Öğe Aethionema anatolica (Brassicaceae), a new species from South Anatolia, Turkey(FINNISH ZOOLOGICAL BOTANICAL PUBLISHING BOARD, 2013) Karabacak, Osman; Ozturk, Meryem; Duran, AhmetAethionema anatolica A. Duran & M. Ozturk sp. nova (Brassicaceae) is described and illustrated from South Anatolia, Turkey. It is similar especially to A. demirizii, but differs by the habit, crenate margin of the fruits, and the style that is around the same size as the sinus.Öğe Anatomy, palynology and nutlet micromorphology of Turkish endemic Teucrium sandrasicum (Lamiaceae)(VERSITA, 2008) Dinc, Muhittin; Duran, Ahmet; Pinar, Muenevver; Ozturk, MeryemIn this study, the anatomical features of the leaf and stem, besides the pollen and nutlet characteristics of Teucrium sandrasicum are investigated. T. sandrasicum, belonging to sect. Teucrium, is an endemic perennial herb growing on serpentine around Mugla province. The anatomical studies on T. sandrasicum revealed that the stem shares the general characteristics of the Labiatae family. The leaves clearly exhibit xeromorphy due to features such as the distribution of stomata on the lower surface (hipostomatic), the occurrence of guard cells below the epidermis (xeromorphic type), inrolled margins, thick cuticle layer, thick outer epidermal cell wall, a high density of trichomes and thick palisade layer of the mesophyll. The anatomical studies showed that the upper epidermal cells of the leaf include many spherocrystals. The pollen grains are prolate, medium in size, 3-colpate with verrucate ornamentation. The nutlets are ellipsoid with a reticulate-verrucate surface. The results have proven that T. sandrasicum is different from the other species of the sect. Teucrium because of the branched trichomes on the stem and the lack of eglandular trichomes on the nutlets.Öğe Asperula anatolica (Rubiaceae), a new species from south-east Anatolia, Turkey(TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2013) Ozturk, MeryemA new species, Asperula anatolica M.Ozturk (Rubiaceae), is described from south-east Turkey.

Taxa of the genus Cicer and the out-group taxa belonging to the closest genera Phaseolus L., Vicia L., Lathyrus L. and Ononis L., which are placed in Phaseoleae, Vicieae and Ononideae tribes, respectively, were used in molecular studies in order to derive their phylogenetic relationships. Morphological, palynological and seed characters were used on the basis of 143 traits. The micromorphological characters of seed and pollen grains were revealed by SEM. Lathyrus L. and Vicia L. species were used as out-groups for numerical analysis. Ten specimens were used for the measurements of metric characters related to the morphological structures of the taxa used for statistical analysis via PAUP and NTSYS-pc packages. Phylogenetic relationships between species and populations of the same species growing in different locations and their variations were determined using molecular methods performed on regions of the Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR). DNA was isolated from the collected samples, using modified CTAB protocols. ISSR was used for phylogenetic fingerprinting. The data were analyzed with NTSYS-pc package. Standardized data were used to generate a dendrogram that revealed the phylogenetic relationships of the taxa. Geographic distribution of the Cicer taxa appears to be closely related to the Anatolian Diagonal. As a result of this study, four new endemic taxa were added and evaluated for the first time.Öğe Diplotaenia bingolensis (Apiaceae), new species from east Anatolia, Turkey(SPRINGER WIEN, 2015) Duran, Ahmet; Behcet, Lutfi; Ozturk, MeryemThe new species of Diplotaenia bingolensis M.

Both the taxonomical and the molecular characteristics of the tribes Psoraleeae (Bituminaria Heist. ex Fabr., Cullen Medik.), Vicieae (Vicia), Astragalae (Astragalus), and Cicereae (Cicer) were clearly revealed for the first time with the inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) method. The phylogenetic relationships were determined with 253 ISSR band scores and 125 quantitative morphological character measurements. The numerical and molecular data sets were analyzed with NTSYSpc and Minitab software. Based on these data, the current circumscription of the genus Psoralea was reevaluated and compared with outgroups in Turkey. Consequently, the closely related genera of Bituminaria and Cullen clearly occur in Turkey instead of the genus Psoralea.Öğe Scorzonera aksekiensis sp nov (Asteraceae) from south Anatolia, Turkey(WILEY, 2013) Duran, Ahmet; Ozturk, Meryem; Cetin, OzlemScorzonera aksekiensis A.
