Cakilcioglu, Ugur; Gür, Fehmi; Denizhan Ulusan, Musa; Türkmen, Zafer; Polat, Rıdvan
Bu çalışma 2012-2013 dönemleri arasında Espiye yerel pazarlarında ticari amaçla satışı yapılan yabani bitkiler üzerine yapılmıştır. Alan çalışmaları bitkilerin yoğun olarak toplanıldığı ve satışlarının yapıldığı alanlarda yoğunlaşmıştır. Araştırmalar sonucunda yerel pazarlarda satışı yapılan etnobotanik kullanımı olan 32 bitki taksonu tespit edilmiştir. Etnobotanik veriler halk tıbbı, bitki çayı, baharat ve gıda olarak olarak kullanılan bitkilerle ilgili verileri içermektedir. Yörede yoğun olarak kullanımı olan bitki familyaları Lamiaceae (5 takson), Rosaceae (4 takson), Polygonaceae (3 takson), Apiaceae (2 takson) and Asteraceae (2 takson) olarak kayıt edilmiştir. Yöredeki satışı yapılan etnobotanik bitkilerden baharat ve gıda (24 takson), halk tıbbı (19 takson) bitki çayı (5 takson) vb. amaçlarla kullanıldığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca bu çalışma kapsamında bitkilerin yerel ve bilimsel adları, bitki familyaları, bitkilerin kullanılan kısımları ve kullanım şekilleri alfabetik sırasıyla tablo olarak sunulmuşur

Polat, Ridvan; Cakilcioglu, Ugur; Ulusan, Musa Denizhan; Paksoy, Mehmet Yavuz
This study aims to record accumulation of knowledge on plants which are used as food by local people of Elazig that has a rich culture and a very natural environment. Field study was carried out over a period of approximately two years (2010-2011). During this period, 92 vascular plant specimens were collected. The plants were pressed in the field and prepared for identification. A total of 62 food plants belonging to 28 families were identified in the region. There is no detailed information in the literature with regard to the use of brevipes for human nutrition. It is certained that wild plants being used for nutritional purposes by human beings are also used for medicinal purposes. Highlighting the importance of flora and ethnobotanical inventory studies in terms of the protection and use of plant sources, what is required is the cultivation of endangered plant species, establishment of seedbanks for these plants, recording of their natural habitat as well as conducting studies in order to raise public awareness.

Ethnopharmacological relevance: This paper provides significant ethnobotanical information on medicinal plants in Espiye in the Black Sea Region. Recording such data calls for urgency. This is the first ethnobotanical study in which statistical calculations about plants are carried out by means of FIC method in Northern (Espiye-Giresun) part of Turkey. This study aims to identify the wild plants collected for medicinal purposes by locals of Espiye which is located in the Black Sea Region of Turkey, and to identify the uses and local names of these wild plants. Materials and methods: A field study had been carried out for a period of approximately 2 years (20122014). During this period, information about medicinal use of 55 wild and 15 cultivated plants were collected. Demographic characteristics of participants, names of the local plants, their utilized parts and preparation methods were investigated and recorded. Through face-to-face interviews, we identified and recorded demographic characteristics of the respondents. We interviewed 128 persons who are over the age of 29. The plant taxa were collected within the scope of the study; and herbarium materials were prepared. In addition, the relative significance value of the taxa was determined, and informant consensus factor (FIC) was calculated for the medicinal plants included in the study. Results: We have found out in the literature review of the plants included in our study that 70 plant taxa are already used for medicinal purposes while 3 plants are not available among the records in the literature. The most common families are Asteraceae, Rosaceae, Lamiaceae, Malvaceae, and Ericaceae. We include in our study and report for the first time the medicinal uses of Alchemilla crinita Buser, Stachys sylvatica L., and Thymus leucotrichus Hal. var. leucotrichus Hal. Names of local plants in Turkey vary especially due to vernaculars. The plants that the locals of Espiye use are called with the same or different local names in various parts of Anatolia. Conclusion: We found out that locals living in the research area use for therapeutic purpose 70 plants taxa which belong to 36 families. Turkish citizens with different ethnic backgrounds took the questionnaire. These people use these wild plants in treatment of several diseases. Comparison of the data obtained in this study with the experimental data obtained in the previous laboratory studies on the wild plants which grow in Espiye proved ethnobotanical usages to a great extent. Literature review indicated that the therapeutic plants that grow in Espiye are used in different parts of the world for the treatment of similar diseases. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Bayirli, Mehmet; Selvi, Selami; Cakilcioglu, Ugur
Fractal dimensions of leaves from Cercis canadensis L., Robinia pseudoacacia L., Amelanchier arborea (F. Michx.) Fernald, Prunus persica (L.) Batsch, Quercus alba L., Carpinus caroliniana Walter, Ficus carica L., Morus rubra L., Platanus orientalis L., and Ulmus rubra Muhl. were calculated. The values were then confirmed and compared by those obtained from box-counting method and the exponent values of density-density correlation function (first time in the literature). It is now proposed for the first time that there is a relationship between a fractal dimension of the leaf and a surface density of the image and was concluded that together with other measures, the fractal dimensions with surface density function could be used as a new approach to taxonomical study of plants.

Erdogan, Tugce; Gonenc, Tuba; Cakilcioglu, Ugur; Kivcak, Bijen
Purpose: To evaluate the fatty acid composition of six Centaurea species, viz, Centaurea behen, C. saligna, C. depressa, C. urvillei subsp. urvillei, C. urvillei subsp. hayekiana and C. aggregata subsp. aggregata, from Elazig, Turkey. Methods: Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) of the oil extracts of four Centaurea species were prepared. The fatty acid compositions of Centaurea species were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). Results: Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) in Centaurea species and subspecies ranged from 24.61 - 50.92% of their total fatty acid content, while monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) were in the range of 3.40 - 37.96% and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) 12.21 - 20.57%. Palmitic acid C 16: 0, oleic acid C 18:1 omega 9 and linoleic acid C 18:1 omega 3 were the major fatty acids in all the species. Oleic acid was the main constituent of C. urvillei subps. urvillei and C. agrregata subsp. aggregata with a content of 26.92 and 50.92%, respectively. Conclusion: The oil extracted from Centaurea species is a good source of essential fatty acids.

Hayta, Sukru; Tasar, Neslihan; Cakilcioglu, Ugur; Gedik, Osman
In this study, morphological, morphometrical, karyological and detailed pollen morphology of Ebenus haussknechtii endemic to Turkey was studied for the first time. In the morphologic study, some morphological and morphometrical features of the plant were observed and compared with the published findings in the Flora of Turkey. Karyogram and idiograms of the plant were also prepared. The chromosome number of E. haussknechtii was determined as 2n = 14 and haploid karyotype formula 5 m + 1 sm + 1M. Metaphase chromosome length ranged from 2.16 to 1.93 mu m and the total haploid chromosome length was 17.90 mu m. The results of the light microscope investigation of the pollen revealed that the pollen grains were radially symmetrical, isopolar, tricolpate and prolate. Measurement of the reticulum heterobrachate indicated their ornamentation to be reticulate. (C) 2014 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
