Family of aloe vera

Answer 1

Molecular studies, especially those based on DNA, have eliminated much of the uncertainty and guesswork that once characterized systematic botany. The classification of the genus Aloe and its relatives (Asphodelus, Kniphofia, Bulbine, etc.) is a good example. Older classification systems put Aloe in the family Liliaceae, but comparisons of DNA sequences have shown that this is clearly wrong.

The molecular phylogenetic studies put Aloe in the very large order Asparagales. Within Asparagales, it is either in the family Asphodelaceae or the family Xanthorrhoeaceae. The choice between these two families is not a question of what is related to what, but a question of what groups to put at the rank of family. What some call Asphodelaceae is treated by others as the subfamily Asphodeloideae of the family Xanthorrhoeaceae. I must admit a personal preference for rankless systems like phylocode. As long as one knows what group is a subset of what other group, i dont think that it matters much whether a group is called a family, a subfamily, or whatever. Wikipedia has a good article on Xanthorrhoeaceae that goes into more detail.
