| Genus: Portulaca L. |
In 1979, botany professor Avinoam Danin from Israel distinguished and described six different species of the Portulaca oleracea aggregate
based on their seeds. These have different surface structures, allowing species to be differentiated according these.
It is convenient to use a microscope for the determination of the surface structures.
