid|hybrid]] of ''T. dubius'' and ''T. pratensis''. The other species, ''[[Biology:Tragopogon mirus|Tragopogon mirus]]'', is also an allopolyploid, but its ancestors were ''T. dubius'' and ''T. porrifolius''.  These new species are usually referred to as "the Ownbey hybrids" after the botanist who first described them.  The ''T. mirus'' population grows mainly by reproduction of its own members, but additional episodes of hybrid speciation continue to add to the ''T. mirus'' population.<ref>Soltis, D. E., Soltis, P. S., Pires, J. C., Kovarik, A., Tate, J. A., & Mavrodiev, E. (2004).  Recent and recurrent polyploidy in ''Tragopogon'' (Asteraceae): cytogenetic, genomic and genetic comparisons.
