Bursaphelenchus mucronatus, a species closely related to the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, a quarantine pest), was isolated from several wilted pine trees in different provinces of Turkey. To understand the role of B. mucronatus in these wilting cases, the pathogenicity of B. mucronatus on 3-year-old seedlings of the 3 pine species most widespread in Turkey was investigated under greenhouse conditions. In all, 30 seedlings of each tree species were used for nematode inoculation. For inoculation, 1000-1100 nematodes in 0.5 ml of distilled water were used per seedling. An additional 20 seedlings of each tree species were inoculated with an equal …

Species belonging to the family Leguminosae are widely grown in Turkey. Pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Pinto) is a traditional crop in Turkey and farmers grow local varieties that they select and maintain. Pinto bean is an important food in Samsun province, Turkey. Its crop is consumed as fresh pods, and fresh pod seed or dry seeds. This study was conducted in order to select valuable genetic resources of the pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Pinto) under the ecological conditions of Samsun in 2003 and 2004. In the first year, 44 pinto bean populations were collected and evaluated …
