榕屬-1

榕屬（學名：Ficus），又名無花果屬，是桑科內的其中一屬也是無花果族（學名：Ficeae）的唯一屬，內裡包含近800種的樹木、灌木及藤本植物等[1]。它們原為熱帶雨林的原生品種，但也有部份延伸至暖溫帶，常被統稱為榕樹。其中一種最廣為人知的品種就是無花果（F. carica）。前者被當作水果而廣泛種植的溫帶物種，原產於中亞和地中海地區（從阿富汗 葡萄牙）。許多其他品種的果實也是可供食用，是野外求生中常當為應急食品的食物，也是野生動物們的大餐。

Ficus (scientific name: Ficus), also known as the genus Ficus, is one of the genus within the Moraceae family and the only genus of the fig family (scientific name: Ficeae). It contains nearly 800 species of trees, shrubs and vines [1]. They were originally native species of tropical rain forests, but some of them extend to warm temperate zones and are often collectively referred to as banyans. One of the most widely known varieties is the fig (F. carica). The former is a temperate species widely grown as a fruit, native to Central Asia and the Mediterranean (from Afghanistan to Portugal). The fruits of many other varieties are also edible. They are often used as emergency foods in survival in the wild, and they are also a feast for wild animals.
