Elymus sosnowskyi, a rare endemic species known from East Anatolia, Turkey, was first collected by D. Sosnowsky in 1912. After that it has been collected only one other time, by F. Sorger in 1981. During the "Taxonomic revision of tribe Triticeae in Turkey" project, which was supported by TUBITAK, E. sosnowskyi was recollected from 3 populations in Oltu and Narman (A8 Erzurum, Turkey) in 2007 and 2008. The present study aimed to provide detailed diagnostic characters of this rare endemic species, including its morphological, anatomical, and palynological features. Moreover, the amended and expanded description, distribution, phenology, and ecology of this rare species are provided, along with its conservation status.

Pseudophleum anatolicum, a New Endemic Species of Pseudophleum (Poaceae) from East Anatolia, Turkey Doğan, Musa; Sinan, Ali (2015-07-01) Pseudophleum anatolicum (Poaceae: Poeae), a new species collected from Bingol Province in East Anatolia, Turkey, is described and illustrated as the second species of the genus ever discovered. The new species is distinguished from Pseudophleum gibbum by its larger spikelets and floral parts, rather longer acuminate ligules and anthers, as well as its phytogeography.
Genetic Diversity Pattern of Salix alba Populations in a Fragmented River Ecosystem in Eastern Mediterranean Özdemir Değirmenci, Funda; Acar, Pelin; Kaya, Zeki (null; 2016-01-13) The genus Salix L. is represented with more than 500 species in the world and 28 of species are found naturally in Turkey. The species of the genus have been widely used for bioenergy and phytoremediation. Salix alba like many other willow species is with great renewable energy potentiali and important component of an healthy riparian ecosystem as an indicator species in major river ecosystems in Turkey. With this study, it was aimed to provide information for efficient conservation, management and util...
Genetic differentiation of Liquidambar Orientalis Mill. varieties with respect to matK region of chloroplast genome Özdilek, Aslı; Kaya, Zeki; Department of Biology (2007) Liquidambar L. genus is represented with mainly 4 species in the world and one of these species, Turkish sweet gum (Liquidambar orientalis Mill.) which is a relictendemic species is naturally found in only southwestern Turkey, mainly in Muğla Province. The limited distribution of species with two disputed varieties (var. integriloba Fiori and var. orientalis) and increased anthropogenic threats to its genetic resources signify the importance of studying genetic diversity in the species to have better conser...
Haplotype frequency analysis of Turkish Salix L. (Salicaceae), Kaya, Zeki (null; 2018-01-13) The genus Salix L. is represented by more than 500 species in the world where 27 species are naturally found in Turkey. This genus has been commonly used as biomass production for energy, phytoremediation and pharmacological products. The objective of this study is to estimate the haplotype frequency analysis of native willow species in Turkey. The sequence data are obtained from non-coding (trnL) and coding (matK and rbcL) cpDNA gene regions of Salix species (24 species and one hybrid). Results showed that...
Typhlonesticus gocmeni sp n., a new cave-dwelling blind spider species from the Aegean region of Turkey (Araneae, Nesticidae) Ribera, Carles; Elverici, Mert; Kunt, Kadir Bogac; ÖZKÜTÜK, RECEP SULHİ (Pensoft Publishers, 2014-01-01) A new species of the troglobitic spider genus Typhlonesticus is described from specimens found in Keloglan Cave (Denizli Province, Dodurgalar Town), Turkey. Typhlonesticus gocmeni sp. n. is described on the basis of both sexes; and its phylogenetic relationships with closely related European genera and species are discussed based on morphological and molecular data (the cox1, rrnL and H3 genes). Three new combinations are proposed: Typhlonesticus idriacus (Roewer, 1931), comb. n., Typhlonesticus morisii (Br...
