Abstract

In this study, the anatomical features of some taxa (Origanum sipyleum, Satureja parnassica subsp. sipylea, Sideritis sipylea, Thymus sipyleus subsp. sipyleus var. sipyleus) belonging to the Lamiaceae distributed on the Spil Mountain of Turkey were compared statistically. Lamiaceae family to which the investigated taxa belong are of high importance for their antioxidant potential, multiple pharmaceuticaluses in folk medicine. The some anatomical features of the stem were selected and measurements were taken. The data obtained from the anatomical features were evaluated statistically. By this study it has been determined that cortex length and diameter of pith are the best character pairs which represent the variations in them. Thus, the cortex length and diameter of pith can be viewed as a taxonomic character for classification of species. The results showed that investigated taxa also could be distinguished from each other not only by their morphological features but numerical anatomical characters as well.

Adını Spil Dağı’ndan Alan Lamiaceae Taksonlarının Anatomik Özelliklerinin Sayısal Olarak Karşılaştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'nin Spil Dağı’nda yayılış gösteren Lamiaceae’ye ait bazı taksonların (Origanum sipyleum, Satureja parnassica subsp. sipylea, Sideritis sipylea, Thymus sipyleus subsp. sipyleus var. sipyleus) anatomik özellikleri istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırıldı. Çalışmada incelenen taksonların da ait olduğu Lamiaceae familyası, antioksidan potansiyelleri ve halk hekimliğinde çoklu farmasötik kullanımları nedeniyle büyük önem taşımaktadır. İncelenen taksonların bazı anatomik gövde özellikleri seçilerek bunlardan anatomik ölçümler alındı. Anatomik özelliklerden elde edilen veriler istatistiksel olarak değerlendirildi. Bu çalışma ile korteks uzunluğu ve öz çapının, varyasyonları temsil eden en iyi karakter çiftleri olduğu belirlenmiştir. Böylece, korteks uzunluğu ve öz çapı, türlerin sınıflandırılması için taksonomik karakterler olarak görülebilir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, incelenen taksonların sadece morfolojik özellikleriyle değil, sayısal anatomik karakterleri ile de birbirlerinden ayırt edilebildiğini göstermiştir.
