Ethnoecology of wild mints in Turkey
Genus Mentha is represented by 15 taxa in Turkey, most common being Mentha longifolia, M. suaveolens, M. pulegium and M. aquatica. All are perennial herbs, flowering in summer and reproducing with the help of seeds as well as vegetatively. These taxa are widely used by locals as condiment as well as for the preparation of mint tea aginst flue, lung and stomach disorders, whooping cough, and as ...

متن کاملSeed size variation and predation of seeds produced by wild and crop-wild sunflowers.
The movement of pollen between crop and wild sunflowers (both Helianthus annuus) has led to concerns about the possible introduction of crop transgenes into wild populations. The persistence of crop traits in wild populations will depend in part on the relative fitness of crop-wild hybrid vs. wild plants. Using seeds from two large experimental field plots, we found that seeds produced by crop-...
متن کاملPenile Injuries in Wild and Domestic Pigs.
In boars, sexually motivated mounting can not only cause problems such as lameness, but penile injuries are also reported. The relevance of penis biting in boars is discussed controversially, but reliable data is missing. In the present study, boars ( n = 435) and barrows ( n = 85) from experimental farms were therefore evaluated for scars, fresh wounds and severe injuries of the penis. Similar...
متن کاملPredation-associated differences in sex linkage of wild guppy coloration.
Evolutionary theory predicts that the sex linkage of sexually selected traits can influence the direction and rate of evolutionary change, and also itself be subject to selection. Theory abounds on how sex-specific selection, mate choice, or other phenomena should favor different types of sex-linked inheritance, yet evidence in nature remains limited. Here, we use hormone assays in Trinidadian ...
