This study describes the new species Astragalus oksutdagensis (A. sect. Eustales) from Kayseri, Turkey. The species is compared morphologically to the two similar species A. flavescens and A. vestitus, considering also pollen micromorphology. The geographical distribution of A. oksutdagensis, A. vestitus and A. flavescens is mapped. The phylogeneti...

Dianthus berkayii belongs to sect. Fimbriati was described and illustrated as a new species from Erzincan Province in Eastern Anatolia, Turkey. In the current study morphological, palynological, and molecular characters were compared and discussed with its closely related species. The new species is similar to D. crinitus with fimbriate corolla, li...

Background: ITS2 sequences can be used in systematic studies and proved to give reliable results in the distinguishing of Trichogramma species (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae). Correct identifcation of natural enemies forms the basis of a biological control program. The present study aimed to compare sequences of rDNA-ITS2 of Trichogramma samples w...

ITS (Internal Transcribe Spacer) REGION: A RELIABLE BARCODE FOR PHYLOGENETIC RECONSTRUCTIONS IN PLANTS

Pear ( Pyrus communis L.) stands out as a prominent fruit species in temperate regions worldwide. The Çoruh River basin, nestled in the lower Caucasus in Türkiye, serves as a valuable repository of pear germplasm. To elucidate the genetic structure of pear populations in this region, 84 village pear cultivar genotypes (land races) from six villages...

The phylogeny and taxonomy of several powdery mildews (Erysiphaceae) have been examined. Sequences of the rDNA ITS region have been retrieved from types and additional specimens, collected in Germany, Iran, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and several other countries. Erysiphe cruciferarum s. lat. has been revised and split into E. cruciferarum s. str. on Alyss...

The present study describes a new species Dorycnium vuralii (Fabaceae) from Çankırı, Türkiye. The new species is compared morphologically to the taxa of sect. Bonjeanea and sect. Dorycnium along with pollen micromorphology, leaflet, and seed micromorphology. The geographical distribution of Dorycnium vuralii is mapped. The phylogenetic relationship...

In the past several years, there has been an increasing tendency in molecular phylogenetic research of plant families to incorporate gene regions into their investigations. DNA barcoding selected as a preferred method for labeling. Multiple studies have employed different segments of the barcoding gene across diverse taxonomic hierarchies. The CBOL...

Günümüzde yedi bağımsız Türk devletinden biri olan Kazakistan 2.724.900 km² yüzölçümü ile dünyanın dokuzuncu en büyük alana sahip ülkesidir. Toprakları çoğunlukla Orta Asya‘da yer alır ve Doğu Avrupa‘ya kadar uzanır. Ülke, yaklaĢık 19 milyon nüfusa sahiptir. Kazakistan‘nın baĢlıca ekonomik gelir kaynakları; tarım, hayvancılık ve yeraltı kaynakları...

We would like to give special thanks to the excellent researchers who contributed to this work. We would like to thank the authors of the insightful studies included in this volume. Over the yea...

Molecular Clock Estimations in Plants

DNA barcoding techniques were often used in molecular phylogenetic studies to understand the relationships within genera in plants. In these studies, different barcoding gene regions were used at different taxonomic levels. CBOL working group suggested some different gene regions after many experiences for barcoding and ITS region is one of these r...

Studies addressing ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical issues frequently employ phylogenetic trees. In order to create phylogenetic trees for their studies, researchers now use megatree-based (supertree) approaches because gene-based, well-resolved phylogenies that include all species in a study area are uncommon. Reconstructing the evolut...

The major objective in pepper breeding programs is to generate high yielding novel varieties resistant to pests and diseases, tolerant to abiotic stress conditions with improved fruit quality traits including capsaicin content. Germplasm collections are important sources of variability for breeding studies. Molecular markers are important tools to...

The general purpose of the molecular systematic studies is to illuminate the ITS2 structure of the target populations, to determine its phylogenetic boundaries, and to clarify intra-species and inter-species relationships. Particularly, the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA is used in molecular systematics because...

In the present study, a new species of the genus, Tripleurospermum eskilensis (Asteraceae), is described from Central Anatolia, Turkey. The new species has been collected from Eskil region in a restricted area (Aksaray Province). It grows in salty steppe, and is closely related to T. decipiens in terms of morphological characteristics. It has also...

İnsanlığın var oluşundan itibaren insanoğlunun hayatta kalma ve varlığını sürdürebilme başarısı kültür sayesinde olmuştur. Bu başarı, yaşayarak öğrenilenleri kendi kültürlerinde koruyup yeni nesillere aktarma yeteneği ve becerisine bağlıdır. İnsanoğlu bir müddet sonra biyolojik uyum gücü ile değil, kültürü ile dünyaya egemen olmuştur. Örneğin ateş...

Molecular regions of DNA were often used to clarify the genetic relationships of plants in recent years. Particularly, the ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer-ITS1+ITS2) region was mostly suggested for molecular phylogenetic studies due to its highly repeated in number in plant genomes and large copy numbers that support PCR amplification. At all taxo...

Generally, Gundelia tournefortii is considered as the sole representative of the genus and the other species of Gundelia as synonyms. Recent studies suggest that the genus is rich with 22 species. Off these, thirteen are endemic to Turkey. To date, no comprehensive molecular study dealing with speciation exists in the genus. To address the speciati...

Fabaceae which is called pea family, is the 3ʳᵈ largest family of Angiosperms. The family consist of over 20.000 species of 700 genera with trees, shrubs, herbs all over the World. Although, many species of the family have economical values, some species especially herbs are used as forage crops like soybeans, peas, alfa alfa, cowpea, clover, etc....
