  1. legume family

    The legume family, scientifically known as Fabaceae or Leguminosae, is a large family of flowering plants that includes well over 18,000 species. These species include many commonly known plants such as peas, beans, lentils, peanuts, and chickpeas. Members of this family are characterized by their fruit, which is typically a seed pod. They are also known for their ability to fix nitrogen from the atmosphere through a symbiotic relationship with bacteria in their root nodules, which enables them to thrive in nutrient-poor soils.
