The Agavaceae family comprises approximately 25 genera and 640 species, ranging from small herbs to arborescent shrubs. Traditionally recognized as an independent family, modern molecular phylogenetics (APG III/IV) often nests it within the Asparagaceae. This paper explores the taxonomic history, physiological adaptations such as Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) , and the multi-billion dollar economic impact of its key genera.
