(Leguminosae) in Central Anatolia is presented. Comparative morphological characters and their variation in the Genus; Calyx, leaf, corolla and pollen grains micro-morphology of the species; Anatomy of the species; Ecology, endemism, phytogeography and IUCN threat categories of the species; Numerical analysis and Revision of the genus in Central Anatolia were conducted. For the first time the calyx, corolla and leaf micromorphology, and the anatomical characteristics of Lathyrus were examined. Infrageneric delimitation of the species is performed by using multivariate analysis. As a result of morphological and anatomical data, it is suggested that L. haussknechtii should be classified as different species not variety of L. brachypterus. iv The collected specimens was crosschecked with neighboring floras and the existing type specimens known from Turkey ANK, GAZİ, HUB, KNYA, CUFH, Erciyes, and Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) herbaria. Morphological and micromorphological characters of pollen grains were revealed. It was determined that the pollen grains size and sculpturing were important diagnostic characters for the species. The statistical analysis was applied to compare P/E ratios of the pollen grains of studied taxa. According to this analysis, the P/E ratio is important diagnostic feature for most of the sections and the species. Sectional key and species key were prepared and updated. Expanded descriptions, GPS data, some photographs and some notes on the taxonomy of the species were given. Key words: Leguminosae, Lathyrus L., anatomy, morphology, systematics, Central Anatolia geographic region, Turkey. v ÖZ İÇ ANADOLU BÖLGESİ’NDEKİ LATHYRUS L.

    ARCHAEOBOTANY IN GREECE Alexandra Livarda, Department of Archaeology, University of Nottingham, UK The final version of this paper can be found in the following publication: Livarda, A. 2014. Archaeobotany in Greece. Archaeological Reports 60: 106-116. This paper provides a brief overview of the history and the main achievements of archaeobotanical work in Greece to date, with the aim of highlighting its potential and creating a framework in which future work can be contextualised. The term ‘archaeobotany’ is used here in its narrow sense, referring to the study of plant macroremains, such as seeds, fruits and other plant parts, and excluding charcoal studies or ‘anthracology’ and analyses of microremains (e.g. pollen, phytoliths), which have developed to become separate sub-disciplines. From the first finds to a science Plant remains in the form of large concentrations of seeds, or individual finds of large specimens (known as spot finds), such as fruit stones, have been reported in the archaeological literature since the end of the nineteenth century. Botanical specimens that were occasionally unearthed caught the attention of archaeologists and site directors, who would either invite botanists or other experts to identify the species, or would simply rely on the expertise of the archaeological team, including that of local workers. A rather widely reported case is that of the early excavations at Knossos, where local workmen identified seeds found in a pithos as ‘Egyptian beans’, a variety of small fava beans imported to Crete from Alexandria at the end of the nineteenth century (Evans 1901, 20–21). At the other end of the spectrum, Schliemann (1886, 93), for instance, sent samples of the masses of burnt grains encountered in the early levels of Tiryns to an expert, Professor L.

Biologie vegetală, 2020, 66: 13-29 ISSN: 1223-6578, E-ISSN: 2247-2711 ASPECTS REGARDING FLORA AND THE ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE OF SOME PLANT SPECIES FROM THE LOCAL MEADOWS OF BĂICENI (BOTOȘANI COUNTY) Florentina ȘCHIOPU1, Anișoara STRATU2*, Irina IRIMIA2 Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to inventory the plant species in the meadows on the territory of Băiceni and highlight their economic importance. The floristic studies were carried out in the vegetation season from 2018 to 2019. Based on the literature, plant species were identified and then processed in terms of bioforms, floristic elements and ecological indices. Also, the economic categories in which the identified species fall were analysed. 66 species belonging to 21 botanical families have been identified. The families Fabaceae, Poaceae and Asteraceae were distinguished by the higher number of species. Most of the species identified in the study area are hemicryptophytes, heliophiles, eurytherms, which grow on dry to moderately moist soils, euritrophs. Over 50% of the identified species belong to several categories of useful plants (fodder, medicinal, melliferous). Keywords: flora, meadows, bioforms, floristic elements, ecological indices, economic categories. Introduction In Romania, in 2014, hayfields and pastures occupied 31.9% of the country's agricultural area (Raport anual privind starea mediului în România, anul 2017). In Botoșani County, at the level of 2019, pastures, hayfields and natural meadows represented 23% of the agricultural area of the county, the pastures having a higher share (19%) (Raport privind starea mediului în județul Botoșani în anul 2019).

