Capsella is a genus of herbaceous plant and biennial plants in the Mustard family Brassicaceae.[1] It is a close relative of Arabidopsis, Neslia, and Halimolobos.[2]
Some recent authors circumscribe Capsella to contain only three species: Capsella bursa-pastoris, Capsella rubella and Capsella grandiflora.[2]
