The contributions of taksonomical characters, echological characteristics and studies for seed germination of endemic Chamaecytisus drepanolobus (Boiss.) Rothm. (Fabaceae)

Abstract

In this study, Chamaecytisus drepanolobus (Boiss.) Rothm. where distrubition around Adana, Mersin and Hatay provinces is investigated from taksonomical and echological sides and also are experimented on seed germination. Our research material were collected Mersin-Çamlıyayla (Namrun) on Cilician Taurus (Mersin, South Anatolia,Turkey). The individual numbers are too low in this area from structuring pressure. Our collected material are shown important differences from description of this species. This situation are adhered to lack of description of this species in addition to showing high variation in Chamaecytisus genus.
