Abstract

In the present study, lichens and lichenicolous fungi diversity were investigated on 10 Quercus taxa found in the Marmara region and 159 lichens and 3 lichenicolous fungi taxa belonging to 57 genera were recorded from 182 localities. Of these 162 taxa, 13 taxa were recorded for the first time from the Marmara region. 132 taxa were determined on Q. cerris, 98 taxa on Q. frainetto, 91 taxa on Q. petraea, 90 taxa on Q. pubescens, 42 taxa on Q. virgiliana, 35 taxa on Q. infectoria, 27 taxa on Q. ithaburensis subsp. macrolepis, 26 taxa on Q. trojana, 14 taxa on Q. robur, and 12 taxa on Q. coccifera

Marmara bölgesinde Türkiye bulunan Quercus taksonları üzerindeki liken ve likenikol mantar çeşitiliği

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Marmara bölgesinde bulunan 10 farklı meşe taksonu üzerindeki liken ve likenikol mantar çeşitliliği incelenmiş ve 182 lokaliteden 57 cinse ait 159 liken ve 3 likenikol mantar taksonu kaydedilmiştir. Toplam 162 taksondan 13 tanesi Marmara bölgesinden ilk kez tespit edilmiştir. Liken ve likenikol mantar taksonlarının farklı meşe substratları üzerindeki sayısal dağılımı; Q. cerris 132 takson, Q. frainetto 98, Q. petraea 91, Q. pubescens 90, Q. virgiliana 42, Q. infectoria 35, Q. ithaburensis subsp. macrolepis 27, Q. trojana 26, Q. robur 14 ve Q. coccifera 12 takson şeklindedir
