Genetic diversity of Crocus antalyensis B. Mathew (Iridaceae) and a new subspecies from southern Anatolia
No full textCrocus antalyensis B. Mathew is a bulbous plant endemic to Turkey. It is morphologically variable within the western part of Anatolia. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) marker system was used to detect genetic variation among the Crocus taxa. Twenty-two primer combinations were used to screen for polymorphism among the samples. Genetic variation ranged from 0.44 to 0.69. We demonstrated the efficiency of the AFLP marker system for discriminating between individual C. antalyensis specimens. A high level of genetic variation was present among C. antalyensis specimens collected from different locations in Turkey. We also observed that C. antalyensis subspp. are genetically distinct from their relative Crocus flavus Haw. subsp. dissectus Baytop & B. Mathew. A new subspecies of C. antalyensis B. Mathew from southern Turkey is described. It is characterized by striped outer perianth segments, waist-shaped flowers, and glabrous throat of the perianth. A composite image of the new subspecies is presented.Research Fund of Istanbul University, Istanbul, TurkeyIstanbul University [4155]; Turkish Research CouncilTurkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK) [108G096]The first author appreciates Helmut Kerndorff and Eric Pasche for sharing of their knowledge of the genus Crocus.

Companions on the Journey: Symbolic Interaction in Helping Relationships and the Development of Spirituality For Young Adult Catholics
No full textMany young adults experience a shift in faith understanding and experiences after adolescence. This study sought to uncover the communicative nature of helping relationships in spiritual contexts. The author explored spiritual helping relationships as a comparative form of mentoring, placing focus on models offered by Buell (2004). Utilizing Symbolic Interaction, the study examined co-created meaning and developed meaning among young adults and helpers. The qualitative project utilized online open-ended survey instruments specifically designed for young adult Catholics and helpers which examined the value, role, and scope of spirituality in the lives of participants. Emergent themes included prayer life, discussion of spirituality, spiritual influences, and communication in helping relationships. Utilizing definitions of mentoring models indicated by Buell (2004) in her research, this research sought to provide comparative models of spiritual helping relationships
