Studies of ethnobotanical usages in south-eastern Turkey are rare. To widen this field knowledge, we conducted an study Midyat (Mardin Province), Turkey. The was completed during three years (2007–2010). Our aim to document the uses local plants and make inventory uncommon using qualitative interviews. During studies, 368 voucher specimens were collected investigated area. Ninety-two traditionally used plant species reported from surrounding vicinities Among 92 taxa (129 usages), 35% for...

A brief questionnaire, referring to vernacular name, plant description, providing specimens plants brooms, details on their use has been prepared applied. total number species...
Turkey has the largest coastal area in Mediterranean, possesses an extraordinarily rich flora, and a great traditional knowledge. This diversity of plants naturally affects use is reflected Turkish cuisine. Consequently, Mediterranean Diet (whose typical components are wild greens) constitutes one important elements For this reason, aim study was to determine consumption edible green for Aegean Region establish similarities or differences from other regions cuisine Basin. compiles evaluates...
The purpose of this study is to determine the present levels atmospheric heavy metal pollution in area Kazdagi Mountain Aegean region western part Turkey.Twenty-five different plants were selected as potential biomonitors trace elements including nickel, iron, zinc, lead, cadmium, and manganese (µg g -1 , dry weight).The samples collected from two heights Mt.Kazdagi.Atomic absorption spectrometry was used concentrations elements.The mean determined at 600 m altitude ranged 0.107 0.442, 0.269...
This study was conducted in order to exhibit some of the ecological and economical attributes Vitex agnus-castus, a typical Mediterranean plant. The two different stages. At first, soil samples V. agnus-castus were collected from 38 localities Western Anatolian part Turkey during flowering investigate properties. It observed that this plant generally prefers loamy-textured, neutral, slightly alkaline soils poor calcium carbonate, containing varying amounts organic matter, moderate rich...
The increase in industrial activities and human population the high urbanization study area have made one of most rapidly developing areas Turkey.

The aim of this study was to determine the level heavy metals such as copper, iron, manganese, zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium and chromium concentrated in Juglans regia bark leaf samples from different localities Artvin, Turkey. Analysis Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cd Cr carried out by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES; Perkin Elmer, Optima 8000 DV). Statistical significance determined analysis variance (ANOVA). comparisons were performed order whether there any...
Malva sylvestris is a widely consumed edible-medicinal plant with natural distribution all around the world. The aim of this study to determine concentration levels heavy metals, such as cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, manganese, nickel, lead, and zinc, in M. samples from different local markets province Izmir, Turkey. analyses metals Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn was realized by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. At end study, mean concentrations determined for...
The selection of leaves for sarma is the result human experience and observation, transmission traditional knowledge in areas with different species richness. Seventy-three taxa whose are used to prepare Turkey reported. prevalent from Rumex (11), Salvia (5), Beta Malva, (4), Alcea, Arum, Brassica, Morus, Plantago (3). Wild herbaceous plants (69.5%) dominate. Trees (8) shrubs (2) mostly belong Rosaceae, Moraceae, Betulaceae Malvaceae. Grapevine cabbage predominate, together beet, dock,...
THE MAIN objective of the study was to determine cadmium (Cd) concentrations in vegetables grown soil irrigated with canal water and sewage water. The samples were analysed by using atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). mean Cd ranged between 1.153-2.294mg/kg (mg/kg) from 0.789 1.575, 0.210 0.423, 0.264 0.523, 0.203 0.404, 0.169 0.334, 0.223 0.443, 0.723 1.443 0.344 1.450mg/kg for Raphanus sativus, Brassica rapa, Zingiber officinale, Capsicum baccatum, frutescens, annuum, Solanum...