ABSTRACT Lathyrus species are well placed to meet the increasing global demand for food and animal feed, at the time of climate change. Conservation and sustainable use of the genetic resources of Lathyrus is of significant importance to allow the regain of interest in Lathyrus species in world. A comprehensive global database of Lathyrus species originating from the Mediterranean Basin, Caucasus, Central and West Asia Regions is developed using accessions in major genebanks and information from eight herbaria in Europe. This Global Lathyrus database was used to conduct gap analysis to guide future collecting missions and in situ conservation efforts for 37 priority species. The results showed the highest concentration of Lathyrus priority species in the countries of the Fertile Crescent, France, Italy and Greece.

    Final Report Final pre-release investigations of the gorse thrips (Sericothrips staphylinus) as a biocontrol agent for gorse (Ulex europaeus) in North America Date: August 31, 2012 Award Number: 10-CA-11420004-184 Report Period: June 1, 2010– May 31, 2012 Project Period: June 1, 2010– May 31, 2012 Recipient: Oregon State University Recipient Contact Person: Fritzi Grevstad Principal Investigator/ Project Director: Fritzi Grevstad Introduction Gorse (Ulex europaeus) is an environmental weed classified as noxious in the states of Washington, Oregon, California, and Hawaii. A classical biological control program has been applied in Hawaii with the introduction of 4 gorse-feeding arthropods, but only two of these (a mite and a seed weevil) have been introduced to the mainland U.S. The two insects that have not yet been introduced include the gorse thrips, Sericothips staphylinus (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), and the moth Agonopterix umbellana (Lepidoptera: Oecophoridae). With prior support from the U.S. Forest Service (joint venture agreement # 07-JV-281), we were able to complete host specificity testing of S. staphylinus on 44 North American plant species that were on the original test plant list. However, following review of the proposed Test Plant List, the Technical Advisory Group on Biocontrol of Weeds (TAG) recommended that we include an additional 18 plant species for testing. In this report, we present host specificity testing and related objectives necessary to bring the program to the implementation stage. Objectives (1) Acquire and grow the additional 18 species of plants recommended by the TAG. (2) Complete host specificity trials for the gorse thrips on the 18 plant species.

  • Variation in the Grass Pea (Lathyrus Sa Tivus L.' and Wild Species
    Euphytica 33 (1984) 549-559 VARIATION IN THE GRASS PEA (LATHYRUS SA TIVUS L.' AND WILD SPECIES M. T. JACKSON and A. G. YUNUS1 Department of Plant Biology, University of Birmingham, Bl5 2Tr, England Received 21 September 1983 .DEX WORDS Lathyrus sativus,grass pea, wild species,variation, multivariate analyses. SUMMARY Forty-nine accessionsof Lathyrus sativuswere studied for morphological variation. Data were analysed using Principal Components Analysis and Cluster Analysis. The variation in 14 speciesof SectionLathyrus was also evaluated in order to ascertainaffinities betweenL. sativusand other species. L. sativus is a highly variable species,and there is a clear distinction betweenthe blue-flowered fonns from south-west Asia, Ethiopia and the Indian subcontinent, and the white and white and blue flowered fonns with white seedswhich have a more westerly distribution. Differences in vegetative parts may be due to selectionfor forage types. L. sativus appears to be closely related to L. cicera and L. gorgoni, and this relationship needs further investigation. INTRODUCTION The genus Lathyrus is large with 187 speciesand subspeciesrecognised (ALLKIN et al., 1983).Species are found in the Old World and the New World, but clearly there are centres of diversity for Old World speciesin Asia Minor and the Mediterranean region (ZEVEN& DE WET,1982). A number of speciesare usedas animal fodder plants including L. hirsutusand L. palustris, and some are valued as ornamentals, especially L. odoratus,the sweetpea.
