Two New Records From Lebanon: Chamaesyce Nutans (Lag.) Small (Euphorbiaceae) And Eleusine Indica (L.) Gaertner (Poaceae), Ricardus M. Haber, Myrna T. Semaan Jan 2007

Two New Records From Lebanon: Chamaesyce Nutans (Lag.) Small (Euphorbiaceae) And Eleusine Indica (L.) Gaertner (Poaceae), Ricardus M. Haber, Myrna T. Semaan

Turkish Journal of Botany

Chamaesyce nutans (Lag.) Small (Euphorbiaceae) and Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertner (Poaceae) are described as new records for the flora of Lebanon. Specimens of C. nutans collected from roadsides and rocks in a middle mountain forest confirm the occurrence of the species on the western slopes of the Mount Lebanon Range. Additionally, specimens of E. indica were collected from wasteland and roadsides in the coastal town of Kaslik. The species were observed to thrive abundantly in similar habitats along the coastal urban zone of Lebanon.


Stock Assessment And Management Of The Egyptian Sole Solea Aegyptiaca Chabanaud, 1927 (Osteichthyes: Soleidae), In The Southeastern Mediterranean, Egypt, Sahar Fahmy Mehanna Jan 2007

Stock Assessment And Management Of The Egyptian Sole Solea Aegyptiaca Chabanaud, 1927 (Osteichthyes: Soleidae), In The Southeastern Mediterranean, Egypt, Sahar Fahmy Mehanna

Turkish Journal of Zoology

Aspects of the population dynamics of the Egyptian sole, Solea aegyptiaca, which is a commercially important endemic and demersal flatfish species in the Egyptian Mediterranean waters, were described based on materials collected monthly between February 2004 and May 2005 from the fishing harbor at Port Said city. Age and growth studies based on sagittal otoliths revealed that this species is relatively fast growing with a maximum age of 4 years. Marginal increment analysis suggested that bands on sagittae are deposited once a year during the winter. Mean back-calculated total lengths ranged from 17.75 cm at age I to 28.22 cm …

Growth, Yield, And Quality Of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea Batatas (L.) Lam.) Cultivars In The Southeastern Anatolian And East Mediterranean Regions Of Turkey, Mehmet Emi̇n Çalişkan, Tahsi̇n Söğüt, Erkan Boydak, Eli̇f Ertürk, Hali̇s Arioğlu

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The study was carried out to determine the adaptation potential of sweet potato crops to different regions of Turkey. The study included 9 introduced genotypes of diverse origin and 2 local genotypes that were tested in 4 locations (Diyarbakır and Şanlıurfa representing the southeastern Anatolia region, and Adana and Hatay representing the Mediterranean region) in 2000 and 2001. Haulm and storage root growth of the cultivars were monitored at monthly intervals. Total and graded storage root yield, and some quality parameters were determined at the final harvest. Although haulm and storage growth varied according to location and year, all cultivars …
