Medicinal Plants of Kurna Village (Burdur Province)

Abstract

Plants have been among the primary natural sources used in traditional medicine, both in the past and present. Due to the many advantages they offer compared to the synthetic drugs, the interest in medicinal plants is rapidly increasing not only worldwide but also in our country. This study has been conducted with the aim of identifying natural medicinal plants in the Kurna Village and its surroundings. As a result of fieldwork conducted during the flowering periods of the plants, 40 medicinal plant taxa belonging to 39 genera from 21 families were identified. Family Asteraceae is notable having the highest number of taxa with 7 taxa, followed by Lamiaceae with 5 taxa, families Brassicaceae, Boraginaceae and Fabaceae each with 3 taxa. The scientific names, parts used and areas of use concerning the medicinal plants determined were presented. We hope that the presented data will provide guidance to local people, raise awareness on the floral diversity, add data to relevant literature.
