The '''Capparaceae''' (or '''Capparidaceae'''), commonly known as the [[caper]] family, are a family of plants in the order [[Brassicales]]. As currently circumscribed, the family contains 33 genera and about 700 species. The largest genera are ''[[Capparis]]'' (about 150 species), ''[[Maerua]]'' (about 100 species), ''[[Boscia]]'' (37 species) and ''[[Cadaba]]'' (30 species).
 
 
 
==Relationships==
 
The Capparaceae have long been considered closely related to and have often been included in the [[Brassicaceae]], the mustard family (APG, 1998), in part because both groups produce [[glucosinolate]] ([[mustard oil]]) compounds. Subsequent molecular studies<ref>(Hall et al., 2002, 2008)</ref> support Capparaceae'' sensu stricto'' as [[Paraphyly|paraphyletic]] with respect to the Brassicaceae. However ''[[Cleome]]'' and several related genera are more closely related to members of the Brassicaceae than to the other Capparaceae. These genera are now either placed in the Brassicaceae (as subfamily Clemoideae) or segregated into the [[Cleomaceae]]. Several more genera of the traditional Capparaceae are more closely related to other members of the Brassicales, and the relationships of several more remain unresolved.<ref>(Hall et al. 2004).</ref> Based on morphological grounds and supported by molecular studies, the American species traditionally identified as ''Capparis'' have been transferred to resurrected [[genus|generic]] names. Several new genera have also been recently described.<ref>(Cornejo & Iltis 2006, 2008a-e; Iltis & Cornejo, 2007; Hall, 2008).</ref>
