EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 4 from Le Regne Vegetal, Vol 12, Hort. Atlas (1870), held in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum, London, showcases an intriguing collection of vegetable roots from various plant families. The title of the plate, "Racines alimentaires" (Edible Roots), highlights the importance of these roots as a significant source of nutrition for humans. The illustration features roots from several plant families, including the Umbelliferae, represented by the carrot (Daucus carota), and the Allium family, with the onion (Allium cepa) and garlic. The Amaryllidaceae family is also represented by the bulbous root of the Allium. The roots of monocots, such as the Allium and Daucus, are depicted with their characteristic simple vascular system, while the dicot roots, such as those of the Apiaceae family, display a more complex, branched vascular system. The roots of monocots, being monocotyledons, have a single cotyledon, while dicots, as eudicots, have two. The roots of these vegetable plants are not only a vital source of food for humans but also play a crucial role in the plants' growth and survival. They absorb water and nutrients from the soil, anchoring the plant and providing structural support. The roots of these plants belong to the Angiospermae, or flowering plants, and are part of the Magnoliophyta division, which includes all seed-producing plants. The roots of the plants in this plate are from the order Apiales, part of the larger order Asparagales, which also includes plants such as asparagus and agave. This beautiful and intricately detailed botanical illustration provides a glimpse into the diversity and complexity of the vegetable world, showcasing the various forms and functions of edible roots from different plant families.
