Name, Last name: AHMET KAHRAMAN Signature : iii ABSTRACT MORPHOLOGY, ANATOMY AND SYSTEMATICS OF THE GENUS SALVIA L. (LAMIACEAE) IN EAST AND SOUTHEAST ANATOLIA, TURKEY Kahraman, Ahmet Ph.D., Department of Biological Sciences Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Musa Doğan July 2011, 336 pages This study aims to revise the genus Salvia L. in East and Southeast Anatolia in Turkey on the basis of macromorphological, anatomical, palynological, mericarp micro-morphological, ecological and numerical analysis. Towards achieving this goal, about 2500 specimens of Salvia were collected and examined during extensive field studies between July 2005 and June 2009. The materials collected by other researchers either from Turkey or abroad were also investigated. The results of the taxonomic revision show that the study area includes 59 taxa, 24 (40.7%) of which are endemic and the remaining 35 (59.3%) are non-endemic. Salvia siiirtica is described as new to science. S. macrosiphon is described as a new record for Turkey and S. cerino-pruinosa and S. pseudeuphratica are re-evaluated as valid species as well as S. ballsiana is rediscovered. Macromorphological characters that were considered to have taxonomically diagnostic value are investigated and their possible variations are discussed. Habit, iv stem, leaf, inflorescence, bract, calyx, corolla and stamen properties are compared at infrageneric and species level. The first comprehensive evaluation of the systematic value of anatomy, palynology and mericarp micromorphology of Salvia are presented. Some characters, such as row numbers of ray cells in the root, type of the leaf blade structure, shape of cross section of the petiole, shape and number of median vascular bundles, pollen size, size of mericarps and diameter of abscission scars, are useful for infrageneric delimitation. Variation in some anatomical characters, such as number of cell layers of collenchyma and cortex, number of cell layers of palisade parenchyma, size of petiole, number of lateral vascular bundles, exine ornamentation type of pollen, presence of large lumina in the middle of the primary lumen, the muri thickness, mericarp shape, mericarp length/width ratio and surface ornamentation type, can be used for separating species within the sections. Based on the updated geographical and ecological distribution, conservation status of the taxa is reassessed at regional, national and global levels. At the regional scale, the distribution is CR for 6 taxa EN for 9 taxa, VU for 5 taxa, NT for 10 taxa and LC for 29 taxa. At the national scale, the distribution is CR for 5 taxa, EN for 5 taxa, VU for 7 taxa, NT for 10 taxa and LC for 32 taxa. At the global scale, the distribution is CR for 5 taxa, EN for 3 taxa, VU for 6 taxa, NT for 10 taxa NT and LC for 35 taxa. The main threats in the study area are overgrazing, constructions, land clearing, fire, urbanization and tourism. The infrageneric delimitation is performed using multivariate analysis. Identification keys to sections and species are given. Synonymy, updated descriptions, phenology, distribution and habitats in Turkey, general distribution outside Turkey, distribution maps, phytogeography, specimen citations, some notes on taxonomy and photographs showing general appearance of the taxa are also provided. Keywords: Lamiaceae, Salvia, systematics, morphology, anatomy, palynology, East and Southeast Anatolia, Turkey. v ÖZ TÜRKĠYE’NĠN DOĞU VE GÜNEY DOĞU ANADOLU BÖLGELERĠ’NDE BULUNAN SALVIA L. (LAMIACEAE) CĠNSĠNĠN MORFOLOJĠSĠ, ANATOMĠSĠ VE SĠSTEMATĠĞĠ Kahraman, Ahmet Doktora, Biyolojik Bilimler Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Prof. Dr. Musa Doğan Temmuz 2011, 336 sayfa Bu çalışma makromorfolojik, anatomik, palinolojik, merikarp mikromorfolijisi, ekolojik ve numerik analizler kullanılarak Türkiye’nin Doğu ve Güneydoğu bölgerinde bulunan Salvia cinsinin revizyonunu gerçekleştirmeyi amaçlar. Bunun için, Salvia taksonlarının yaklaşık 2500 örneği Temmuz 2005 ve Haziran 2009 arasındaki yoğun arazi çalışmaları boyunca toplanmış ve incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, yerli ve yabancı araştırmacılar tarafından toplanmış materyaller de incelenmiştir. Taksonomik revizyonun sonuçları çalışma alanında 59 taksonun bulunduğunu, bunların 24 (40.7%)’ünün endemik geriye kalan 35 (59.3%) taksonun ise endemik olmadığını gösterir. Salvia siirtica bilim dünyası için yeni bir tür olarak tanımlanmıştır. S. macrosiphon Türkiye için yeni kayıt olarak bulunmuş, S. cerino- pruinosa ve S. pseudeuphratica yeniden tür olarak değerlendirilmiş ayrıca S. ballsiana yeniden keşfedilmiştir. vi Taksonomik olarak ayırt edici değeri olduğu düşünülen makromorfolojik karakterler araştırılmış ve bunların olası varyasyonları tartışılmıştır. Habit, gövde, yaprak, çiçek durumu, brakte, çanak yaprak, taç yaprak ve stamen özellikleri cins içi ve tür seviyesinde karşılaştırılmıştır. Salvia’nın anatomisi, palinolojisi ve merikarp mikromorfolojisinin sistematik önemi üzerine ilk kapsamlı değerlendirme sunulmuştur. Bazı karakterler cins içi sınıflandırmada faydalı bulunmuştur örneğin; kökteki ışın hücrelerinin sıra sayısı, yaprak ayası tipi, yaprak sapının enine kesitinin şekli, ortadaki iletim demetlerinin şekli ve sayısı, polen büyüklüğü, merikarpın büyüklüğü ve hilumun çapı. Bazı anatomik karekterlerdeki varyasyon türlerin ayırt edilmesinde kullanılabilir; korteks ve kollenkima hüclerinin tabaka sayısı, palizat parenkima hücrelerinin tabaka sayısı, yaprak sapının büyüklüğü, yandaki iletim demetlerinin sayısı, polen eksin ornamentasyonunun tipi, primer luminanın ortasında geniş sekonder luminanın varlığı, merikarp şekli, uzunluk/genişlik oranı ve yüzey ornamentasyon tipi gibi. Güncellenen coğrafik ve ekolojik dağılımlar dikkate alınarak, taksonların koruma statüleri bölgesel, ulusal ve uluslararası ölçekte tekrar değerlendirilmiştir. Bölgesel ölçekte 6 takson CR, 9 takson EN, 5 takson VU, 10 takson NT ve 29 takson LC; ulusal ölçekte 5 takson CR, 5 takson EN, 7 takson VU, 10 takson NT ve 32 takson LC; uluslararası ölçekte 5 takson CR, 3 takson EN, 6 takson VU, 10 takson NT ve 35 takson LC kategorisindedir. Çalışma alanındaki en önemli tehtitler; aşırı otlatma, inşaat çalışmaları, arazi açma, yangınlar, kentleşme ve turizmdir. Cins içi sınıflandırma çoklu varyasyon analizi yardımı ile yapılmıştır. Seksiyon ve tür anahtarları verilmiştir. Ayrıca, taksonların sinonimi, tip örnekleri, güncellenmiş betimleri, fenolojisi, Türkiye’deki dağılımları ve habitatları, Türkiye dışındaki dağılımları, dağılım haritaları, fitocoğrafyası, incelenen örnekler, taksonomisi üzerine bazı notlar ve genel görünümlerini gösteren fotoğraflar verilmiştir.

