Effects of different growing media and sowing depths on seed germination of caper (capparis ovata desf.)
This study was carried out to determine the effects of different sowing depths and growing media on germination percentage and germination rate of caper (Capparis ovata Desf.) seeds. Treatments applied to the seeds were 3 different sowing depths (0.5 cm, 1 cm and 1.5 cm) and 4 different growing media (forest soil+sand+manure (2:1:1); peat+manure (2:1); peat+perlite+manure (2:1:1) and peat+forestsoil manure (1:1:1)). The cold stratification treatment (at 4 +/- 1 degrees) for 50 days was applied on the seeds to overcome seed dormancy. The seeds were sown in pottrays at 24 +/- 1 degrees C in the controlled greenhouse conditions. The statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications and 60 seeds were used for each replication. Germinated seeds were observed periodically during 70 days to determine germination percentages and germination rates. The highest germination percentage (51.1%) was obtained from the growing medium of peat+perlite+manure (2:1:1) and sown in 1.0 cmdepth, the best germination rate (36 days) was determined from the same growing medium but sown in 1.5 cmdepth. On the other hand, the lowest germination percentage (2.8%) was determined from the seeds which were sown in the forest soil+sand+manure (2:1:1), in 0.5 cm depth
Effects of different sowing depths and growing media on germination of bladder-senna (coluteaarmena boiss & huet) seeds.
This study was carried out to determine which sowing depth and growing medium should be preferred to increase germination percentage of Coluteaarmena seeds. Treatments applied to the seeds were 3 different sowing depths (0.5 cm, 1 cm and 1.5 cm) and 4 different growing media (forest soil+sand+manure (2: 1: 1); peat+manure (2: 1); peat+perlite+manure (2: 1: 1) and peat+forestsoil+manure (1: 1: 1)). The seeds were submersed in concentrated (98%) sulphuric acid for 30 minutes to overcome seed dormancy. The seeds were sown in pot-trays at 24 +/- 1 degrees C in the greenhouse. The statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications and 60 seeds were used for each replication. Germinated seeds were observed periodically during 42 days to determine germination percentages and germination rates. Both the highest germination percentage (31.1%) and germination rate (9 days) were obtained in seeds which were sown in the medium of forest soil+sand+manure (2: 1: 1), in 0.5 cm-sowing depth. On the other hand, the lowest germination percentage (2.8%) was determined from the seeds which were sown in 1 cm-depth in the growing medium of peat+manure (2: 1)
Effects of GA(3) and H2SO4 pre-treatments on germination of eastern strawberry tree (arbutus andrachne l.) seeds
This study was carried out to determine the effects of some pre-treatments including soaking in 400, 600, 800, 1000 ppm GA(3) for 24 hours and concentrate (96%) H2SO4 for 1, 3, 5 and 7 minutes on seed germination and to investigate how to overcome dormancy of Arbutus andrachne L. seeds. The seeds were sown at 24 +/- 1 degrees C under darkness in laboratory, at 24 +/- 1C degrees in the greenhouse and under open field conditions. The statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications. Germinated seeds were observed periodically during 90 days to determine germination percentages. The highest germination percentages were obtained from the seeds soaked in 800 ppm GA(3) and sown in the laboratory, soaked in 400-800 ppm GA(3) and sown in the greenhouse and soaked in 400 ppm GA(3) and sown under open field conditions both open field conditions and in the greenhouse with 94.7%, 86.0% and 26.7%, respectively. On the other hand, the lowest germination percentages were obtained from the control seeds which were sown in the laboratory and greenhouse conditions (0.7% and 8.0%) for GA(3) treatments. It can be said that the effect of H2SO4 pre-treatments on germination of the seeds does not have positively
Effects of cold stratification and H2SO4 pre-treatments on germination of sea buckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides L.) seeds under open field and greenhouse conditions
This study was carried out to determine the effects of some pre-treatments including soaking in concentrate (96%) H2SO4 for 1, 2, 3 and 4 minutes and cold stratification for 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 days on seed germination and to investigate how to overcome dormancy of Hippophae rhamnoides L. seeds. The seeds were sown in the greenhouse and under open field conditions. The statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications. Germinated seeds were observed periodically during 35 days to determine germination percentages and germination rates. The highest germination percentages (44.4% and 75.5%) were obtained from the seeds soaked in H2SO4 for 2 minute and sown both open field conditions and in the greenhouse, respectively. The lowest germination percentages were obtained from the control seeds which were sown under both two conditions (20.7% and 39.2%). While the best germination rate (11 days) was determined from 3-minutes H2SO4 pre treatments in the greenhouse, 10-day cold stratification gave the best germination rate (9 days) under open field conditions

Effects of cold stratification, sulphuric acid, submersion in hot and tap water pretreatments in the greenhouse and open field conditions on germination of bladder-Senna (Colutea armena Boiss. and Huet.) seeds
