(CARYOPHYLLACEAE) TAXA FROM TURKEY Derya METE Ankara University Graduate School of Natural and Applied Sciences Department of Biology Supervisor: Prof.Dr. Nur Münevver PINAR Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr.Ergin HAMZAOĞLU In this study, pollen morphological features of 100 specimens belonging to 89 taxa of the genus Dianthus L. (Caryophyllaceae) in Turkey were investigated by using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), described and compared. The pollen grains are radially symetrical, apolar rarely isopolar, pantopolyporate and spheroidal. The exine ornamentation is scabrate, scabrate-perforate and scabrate- perforate- foveolate. Ornamentation among spinules are psilate or granulate. The pollen grains are prominent or sunken. The exine is subtectate. Sexine is thicker than nexine. The number of spinules in 10 µm² ranges between 9-28 and punctum number 1-23. The number of pore varies between 12 ± 3 to 24 ± 3 in taxa. According to pollen characteristics, phylogenetic relationship between taxa was determined by using UPGMA method. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted for identification of valuable pollen morphological characters used for Dianthus taxonomy. The pollen diameter (D), distance between pores (C), number of spinules and punctum number were found to be important characters in the separation of taxa. The detailed pollen morphology study contributed to the solution of the systematic problems of the genus Dianthus.

Mačukanović-Jocić1,*, Snežana V. Jarić2 and Mića A. Mladenović1 1 Department of Agrobotany, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Zemun, Serbia 2 Department of Ecology, Institute for Biological Research „Siniša Stanković“, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: The pollen morphology of Dianthus petraeus (Caryophyllaceae), which is endemic to the Balkans, has been examined by both light and scanning electron microscopy in order to provide taxonomically valuable characters that might be used in the classification of the Caryophyllaceae, as well as to contribute to the pollen atlas of Serbian apiflora. The pol- len grains of D. petraeus are radially symmetrical, apolar, spheroidal and medium-sized. The mean of the pollen diameter is 45.5±1.4 µm. The sculpturing pattern of exine is microechinate-microperforate, and the tectum is covered with minute echini averaging 0.8±0.1 µm in length, more or less evenly distributed between the perforations. The microechini average number per sample area of 5 µm x 5 µm is 3.2±0.6. In view of the number, position and type of the apertures, the grains are polypantoporate, with about 13 operculate pores, averaging 6.4±0.7 µm in diameter. Each operculum is covered with 4-6 conical spinules, which are longer than those on the exine surface. The obtained palynological results provide information that contribute towards a better understanding of the taxonomic status of D.

Journey time was just under three hours and once we had changed currency into the local lek and collected our luggage, we were met by our genial local guide Ardi. He was very knowledgeable on the history and culture of Albania and during our two-hour drive to Berat, informed us about many things Albanian. We were struck by the proliferation of petrol stations here! As we arrived at the Mangalemi Hotel in historic Berat we were treated to a large meal just before bed time! Day 2 Wednesday 31st May Divjaka-Karavasta National Park & Berat As we didn’t get to bed until gone midnight, we had breakfast at 7.30am looking over the cobbled road in glorious warm sunshine. The food choice was good and the rooms comfortable. Red-rumped Swallows were seen by the hotel with more familiar Barn Swallow and House Martin. We were then ready for our first trip out of Berat with a two-hour drive to the Karavasta Lagoon on the coast to the north-west.

The middle of June is a good time to visit this part of Bulgaria as the mountain roads and passes are mostly clear of snow and the alpine flora is at its best. We were able to visit some high-altitude sites, many of them above the tree-line, where we found fascinating alpine flowers growing in profusion. We enjoyed pleasant walks through forests of native firs and pines where the flora, and the birds and insects, were of great interest. Travelling through the largely unspoilt countryside gave us the chance to see the type of agriculture still practiced here. White Storks are a still- familiar sight in Bulgaria, with their large nests being seen in many of the villages. There was time to visit the extraordinary Rila Monastery, a world heritage site, and to explore some of the quiet villages and towns.

    CORVINUS UNIVERSITY OF BUDAPEST FACULTY OF HORTICULTURAL SCIENCE MODERN HORTICULTURE BOTANY Authors: Zsolt Erős-Honti (Chapter 1, 2, 3, 4) Mária Höhn (Chapter 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) Chapter I.: Plant cell (Citology) 1.1. The concept of the cell: elaboration and changes of the cell theory Today, generally accepted is the fact that all living creatures consist of cells. However, till the middle of the 17th century, researchers were not aware that all organisms would be composed of such units. In the 1650‘s, Jan Swammerdam, Dutch naturalist observed oval bodies in the blood and later he also discovered that the frog embryo consisted of small orbicles. For the very first time, plant cells were found by an English polyhistor, Robert Hooke in 1663 when examining the cork of woody plants. In his work Micrographia he named the observed structures (resembling the cells of the honeycomb) ‗cellula‘ (―cubicle‖, ―compartment‖), thus the denomination of cells themselves also dates back to him. (Although he had thought that the described ‗cellulae‘ were small water conducting tubes of the plant, and later it turned out that he only had observed the mere cell walls of dead cells in his microscope, his naming has remained ever since.) After the first observations, 175 more years passed until the cell concept was generalized to all the known living beings. In 1838, Mathias Jakob Schleiden, a German botanist discussed his observations with Theodor Schwann, a German physiologist in 1838 after that Schleiden determined cellular organization in plants, while Schwann did the same for animals. They published their common observations one year later (1839) in Schwann‘s book, where they also gave the points of the classic cell theory: 1.
