Producing galls; bearing or forming abnormal plant growths or swellings.
From Latin 'galla' (gall) + '-ferous' (from '-fer,' meaning to carry or produce). The suffix combines Latin roots to create an adjective meaning 'producing or bearing galls.'
Some plants are galliferous champions—a single oak can host hundreds of galls from different insects, turning the tree into a bustling city of gall-makers each season, yet the tree usually survives just fine.
