Studies on Seed Morphology of Campanula L. Section Quinqueloculares (boiss.) Phitos (campanulaceae) in Turkey
نویسندگان
چکیده
Morphological features of seeds of 9 species of Campanula L., section Quinqueloculares (Boiss.) Phitos (Campanulaceae) which are distributed in Turkey were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Characteristics of the seeds and their surface are described and compared. Two main types and two subtypes of surface ornamentation patterns are observed. These can be considered as diagnostic characters.

Antibacterial and antitumour activities of some plants grown in Turkey
Screening of antibacterial and antitumour activities of 33 different extracts prepared with three types of solvents (water, ethanol and methanol) was conducted. The extracts were obtained from 11 different plant species grown in Turkey: Eryngium campestre L., Alchemilla mollis (Buser) Rothm., Dorycnium pentaphyllum Scop., Coronilla varia L., Onobrychis oxyodonta Boiss., Fritillaria pontica Wahl...
متن کاملIntegrating environmental, molecular, and morphological data to unravel an ice-age radiation of arctic-alpine Campanula in western North America
Many arctic-alpine plant genera have undergone speciation during the Quaternary. The bases for these radiations have been ascribed to geographic isolation, abiotic and biotic differences between populations, and/or hybridization and polyploidization. The Cordilleran Campanula L. (Campanulaceae Juss.), a monophyletic clade of mostly endemic arctic-alpine taxa from western North America, experien...
متن کاملEmbracing discordance: Phylogenomic analyses provide evidence for allopolyploidy leading to cryptic diversity in a Mediterranean Campanula (Campanulaceae) clade
The Mediterranean Basin harbors a remarkable amount of biodiversity, a high proportion of which is endemic to this region. Here, we present an in-depth study of an angiosperm species complex, in which cryptic taxonomic diversity has been hypothesized. Specifically, we focus on four currently recognized species in the Roucela complex, a well-supported clade in the Campanulaceae/Campanuloideae: C...
متن کاملThe Effect of Partial Self-incompatibility on the Breeding System of Campanula Rapunculoides L. (campanulaceae) under Conditions of Natural Pollination
The consequences of partial self-incompatibility on the breeding system of Campanula rapunculoides is considered under conditions of natural pollination. We propagated two partially self-incompatible genotypes of C. rapunculoides and established them in pollinator exclusion cages along with 18 donor plants that differed from the focal plants (recipients) in their genotype at the glucose-1-phosp...
