Abstract

Taracaxum species are an important food source for many insects
because of their early flowering and rich supply of nectar and pollen. Taraxacum (dandelion) honey has been
characterized and is wide-spread throughout Europe. Although, Turkey, Iran,
Afghanistan and the West Himalayas have the highest species richness and
character diversities of Taraxacum,
there are still gaps of knowledge about dandelion honey. The aim of this study
was to evaluate the composition of dandelion honey which will be a new
characterization of a monofloral honey originating from Turkey.

Karahindiba Balı: Türkiye Monofloral Balları İçin Yeni Bir Kayıt

Abstract

Taracaxum
türleri erken çiçeklenme dönemleri
sebebiyle pek çok böcek için önemli bir polen ve nektar kaynağıdır. Taracaxum (karahindiba) balı Avrupa’da
üretilmekte olan ve karakterizasyonu yapılmış bir baldır. Türkiye, İran,
Afganistan ve Batı Himalayalar Taraxacum,
tür zenginliği ve karakter çeşitliliği açısından en önemli bölgelerdir. Ancak
bu bölgelerde karahindiba balı ile ilgili ciddi boşluklar bulunmaktadır. Bu
çalışmanın amacı Türkiye monofloral balları açısından yeni bir kayıt olan
karahindiba balının melissopalinolojik ve kimyasal içeriğinin
değerlendirilmesidir.
