- MakaleYalnız künye2019Scopus SJRQ2An ethnobotanical survey of medicinal plants in Karliova (Bingol-Turkey)
Nadiroglu, Muharrem; Behçet, Lutfi; Çakilcioglu, Ugur
This study aims to identify wild plants collected for medical purposes by the local people of Karliova District located in the Eastern Anatolia region of Turkey and to determine the uses and local names of these plants. A field study had been carried out for a period of approximately 4 years (2013-2016). During this period, 99 vascular plant specimens were collected. Among them, 91 species are wild and 8 species are cultivated plants. Demographic characteristics of participants, names of the local plants, their utilized parts and preparation methods were investigated and recorded. 99 plants were found to be used for medical purposes before in the literature analysis of the plants used in our study, while 9 plants were found to have no literature records. In Turkey, local plant names display differences especially due to local dialects. The plants used in Karliova are known by the same or different local names in various parts of Anatolia. In the research area, local people were found to use 99 plants from 26 families for curative purposes. The medicinal uses of Stenotaenia macrocarpa Freyn & Sint., Inula helenium L., Scorzonera incisa DC., Tripleurospermum caucasicum (Willd.) Hayek, Astragalus chamaephaca Freyn, Geranium libanoticum Schenk, Rhinanthus serotinus subsp. aestivalis (N.W.Zinger) Dostal, Verbascum songaricum Schrenk. and Bunium elegans (Fenzl) Freyn that we found were used in our study area and recorded for the first time. These plants, used for the treatment of various diseases, are abundantly found in this region. Drying of the medicinal plants enabled the local people to use them in every season of the year.

Mükemre, Muzaffer; Behçet, Lutfi; Çakilcioglu, Ugur
This study aims to record accumulation of knowledge on plants which are used as food by native people of Catak (Van, Turkey) that has a rich culture and a very natural environment. In addition, the medical uses of these plants were compiled from the literature. Study area was located on the East of Anatolian diagonal, in the Eastern Anatolia Region. Field study was carried out over a period of approximately two years (2010-2012). During this period, 82 vascular plant taxa were collected. The plants were pressed in the field and prepared for identification. A total of 82 food plants belonging to 28 families were identified in the region. In the study being conducted, use of wild plants as food points out interest of people in Catak in wild plants. The fact that a large proportion of edible plants are also being used for medicinal purposes indicates that the use of wild plants has a high potential in the region. The present study shows that further ethnobotanical investigations are worthy to be carried out in Turkey, where most of knowledge on popular food plants are still to discover. In Turkey, the number of ethnobotanic studies is ever-increasing. However, traditional uses of many wild plants have not been recorded yet. In terms of food safety, the adverse effects that may arise due to the use of wild plants without sufficient knowledge must be reported to the native people.

Korkmaz, Mustafa; Karakus, Sinem; Selvi, Selami; Çakilcioglu, Ugur
This survey was conducted in Uzumlu district and its surrounding villages in order to determine the useful plants consumed for different ethnobotanical purposes such as animal fodder, ornamental plant, good, fuel, and dye by the local people living in the area between 2010 and 2011 summer vegetation periods. Totally 77 traditional uses of 64 plant taxa were determined at the end of the study. The biggest families with the numbers of taxa were Fabaceae (10), Asteraceae (9), Rosaceae (6), Salicaceae (4) Brassicaceae, Poaceae, and Liliaceae (3). All parts of 42 plants, stems of 11 plants, flowers of 6 plants, branches of 5 plants, seeds of 3 plants, fruits of 3 plants, aerial parts of 2 plants, fruit exocarp of 2 plants, and root of 1 plant were determined to be used for different purposes. In addition, local names and ethnobotanical aspects of totally 17 taxa (26.5 %) were presented firstly in this study. East Anatolia is a very important region of Turkey in terms of plant diversity, and many studies have been conducted on the traditional uses of plants; but, the least have been carried out in Erzincan province. Because of that, this study was conducted in the area.

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.

Kutlu, Banu; Buyukisik, Baha
zschia amphiarys were investigated under continuous-light period and batch culture conditions. The optimum temperature and light intensities were found as 18 degrees C and 52 mu mol/m(2)s (saturasyon light), respectively. mu(max) and K-s values estimated for each nutrient were obtained as follows: ammonia for 1.528 day(-1) 2.959 mu g-at- NH4+-N/L, nitrate 1.22 day(-1), 7.01 mu g-at NO3- -N/L, phosphate 1.767 and 1.172 day(-1) 5.07 and 0.460 mu g-at PO4-(3)-P/L, silicate 1.141 day(-1) and 0,499 mu g-at Si/L. Carrying capacity values estimated for each nutrients were obtained as follows: nitrate 113,7 mu g chl a/L, 190.11 phosphate 113.7 mu g chl a/L, 1.798. Nitrogen limiting nutrients was found as in this study.
