Chromosome Numbers Of 16 Endemic Plant Taxa From Northern Cyprus, Kemal Yildiz, Sali̇h Gücel
Chromosome Numbers Of 16 Endemic Plant Taxa From Northern Cyprus, Kemal Yildiz, Sali̇h Gücel
Turkish Journal of Botany
The chromosome numbers of 16 of the 19 endemic taxa of Northern Cyprus were investigated, 15 of which are new records. Diploid chromosome numbers of the taxa investigated varied between 2n = 12 and 2n = 30. One species, Scutellaria sibthorpii (Benth.) Hal., was both diploid (2n = 14) and tetraploid (2n = 28), and Sideritis cypria Post, 2n = 30, was either diploid or triploid.

Isolation Of Trichomes From Wheat And Other Species Of Flowering Plants, Zaure G. Aytasheva, Elizaveta D. Bogdanova, Aitkali M. Kalimagambetov, Sergey V. Chekalin, Fatima A. Polimbetova
Isolation Of Trichomes From Wheat And Other Species Of Flowering Plants, Zaure G. Aytasheva, Elizaveta D. Bogdanova, Aitkali M. Kalimagambetov, Sergey V. Chekalin, Fatima A. Polimbetova
Turkish Journal of Botany
Plant hairiness or pubescence as a specific phenotypical feature related to dehydration tolerance and resistance to leaf vermin is considered in this paper. A method for the isolation of trichomes, earlier developed for Arabidopsis Heynh., was found to be appropriate for the separation of similar polarised cells from pubescent wheat, Triticum aestivum L., lines, as well as some other higher plant species. This procedure thus paves the way for the study of the molecular organisation of trichomes in wheat and other mono- and dicotyledoneous plants.

Mms-Induced Cytomixis In Pollen Mother Cells Of Broad Bean (Vicia Faba L.), Tariq Ahmad Bhat, Sahba Parveen, Ainul Haq Khan
Mms-Induced Cytomixis In Pollen Mother Cells Of Broad Bean (Vicia Faba L.), Tariq Ahmad Bhat, Sahba Parveen, Ainul Haq Khan
Turkish Journal of Botany
Cytomixis was recorded during microsporogenesis in broad bean (Vicia faba L.), a member of the family Fabaceae. It is an important pulse crop used as vegetable, silage, forage and stock feed. The phenomenon of cytomixis was observed in various stages of meiosis in methyl methane sulphonate (MMS) treated populations of Vicia faba L. Cytomixis was observed to occur through various methods, i.e. by forming cytoplasmic channels, and direct fusion of pollen mother cells (PMCs), the former was more frequent than the latter. Both types were observed at different stages of microsporogenesis. The migration of nuclear content involved all the chromatin/chromosomes …

Teucrium Chasmophyticum Rech. F. (Lamiaceae): A New Record For The Flora Of Turkey, Ali̇ Arslan Dönmez
Turkish Journal of Botany
An interesting chasmophytic Teucrium specimen was collected from Siirt, SE Turkey. It was identified according to the Flora of Turkey as T. paederotoides but with some doubt about certain characters. It was identified as T. chasmophyticum without any doubt from Flora Iranica. Because of some indistinct points between these 2 taxa, the recently described taxon was re-evaluated. The type specimen of the taxon was examined at W herbarium and its revised description is given here. A photograph of the type specimen and the Turkish material taken from the field is supplied along with a map.

Seasonal Variation Of Phytoplankton And Value Of Chlorophyll A In The Sarıyar Dam Reservoir (Ankara, Turkey), Tahi̇r Atici, Olcay Obali
Turkish Journal of Botany
The phytoplanktonic algae were determined in samples taken from 7 different locations at the Sarıyar Dam Reservoir (SDR) from March 1996 to June 1997. The seasonal variation of phytoplankton and their chlorophyll a were determined and contents were discussed in relation to the physical and chemical parameters of the water. The divisions Bacillariophyta and Chlorophyta were dominant; however, Cyclotella, Navicula, Nitzschia and Synedra of Bacillariophyta, and Chlorella and Scenedesmus of Chlorophyta were abundant. Chlorophyll a reached its maximum levels during June and September 1996 and May 1997, corresponding to the maximum values of orthophosphate, sulphate, calcium and temperature in the …

