Abstract

The genus Hypericum
(Hypericaceae), inclusive about 450 species, has spread in various parts of the
world. The members of this species have been used for centuries as traditional
medicinal plants. Turkey is an important gene center for the genus Hypericum which represented by nearly
100 taxa grouped under 19 sections. Among
them, 45 species are endemic. The
genus is known as “sari kantaron, kantaron, binbirdelik otu, mayasil otu”  and used the treatment of burns, wounds,
haemorroids, diarrhorea and ulcers in Turkish traditional medicine.

Thanks to
this study was collected together the studies on endemic Hypericum species in Turkey.

Türkiye’den Endemik Hypericum Türleri Üzerinde Çalışmalar

Abstract

Yaklaşık 450 tür içeren Hypericum (Hypericaceae) cinsi, dünyanın çeşitli
bölgelerine yayılmıştır. Bu türün üyeleri yüzyıllardır geleneksel şifalı
bitkiler olarak kullanılmaktadır. Türkiye, 19 bölüm altında gruplanmış yaklaşık
100 taksonun temsil ettiği Hypericum (Hypericaceae) cinsi için önemli bir gen
merkezidir. Bunlar arasında 45 tür endemiktir. Bu bitki cinsi, “sari kantaron,
kantaron, binbirdelik otu, mayasil otu” olarak bilinir ve Türk geleneksel
tıbbında yanıklar, yaralar, hemorroidler, diyare ve ülserlerin tedavisinde
kullanılır.

Bu çalışma sayesinde Türkiye'deki endemik Hypericum türleri ile ilgili
çalışmalar bir araya toplanmıştır.
