It's definately the same genus man.

Look at these seeds of Sesbania vesicaria Bagpod

Yes, I think you've hit the target square on.  I'm enjoying reading about the plants now.  :)

Tom, is there a SE Plant guide by Audubon? I Have 3 shrubs and flower books of the east and they don't even have that genus in there. I'd be writing Audubon a letter. These plants are native.  >:(

It's kind of odd looking at the fruit of it. Looks like two cases. But think of an apple, there is an outside skin, then the flesh, then another membrane around the seeds.  ;)

Tom, are you gonna be able to keep these 'pods' all separated in your mind the next time your neighbor or guest asks ya to id it? By the looks of that USDA site, we's just begun to discover them. A lot more yet to separate. ;D ;)

I thought they look like dingle berries. Nah, dingle berries are found on the south end of sheep.

Today, in East Texas, I saw a lot of sesbania!  It is quite distinctive.
