Gossypieae

Gossypieae is a tribe of the Malvoideae subfamily of flowering plants. It includes the cotton (Gossypium) and related plants. It is distinguished from the Hibisceae tribe on the basis of embryo structure and its apparently unique possession of glands able to synthesize the pigment gossypol.
