Natural distribution areas of crab apple (Eriolobus trilobatus), some morphological, ecological and ethnobotanical properties: The case of Antalya province

Abstract

A wild fruit, crab apple (Eriolobus trilobatus (Labill. ex Poiret) M. Roem.), is a woody species that is limited distribution, resistant to drought, suitable for landscaping and has fruit flavored. In this study, the distribution areas of crab apple trees naturally found in Antalya province, some location and tree characteristics (climatic characteristics, soil characteristics, floristic structure, general phenological development, tree height and diameter measurements, crown shape, biotic and abiotic factor effects) and ethnobotanical use was investigated. It is observed that the species is rarely found in Antalya and it is distributed in neutral, chalky, salt-free and high-sand soils in pine and oak forests, at 710-1400 m altitude. It has been reported that the leaves and fruits are consumed against diseases such as heart diseases, sugar, asthma and gastritis, but they have lost their old importance today. It is thought that conservation of crab apple trees, which have ecocultural importance, increase their natural populations and be evaluated in different areas.