This study was carried out to determine which pre-treatments should be preferred to overcome dormancy problems of Colutea armena seeds which were collected from three different provenances. Pre-treatments applied to the seeds were submersion in concentrated (98%) sulphuric acid for 30 min, floating in hot water (100 degrees C) followed by continual cooling for 24 h in the same water, soaking in tap water (20 +/- 1 degrees C) for 24 h and cold stratification for 20, 40 and 60 days. The seeds were sown in polyethylene pots in the greenhouse and in seedbeds under open field conditions. The statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications. Germinated seeds were observed periodically during 70 days to determine germination percentages and germination rates. The highest germination percentages (52.2, 56.7 and 60.5%) were obtained in seeds which were submersed in sulphuric acid for 30 min and sown in the greenhouse for all three provenances. The best germination rates for provenances of Koprubasi and Derinkoy were 14 and 16 days which were determined in seeds soaked in sulphuric acid for 30 min and sown in the greenhouse. On the other hand, the best germination rate (12 days) of provenance of Salkimli was determined in seeds which were floated in hot water (100 degrees C) followed by continual cooling for 24 h in the same water and sown under open field conditions

Geographic variations for cone and seed characteristics of oriental spruce (picea orientalis)
Bu çalışmanın amacı Doğu Ladini (Picea orientalis) kozalak ve tohum özelliklerindeki coğrafi farklılıkların belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal olarak Doğu Ladini’nin Artvin ve Posof (Ardahan)’daki doğal yayılış alanı içinde 33 noktadan 3 veya 5 anaçtan açık tozlaşma ürünü kozalaklar toplanmıştır. Kozalak ve tohum özelliklerine ait karakterler (kozalak boyu, kozalak eni, elde edilen tohumların 1000 tane ağırlığı, tohum eni, tohum boyu ve tohum kanat uzunluğu) ölçülmüştür. Araştırma alanının coğrafik özelliklerine göre bu veriler değerlendirilmiştir. Kozalakların elde edildiği ağaçların bulunduğu yerin GPS yardımıyla koordinatları, denizden yüksekliği ve bakıları tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen istatistik analizlerine tabi tutulmuştur. Yapılan korelasyon analizi sonucunda tohum toplanan alanların yükseltisi ile bazı kozalak değerleri (kozalak eni ve kozalak boyu) arasında negatif bir korelasyon olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yükselti arttıkça kozalak eni ve kozalak boyu değerleri azalmaktadır. Ayrıca denizden uzaklık ile kozalak eni, tohum eni ve 1000 tane ağırlığı arasında yine negatif bir korelasyon olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05).The aim of this study is to investigate the geographic variations of some cone and seed characteristics of oriental spruce (Picea orientalis). Fort this purpose, the cones were collected from 33 sampling plots within the species natural distribution in Artvin and Posof (Ardahan). Cone length and diameter, 1000-seed weight, seed length and diameter, height of seed wing and number of seeds in a cone were determined. Geographical features such as altitude, aspect, and distance to the Black Sea, longitude and latitude of the sample plots were recorded. According to the analysis of correlation, the negative correlations were defined between the altitude of sampling points and cone length and diameter. In addition to this, there were negative correlations between the distance to the Black Sea and cone diameter, seed diameter and 1000-seed weight (p<0.05)
Effects of summer planting trials on survival rate of oriental spruce (picea orientalis l. link.) seedlings
Yaz sonu dikimlerinin tepsi saksıda yetiştirilen Doğu Ladini (Picea orientalis L. Link.) için uygun olup
olmadığı ve fidanlarının tutma başarısı ve yaşama yüzdeleri üzerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. 2+0 yaşındaki
fidanlar 2004 yılı Ağustos sonu ve Ekim ayında Artvin-Tütüncüler ve Madenler Yörelerinde, sekiz farklı deneme
alanına, açık alanda ve siper altında dikilmiştir. Denemeler tesadüfî tam blok deneme desenine göre üç
yinelemeli olarak kurulmuş, Madenler Yöresi sonbahar dikimleri dışında her yinelemede 50 adet fidan
kullanılmıştır. Fidan boyları ve kök boğazı çapları dikim sırasında ve ikinci (2006 sonbahar) vejetasyon dönemi
sonunda ölçülmüş, ayrıca fidanların yaşama yüzdeleri belirlenmiştir. Dikimden sonraki ikinci vejetasyon dönemi
sonunda Tütüncüler Yöresinde sonbaharda dikilen fidanların yaşama yüzdeleri (%89.7) yaz sonu dikimlerinin
yaşama yüzdelerinden (%81.7) daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Madenler Yöresinde ise yaz sonu dikimlerindeki
yaşama yüzdesi (%81.3) sonbaharda dikilen fidanların yaşama yüzdesinden (%72.8) daha yüksek olmuştur.
Açık alan ve siper koşullarında Tütüncüler Yöresinde istatistiksel anlamda yaşama yüzdelerinde farklılık
olmazken, Madenler Yöresinde siper altında (%83.9) açık alana göre (%70.2) daha yüksek yaşama yüzdesi
elde edilmiştirIt was investigated in this study whether summer planting was suitable for containerized Oriental Spruce
(Picea orientalis L. Link.) or not. The seedlings were planted both in the summer (in late August) and in the
fall (in October) 2004, in Tütüncüler and Madenler regions, Artvin. The plantations were also done under open
field and shelter conditions for the summer and the fall plantings. Eight different sample plots (the four were
in Tütüncüler and four the other were in Madenler) were established using 2+0 years old containerized
seedlings. Statistical approach was a randomized complete block design with three replications. The fifty
seedlings for each replication were planted, except the fall planting studied in Madenler region. Heights and
root collar diameters of the seedlings were measured immediately after they were planted in the sample plots
and measured at the end of the second growing period (in the fall, 2006). Survival rate of the seedlings were
also defined for each sample plot. According to statistical analyses, while the fall planting studies had better
survival rate (89.7%) than summer planting (81.7%) in Tütüncüler region, the summer planting studies in
Madenler region had better survival rate (81.3%) than the fall planting (72.8%) trials. There was not any
difference between open field and shelter conditions for survival rates of the seedlings in Tütüncüler region.
In Madenler, survival rate of the seedlings for shelter condition (83.9 %) was higher than open field plantation
(70.2 %)
