Macrofungi Of Honaz Mountain (Denizli), Kudret Gezer, Mustafa Işiloğlu, Azi̇z Türkoğlu, Hakan Alli
Turkish Journal of Botany
Specimens of macrofungi were collected from localities on Honaz Mountain (Denizli) in 2005 and 2006, particularly during autumn and spring. Field and laboratory studies revealed a total of 109 taxa belonging to 64 genera, 32 families and 2 classes. Six taxa belong to Ascomycetes and 103 to Basidiomycetes.

The Phytoplankton Community (Except Bacillariophyceae) Of Lake Abant (Bolu, Turkey), Abuzer Çelekli̇, Olcay Obali, Okan Külköylüoğlu
Turkish Journal of Botany
A total of 162 phytoplankton species found monthly from 3 littoral and 2 vertical stations between June 2003 and June 2005 were identified from Lake Abant (Bolu, Turkey). Some species, such as Trachelomonas volvocina Ehrenberg, Cryptomonas ovata Ehrenberg, and Ceratium hirundinella (Müller) Dujardin showed frequent occurrence almost every month, but others had specific seasonality. Phytoplankton composition of this lake was dominated by Chlorophyta, accounting for about 58.6% of the species richness. Phytoplankton composition in Lake Abant included many new reported (> 30) taxa for the algal flora of Turkey.
The Taxonomy And Variation Of Leaf Anatomical Characters In The Genus Aegilops L. (Poaceae) In Iran, Navaz Kharazian
The Taxonomy And Variation Of Leaf Anatomical Characters In The Genus Aegilops L. (Poaceae) In Iran, Navaz Kharazian
Turkish Journal of Botany
This study concerns the evaluation of leaf anatomical characters (7 qualitative and 12 quantitative characters) among 26 accessions of the Aegilops L. species. The results of this study showed that the anatomical characters have high variation in the width of stomata, the number of long cells in the adaxial epidermis, the number of short cells in the abaxial epidermis, the number of stomata in the abaxial epidermis, the occurrence of prickles in the adaxial epidermis, and the width of phloem cells. The variations in anatomical characters were related to the cold and warm areas of Iran and commonly occurred among …
A Morphological Investigation Of Colchicum L. (Liliaceae) Species In The Mediterranean Region In Turkey, Olcay Di̇nç Düşen, Hüseyi̇n Sümbül
A Morphological Investigation Of Colchicum L. (Liliaceae) Species In The Mediterranean Region In Turkey, Olcay Di̇nç Düşen, Hüseyi̇n Sümbül
Turkish Journal of Botany
The morphological features of Colchicum L. species were studied based on samples collected from the Mediterranean region in Turkey between 2000 and 2004. Typifications, synonym lists, descriptions, ecology, and phytogeography are provided for all Colchicum species and relationships to similar species are discussed. New features were determined that were not previously given in descriptions of Colchicum species in the Flora of Turkey, and useful identification keys (for both flowering material and leafing-fruiting material) were prepared for all Colchicum species in the Mediterranean region of Turkey.
Juniperus Oxycedrus L. Subsp. Oxycedrus Var. Spilinanus Yalt., Eliçin & Terzioğlu: A New Variety From Turkey, Fai̇k Yaltirik, Gökhan Eli̇çi̇n, Sali̇h Terzi̇oğlu
Juniperus Oxycedrus L. Subsp. Oxycedrus Var. Spilinanus Yalt., Eliçin & Terzioğlu: A New Variety From Turkey, Fai̇k Yaltirik, Gökhan Eli̇çi̇n, Sali̇h Terzi̇oğlu
Turkish Journal of Botany
A new variety from Turkey is described and illustrated: Juniperus oxycedrus L. subsp. oxycedrus var. spilinanus Yalt., Eliçin & Terzioğlu. This variety grows in forest clearings of Pinus brutia Ten. and P. nigra J.F.Arnold subsp. nigra var. caramanica (Loudon) Rehder, and on stony slopes (800-1400 m) in Spildağı National Park, Manisa (B1) in West Anatolia. Its diagnostic morphological characters are discussed.