  • Drought-Tolerant and Native Plants for Goleta and Santa Barbara County’S Mediterranean Climate
    Drought-Tolerant and Native Plants for Goleta and Santa Barbara County’s Mediterranean Climate Drought tolerant plants for the Santa Barbara and Goleta area. In the 1500's California went through an 80 year drought. During the winter there were blizzards in Central California, the Salinas River froze solid where it flowed into the Monterey Bay. During the summer there was no humidity, no rain, and temperatures in the hundreds for many months. During one year in the 1840's there was no measurable rain in Santa Barbara. (The highest measured rainfall in an hour also was in Southern California, 11 inches in an hour) The same native plants that lived through that are still on the hillsides of California. California native plants that do not normally live in the creeks and ponds are very drought tolerant. The best way to find your plant is to check www.mynativeplants.com and do not water at all.

  • Diversity in Host Preference of Rotylenchus Spp. Y.S
    International Journal of Science, Environment ISSN 2278-3687 (O) and Technology, Vol. 7, No 5, 2018, 1786 – 1793 2277-663X (P) DIVERSITY IN HOST PREFERENCE OF ROTYLENCHUS SPP. Y.S. Rathore Principal Scientist (Retd.), Indian Institute of Pulses Research, Kanpur -208024 (U.P.) E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Species of the genus Rotylenchus are ecto- or semi-endo parasites and feed on roots of their host plants. In the study it was found that 50% species of Rotylenchus were monophagous and mostly on plants in the clade Rosids followed by monocots, Asterids and gymnosperms. In general, Rosids and Asterids combined parasitized more than 50% host species followed by monocots. Though food preference was species specific but by and large woody plants were preferred from very primitive families like Magnoliaceae and Lauraceae to representatives of advanced families. Woody plants like pines and others made a substantial contribution in the host range of Rotylenchus. Maximum number of Rotylenchus species harboured plants in families Poaceae (monocots), Rosaceae (Rosids) and Oleaceae (Asterids) followed by Fabaceae, Fagaceae, Asteraceae and Pinaceae. It is, therefore, suggested that agricultural crops should be grown far away from wild vegetation and forest plantations. Keywords: Rotylenchus, Magnoliids, Rosids, Asterids, Gymnosperms, Host preference. INTRODUCTION Species of the genus Rotylenchus (Nematoda: Haplolaimidae) are migratory ectoparasites and browse on the surface of roots. The damage caused by them is usually limited to necrosis of penetrated cells (1). However, species with longer stylet penetrate to tissues more deeply and killing more cells and called as semi-endoparasites (2,3). The genus contains 97 nominal species which parasitize on a wide range of wild and cultivated plants worldwide (3).