A Computerized Database For Freshwater Algae Recorded In Turkey, Bülent Şen, Mehmet Tahi̇r Alp, Feray Sönmez, Güler Aykulu, Kazim Yildiz
Turkish Journal of Botany
A computer-based database for freshwater algae recorded in Turkey has been established. The first phase of the project involved the selecting of data types available for freshwater algal species occurring in Turkey. Such data were obtained from algal studies previously carried out in various freshwater bodies of the country. Data were then standardized in accordance with "The Central Database of Turkish Herbaria". The database program Access was used for entering data, as this program recognises Turkish characters. Algal data were entered into the database in the following order: division, class, order, family, genus, species, species author, subspecies, subspecies author, variety, …

Saponaria Bargyliana Gombault (Caryophyllaceae): A New Record For Turkey And Analysis Of Its Morphological Characters With Related Species, Bi̇rol Mutlu
Turkish Journal of Botany
Previously, Saponaria bargyliana Gombault was known only from its type locality, the north of Syria in the Nosaïris mountains, which was published by Gombault in 1962. During a field trip in June 2002 to Erzin (Hatay) district, the species was collected for the second time from a new locality far from its locus classicus. Thus, this species was described as a new record for the flora of Turkey. The description of this species was expanded and its geographical distribution, habitat, flowering time and conservation status are discussed. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of Saponaria bargyliana and closely related species is discussed. …

On The Taxonomy Of Plantaginaceae Juss. Sensu Lato: Evidence From Sem Of The Seed Coat, Azza Ahmed Shehata, Mohamed Hesham A. Loutfy
Turkish Journal of Botany
SEM of the seed coat was studied in 41 taxa of the Plantaginaceae sensu lato. The study included 31 taxa of Plantago L. and 10 taxa that were formerly assigned to the Scrophulariaceae, representing the genera Antirrhinum L., Digitalis L., Linaria Mill. and Veronica L. The obtained data were analysed by the NT sys-PC program package using the UPGMA clustering method. The study showed that Veronica possessed certain affinities to Plantago species, thus giving extra support to earlier views that Plantaginaceae sensu stricto and Scrophulariaceae sensu lato are allied through Veronica. The study also favoured the paraphyly of Plantago subgenus …

Floristic Diversity And Phytogeography Of The Gebel Elba National Park, South-East Egypt, Monier M. Abd El-Ghani, Kadry N. Abdel-Khalik
Turkish Journal of Botany
The floristic composition and phytogeographical analysis of the Gebel Elba National Park in the south-east corner of Egypt were studied using multivariate analysis techniques. Its flora was poorly documented; therefore, 5 recent expeditions between 1998 and 2004 were carried out, which resulted in the collection of 179 species that belong to 51 families. Six major wadis (sites) were investigated to cover adequately the territory of the Park (35,600 km2) and to attain as complete an inventory of its vascular flora as possible. The floristic composition and species diversity among the wadis showed variations in species richness, yet W. Yahameib was …

Development Of An In Vitro Regeneration System In Sorghum [Sorghum Bicolor (L.) Moench] Using Root Transverse Thin Cell Layers (Ttcls), P. Baskaran, B. Raja Rajeswari, N. Jayabalan
Turkish Journal of Botany
An efficient and reproducible plant regeneration system was developed from cells or tissues of agronomically important Indian sorghum genotypes including 2 commercial cultivars (NSH27 & K8) of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. Callus induction and plant regeneration were achieved on transverse thin cell layers (tTCL) of roots from aseptically germinated 7-day-old seedlings. Callus response depended on the genotype, the concentrations and composition of growth substances and number of in vitro regeneration cycles undergone by the donor plant. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 4.5-18.1 µM 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), 5.4-21.5 µM naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), 5.7-22.8 µM indole acetic acid …
