The application of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) can be an excellent and eco-friendly alternative to the use of chemical fertilizers. While PGPRs are often used in traditional agriculture to facilitate yield increases, their use in soilless agriculture has been limited. Soilless agriculture is growing in popularity among commercial f...

The date palm trees usin...
In this study, rooting performance of cuttings of local olive types of Northern Cyprus taken in spring and autumn seasons was investigated. Gemlik Olive cultivar was used as the control group and 14 different local olive types constituted the experimental groups. Green cuttings taken from local olive types were initially treated with 4000 ppm indol...
Seeds of 38 cucurbit, 19 melon and 8 watermelon accessions were taken from the genbank of European University of Lefke, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and Technologies. There are total 65 accessions collected from different ecological region of Northern Cyprus. Furthermore, evaluation studies of these materials have started. In the present study...
In this study, three different varieties (Paris Island, Filipus and Quintus) were grown between September 2010 and August 2011 and recorded their bolting rates, head fresh weight, head diameter and head length. Seeds were sown in the first day of each month starting from September 1, 2010 until August 1, 2011. The average head fresh weight, head di...
Lettuce is one of the most common leafy edible vegetables produced and consumed in Northern Cyprus, and it is one of the indispensable vegetables of Turkish Cypriot cuisine. Bolting and yield reductions are the most important problems associated with lettuce production in Northern Cyprus. This study aimed to determine the bolting rates, head fresh...
Surveys were conducted on the fields of faba bean culture in Turkish republic of North Cyprus (TRNC) during 2011-2013 indicated that Botrytis fabae and Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) are the diseases that cause crop loss at economic level. During the field surveys 117 infected plants that have the symptoms of both diseases were collected from 38 d...
Pomegranate fruit has been associated with a high level of nutrients and many health benefits. This study evaluated the yield and pomological characteristics of three pomegranate cultivars: Wonderful, Acco and Herskovitz grown in Cyprus conditions. Researches performed by collecting data from 17 pomegranate orchards between 2011 (4 years old) and 2...
This study was conducted to determine the quantitative characteristics of 53
hybrid melon genotypes which were obtained by single, triple, double hybridization
and to compare the genetic relationship between single, triple and double hybrids
and their parental pure lines by SSR markers.
In molecular studies, 55 Simple-sequence repeat (SSR) markers...

The consumption of wild plants gathered from nature represents an important part of human nutrition in Cyprus. Although there have been some studies, detailed ethnobotanical works in the northern part of the island are few. The aim of this study was to collect and analyse data concerning wild edible plants used as vegetables in North Cyprus. The st...
The island of Cyprus has an extremely rich flora in terms of genetic diversity and is localized on two genetic diversity centers of many cultivated plants. There are many local varieties and landraces grown for centuries in the island but they are under the risk of extinction due to the pressure of modern agriculture, especially hybrid cultivars an...
Aim of the study was to describe an in vitro method for evaluation of iron chlorosis responses of grapevine (Vitis sp.) genotypes. Nodal green segments of three rootstocks, 'Fercal', '1103 P', '1613 C' and one table grape cultivar, 'Perlette' were cultured under in vitro conditions. Three iron concentrations (9, 18, 36 mg L-1 FeNaEDTA) alone and th...
Nodal shoot segments of four grapevine genotypes well known for their Fe-chlorosis characteristic [Vitis vinifera × Vitis berlandieri Fercal, resistant; V. berlandieri × Vitis rupestris 1103 P, mid-resistant; Solonis (Vitis riparia × V. rupestris × Vitis candicans) × Othello (Vitis labrusca × V. riparia × V. vinifera) 1613 C, susceptible; V. vinife...
Almond has been one of the important traditional fruits for the TRNC. It is predominantly grown in arid and semi-arid regions of the island,either as scattered trees especially on rocky places, slopes, roadsides, field boundries, or in a limited number of almond orchards.

Kayseri Üniversitesi olarak, ATA tohumlarının yetiştirilmesi, yaygınlaştırılması ve muhafazası adına pilot üretim çalışmaları her yıl düzenli olarak gerçekleştirilmektedir. Özellikle bazı ATA tohumlarının yaygınlaştırılmasının sağlanması amacıyla, yerel yönetimlerle yapılan iş birlikleri mevcut tohumların katma değerini artırıp fide haline getirilerek üreticilere ulaştırılması sağlanmıştır. Ayrıca üretilen fidelerden elde edilen ürünlerin tohum yenilenmesi çalışmaları da yapılarak her yıl yerel tohum yetiştiriciliğinin sürdürülebilirliği sağlanmıştır. Bununla birlikte tohum yenileme çalışması amacıyla fidelerin yetiştirilmesinden elde edilen ürünler doğrudan tüketiciyle buluşması sağlanmıştır. Ancak, her geçen gün ATA tohumlarının kaybolma tehlikesi ile yüz yüze kalması konunun pilot düzeyde yapılacak uygulamaların yanı sıra, profesyonel düzeye taşınmasının gerekliliğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Mevcut durum karşısında, üniversitemiz tarafından gerçekleştirilen üretim faaliyetleri ile elde edilen fide ve tohum miktarları talebi karşılayamamaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu proje kapsamında Kayseri Üniversitemiz bünyesinde kurulacak olan ATA Tohumu Araştırma, Uygulama ve Fide Üretim Merkezinde yerli sebze tohumlarının araştırılması, katma değeri yüksek ürünlere dönüştürülmesi, üretiminin artırılması ve/veya ATA tohumlarının kullanımının yaygınlaştırılmasının önü açılmış olacaktır.