    Theodore Payne Foundation, a non-profit plant nursery, seed source, book store, and education center dedicated to the preservation of wild flowers and California native plants. This a report for May 15, 2015. New reports will be posted each Friday through the end of May. Believe it or not, rain and snow are in the forecast for the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Yes, that means chains may be required, so check before you go. And you will want to go, as the Western dogwood (Cornus nuttalli) is in full bloom in the Giant Forest or Grant Grove. Along highway 198 through Three Rivers and around the lower elevations of the park is another spectacular tree in full bloom now—the California buckeye (Aesculus californica). Look for Sierra monkeyflower (Mimulus aurantiacus), California flannel bush (Fremontodendron californicum) and elegant madia (Madia elegans) near Potwisha and Buckeye campgrounds as well. In the Santa Monica Mountains, hike the Dead Horse Loop Trail at Topanga Canyon State Park. From the Trippet Ranch Parking area go up the paved road that goes out from the northeast corner. Cross the bridge and turn left on the marked dirt trail. The trail starts with oak woodland to your left and a meadow to your right. At the meadow's edge there are blooming purple clarkia (Clarkia purpurea), sticky gum flower (Grindelia sp.), golden star lilies (Bloomeria crocea) and lots and lots of slender tarweed (Madia sp.). When the trail heads into the chaparral there is a floral explosion of black sage (Salvia mellifera), sticky monkey flower (Mimulus aurantiacus), woolly blue curls (Trichostema lanatum), honeysuckle (Lonicera sp.), deerweed (Acmispon glaber), elderberry (Sambucus nigra ssp.

TIPSScreening transcriptome for 4-coumarate CoA ligase Salvia macrosiphon enzyme coding genes Rasool Asnafi1, Shiva Hemmati1,2,* 1Department of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, School of Pharmacy, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. 2Pharmaceutical Sciences Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. ................................................................................................................................. Abstract 4-Coumarate CoA ligase (4CL) is one of the key enzymes in the phenylpropanoid pathway, which converts cinnamic acid derivatives to active thioesters. Active thioesters are precursors of a vast number of secondary metabolites. Salvia macrosiphon as a valuable medicinal plant grows in Iran, Turkey, and Afghanistan. This plant produces pharmacologically active metabolites, including rosmarinic acid, flavo- noids (apigenin, luteolin), sesquiterpenes, and coumarins. Identification of genes encoding 4cl provides the opportunity to manipulate the biosynthetic pathways and mediate the carbon flux toward the corresponding metabolites. Mature wild type S. macrosiphon plants were collected in flowering and seed-bearing stages. In vitro cultures of S. macrosiphon were established on Murashige & Skoog (1/2 MS) medium. To increase the possibility of finding 4cl isoforms in the transcriptome, cultures were elicited by chitosan. Since the genomic sequence of S. macrosiphon

The purpose of this study is to update the list of leaf vegetable plants that are used to prepare the traditional dish sarma and to analyse the biodiversity of the species used and their status in the Turkish flora. Seventy-three taxa whose leaves are used to prepare sarma in Turkey are reported. The prevalent species are those of Rumex (11), Salvia (5), Beta and Malva (4), Alcea, Arum, Brassica, Morus, and Plantago (3). Wild herbaceous plants (69.5%) dominate. Trees (8) and shrubs (2) mostly belong to the Rosaceae, Moraceae, Betulaceae and Malvaceae. Grapevine and cabbage predominate, together with beet, dock, sorrel, horseradish, European lime tree, bean, and spinach. The use of leaves of three endemics was recorded: Centaurea haradjianii, Rumex gracilescens, and Rumex olympicus. Some toxic plants are used following preliminary treatment, including those of Arum, Convolvulus, Tussilago and Smilax species. Colocasia esculenta is a novel sarma plant that has been used in cuisine in the last decade, following its introduction to Turkey.
