M.Sc. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. No quotation from it should be published without the written consent of the author and information derived from it should be acknowledged. Being a thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Durham Department of Biological Sciences 1997 2 JUL isgg ABSTRACT The frugivory and seed dispersal by carnivores were studied using a combination of vegetation surveys, fruit production counts and analysis of faeces distribution and content. The study site is situated close to the Greek-Bulgarian border within a protected area. The habitat comprises of a mixed forest of beech, pine, oak and spruce which is occasionally interrupted by patches of fruiting trees. Faecal samples were collected on five permanent transects which were sampled monthly between May and October of 1993 and 1994. Fruiting plant density was found to be sUghtly higher in the forest than along forest roads, however the species diversity was much higher on the latter. In some cases, immature fruiting plants were found on transects with no mature plants in the vicinity. Availability of ripe fruit was found to increase steadily between May and September. There was a significant difference between the numbers of faeces deposited by the carnivores, with fox being the most numerous, followed by marten, bear and wolf. There was spatial and temporal variation in the number of faeces deposited. Nevertheless, there was no variation between different altitudinal zones. Martens were found to defecate more often on stones when compared with the other carnivores. The analysis of fruit consumption revealed that bears were the most frugivorous carnivores followed by foxes, wolves and martens on the basis of frequency of consumption. The temporal availability of each ripe fruit species coincided with their consumption by the carnivores in most of the cases. A number of seed species were deposited at altitudes where the plants do not normally grow. Foxes dispersed the highest numbers of seeds in the study area and bears were second as they deposited large-size faeces which contained many seeds. Of the dispersed seeds, those of Rubus sp., Rosa sp. and Fragaria vesca were deposited in the highest numbers. Only a smaU number fraction of seeds were damaged through handling by carnivores.

  • Resilience at the Border: Traditional Botanical Knowledge Among Macedonians and Albanians Living in Gollobordo, Eastern Albania
    Pieroni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2014, 10:31 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/10/1/31 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Resilience at the border: traditional botanical knowledge among Macedonians and Albanians living in Gollobordo, Eastern Albania Andrea Pieroni1*, Kevin Cianfaglione2, Anely Nedelcheva3, Avni Hajdari4, Behxhet Mustafa4 and Cassandra L Quave5,6 Abstract Background: Ethnobotany in South-Eastern Europe is gaining the interest of several scholars and stakeholders, since it is increasingly considered a key point for the re-evaluation of local bio-cultural heritage. The region of Gollobordo, located in Eastern Albania and bordering the Republic of Macedonia, is of particular interest for conducting ethnobiological studies, since it remained relatively isolated for the larger part of the 20th Century and is traditionally inhabited by a majority of ethnic Macedonians and a minority of Albanians (nowadays both sharing the Muslim faith). Methods: An ethnobotanical survey focused on local food, medicinal, and veterinary plant uses was conducted with 58 participants using open and semi-structured interviews and via participant observation. Results: We recorded and identified 115 taxa of vascular plants, which are locally used for food, medicinal, and veterinary purposes (representing 268 total plant reports). The Macedonian Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) was greater than the Albanian TEK, especially in the herbal and ritual domains. This phenomenon may be linked to the long socio-cultural and linguistic isolation of this group during the time when the borders between Albania and the former Yugoslavia were completely closed. Moreover, the unusual current food utilisation of cooked potatoes leaves, still in use nowadays among Macedonians, could represent the side effect of an extreme adaptation that locals underwent over the past century when the introduction of the potato crop made new strategies available for establishing stable settlements around the highest pastures.

The wood anatomy of these taxa is crucially important to understand their nature and formation. Wood anatomy is also important in the Old World because of having wooden parts in archaeological sites. A few wood anatomy books including the species of the eastern Mediterranean basin have been published. This book aims to make a contribution to the wood anatomy world by presenting the wood anatomical characteristics of some species of the eastern Mediterranean basin, mainly of Turkey.

    The 2016 WEI International Academic Conference Proceedings Boston, USA AN ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF ROSACEAE TAXA IN TURKEY Dogan A., Bulut G., Senkardes I., Tuzlacı E. Marmara University, Faculty of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany, İstanbul, Turkey. Abstract Rosaceae is one of the richest families in the flora of Turkey. It is also one of the most important families that are used in traditional therapy in Turkey. The aim of this study was revising Rosaceae family plants that are used as folk medicines in Turkey based on our local ethnobotanical excursions and scientific literature records. The ethnopharmacological information was obtained through open ended and semi-structured interviews with the local people. The specimens of the folk medicinal plants were collected during the field works and then identified. In addition, the scientific literature records on the subject were revised. Our investigations and the literature records yielded that 107 taxa of Rosaceae are used in therapy as folk medicines in Turkey. Among them, Rosa canina, Cydonia oblonga, Mespilus germanica, Crataegus monogyna subsp. monogyna, Crataegus aronia var. aronia and Rubus sanctus are the most popular medicinal plants and they are used in many localities of Turkey. The plants are mostly used for the digestive, urinary, circulatory, and respiratory system diseases. Keywords: Rosaceae, Medicinal Plants, Ethnobotany, Turkey Introduction Ethnobotanical studies are very important to reveal the past and present culture about the plants in the world. Since the ancient times people have used the plants as a source of medicine. Around 80% of general population in the world use plants to treat several illnesses. Medicinal plants are an important source of current drugs and about 25% of the drugs prescribed worldwide come from plants.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES European plum crops have a significant economic importance in our country and molecular genetics might be useful in solving many problems that arise during commercial production. European plums belong to the genus Prunus of the family Rosaceae and thereby all species show gametophytic self-incompatibility system. Plums may have been the first species among all the fruits to attract human interest. This group contains 20-40 species that are distributed in different parts of the world. European, Asian and American plums can be distinguished by their origin. Domestic (or European) plum (Prunus domestica L.) cultivars are the most widespread in the world. P. domestica is a hexaploid species (2n=6×=48), therefore several theories of its origin have emerged.

  • Taxonomy of the Genus Prunus L. (Rosaceae) in Turkey
    Turk J Bot 24 (2000) 187-202 © T†BÜTAK Research Article Taxonomy of the Genus Prunus L. (Rosaceae) in Turkey Ali A. D…NMEZ, Þinasi YILDIRIMLI Hacettepe University, Faculty of Science, Department of Biology, 06532 Beytepe, Ankara-TURKEY Received: 05.02.1999 Accepted: 04.02.2000 Abstract: The taxonomy of the genus Prunus L. in Turkey is studied in detail. According to morphological characters, descriptions of the species have been evaluated and completed. P. kurdica Fenzl ex Fritsch, P. cocomilia Ten. var. puberula (Schneider) Browicz and P. divaricata Ledeb. subsp. ursina (Kotschy) Browicz are reduced to synonyms. A new key for the identification of the species has been prepared. Illustrations and distribution maps of particular species in Turkey were added to other information. Furthermore, data concerning habitat, altitude, flowering and fruiting time, distribution, chromosome numbers and taxonomic discussion for some species are given. Three new synonyms are proposed here. Palynological and anatomical results of many samples are discussed. Key Words: Prunus, Rosaceae, Revision, Flora of Turkey.
