A New Natural Hybrid of Convolvulus (Convolvulaceae) from Central Anatolia, Turkey

Candan Aykurt; Hüseyin Sümbül

Convolvulus x turcicus C. Aykurt & Sümbül, a new natural hybrid between C. holosericeus subsp. holosericeus and C. compactus from central Anatolia, Turkey, is described and illustrated. The morphological characteristics of C. x turcicus are compared with those of its parents. The pollen characteristics of C. x turcicus and its parents were examined by means of light microscopy and SEM.

The first specimens of Allium elmaliense were collected in Elmal? (Antalya/Turkey) in 2001 and were described as new species in 2004. However, Allium elmaliense was claimed as synonym of Allium cyrilli in 2006. This study was undertaken to reveal the differences between these taxa utilizing morphological, palynological, and chromosome characters and genomic differences based on the DNA analyses along with the ecological preference studies conducted during 2006 and 2011. The results clearly indicated differences between these two taxa in terms of morphological characters, pollen, seed surfaces and niche preferences. Chromosome morphology and Td-DAMD-PCR fingerprinting studies revealed that Allium elmaliense Deniz & Sümbül is a distinct species and not a synonym of A. cyrilli Ten.

Hacer (Bakır) Sert; Candan Aykurt; Hüseyin Sümbül

Albugo convolvulacearum (Otth.) Kuntze on Convolvulus pentapetaloides L. and C. siculus L. subsp. siculus, and Peronospora trigonellae Gäum. on Trigonella cariensis Boiss., were collected for the first time in Turkey. The fungi species, including their macro- and microscopic features and distributions, are described.

A new species of Dianthus (Caryophyllaceae) from Antalya, South Anatolia, Turkey.

İsmail Gökhan Deniz; Candan Aykurt; İlker Genç; Ahmet Aksoy

Abstract Dianthus multiflorus from Gazipaşa (Antalya), south Anatolia (Turkey), is described as a new annual species with verrucose calyx. The morphological differences from the species within the same group with Dianthus multiflorus, which are Dianthus aydogdui, Dianthus cyri and Dianthus tripunctatus, are discussed. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) threat category and observations on the ecology of the populations are noted. The karyology and seed micromorphology of Dianthus multiflorus and Dianthus tripunctatus were examined by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.

Resurrection of Ornithogalum brevipedicellatum (Asparagaceae) with morphological and molecular data

Candan Aykurt; İsmail Gökhan Deniz; Duygu Sari; Mecit Vural; Hüseyin Sümbül

Abstract This study evaluates Ornithogalum brevipedicellatum, which was previously accepted as a synonym of O. oligophyllum, as a separate distinct species and discusses the similarities and differences between O. brevipedicellatum and its related species (O. oligophyllum and O. pamphylicum). Similarities and differences among these species were identifi ed by morphological and molecular studies. The leaf morphology and inflorescence of O. brevipedicellatum and O. pamphylicum are similar to each other, and in terms of these features, they show differences from O. oligophyllum. Some diagnostic characteristics are quite different in O. brevipedicellatum and O. pamphylicum, such as the size of tepals, length of fruiting pedicels and style. Morphological data were supported by the results obtained from molecular studies. According to a dendrogram obtained by molecular studies, O. brevipedicellatum and O. pamphylicum are similar. O. oligophyllum is more closely related to O. pyrenaicum used as an out-group. Additionally, the seeds of O. brevipedicellatum were examined with the use of scanning electron microscopy
