The chromosome numbers and karyotypes of eight species the genus Allium distributed in Turkey were analyzed. These taxa are A. armerioides Boiss., orientale stamineum tuncelianum (Kollmann) Özhatay, B.Mathew & Şiraneci, subakaka Razyfard Zarre, muratozelii Armağan, dumanii Koyuncu Koçyiğit colchicifolium Boiss. Four them (A. armerioides, tuncelianum, dumanii) endemic Turkey. all studied determi...

A new combination in the rank of subspecies, Campanula tridentata Schreb. subsp. ruprechtii (Boiss.) Ogan., distributed Armenia, Nakhchivan Republic and Iran is published. The lectotype name designated.

Matthiola incana (Brassicaceae) is an important ornamental plant, which is used as cut flower, pot plant, and landscape. Traditionally, it is propagated via seeds, but interest is given in vegetative propagation of parental lines as well as superior single plants. Micropropagation by organogenesis is an efficient in vitro propagation method for Matthiola incana. Starting from seeds, apical bud ...

Piperazirum, isolated from Arum palaestinum Boiss, was originally assigned as r-3,c-5-diisobutyl-c-6-isopropylpiperazin-2-one. The reported structure was synthesised diastereoselectively using a key nitro-Mannich reaction to set up the C5/C6 relative stereochemistry. The structure was unambiguously assigned by single crystal X-ray diffraction but the spectroscopic data did not match those repor...
