Notes

1. As is the case with most popular vegetable crops it is difficult to sort through the botanical names available in the literature and find enough of them to cover all possibilities. Even the modern grouping system seems inadequate to date (first months of 2000). The above group names are proposed but still leave a lot to be desired. One of the difficulties is to decide which of the epithets to rogue out from the basic botanical name, because problems can be created whatever one decides to leave out.

2. The following examples remain to be matched (we have sorted some in the above records) :

3. All Japanese names lack precision and need to be reviewed.
