“…In Turkey, the genus is represented by 76 taxa (66 species) (Davis, 1970;Davis et al, 1988;Güneş and Özhatay, 2000;Genç and Şahin, 2011) belonging to 11 sections according to the infrageneric system of Kupicha (1983). These sections are Orobus, Lathyrostylis (Platystylis), Lathyrus (syn.…”

In this study, the epidermal types and their distribution on dorsal and lateral petals, the trichome types and their density on sepals of Lathyrus chloranthus, L. digitatus, L. laxiflorus subsp. laxiflorus, L. roseus subsp. roseus, L. sativus, and L. tuberosus, belonging to sections Lathyrus, Lathyrostylis, Pratensis, and Orobon of the genus Lathyrus in Turkey were investigated using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the systematic significance of these characters was evaluated. These taxa, except L. sativus, are studied for the first time under aspects of the petal and sepal micromorphology. Three major epidermal types were recognized on the petal: tabular rugose striate cells (TRS), areolate cells with more or less striations (AS), and papillose conical striate cells (PCS). TRS and AS were further subdivided into three subtypes. TRS was found on the dorsal and lateral petals of L. chloranthus, L. sativus, and L. tuberosus: the dorsal petals of L. roseus subsp. roseus and the lateral petals of L. laxiflorus subsp. laxiflorus, while AS was present on the dorsal and lateral petals of L. digitatus and the lateral petals of L. roseus subsp. roseus. PCS was found only on the dorsal petals of L. digitatus. Three main types of trichomes on the sepal were observed: peltate glandular, capitate glandular, and nonglandular trichomes. The capitate glandular and nonglandular trichomes were further subdivided into three subtypes. The peltate glandular trichomes were present only in L. chloranthus, but absent in the others. The capitate glandular trichomes were found in L. chloranthus, L. laxiflorus subsp. laxiflorus, L. roseus subsp. roseus, and L. tuberosus. The nonglandular trichomes were always present in L. chloranthus and L. laxiflorus subsp. laxiflorus. The present results show that the petal and sepal micromorphology can be used in delimitation of the taxa based on petal and sepal micromorphology.

“…In the Flora of Turkey, the genus is represented by 67 taxa at the species, subspecies, and variety level. However, the number of known taxa in Turkey increased to 75 following the publication of the Flora of Turkey (Davis et al 1988;Günes and Ö zhatay 2000;Genç and Ş ahin 2008;Genc 2009). Fifty-four species are listed in the Flora Europaea (Tutin and Heywood 1981).…”

Lathyrus species are distributed in natural areas of Turkey and are cultivated for use in human and animal food. Plants and seeds of Lathyrus species contain a neurotoxic substance called b-N-oxalyl-La, b-diamino propanoic acid (ODAP). When consumed in large quantities, ODAP may cause a kind of paralysis known as lathyrism. In this note, ODAP levels were determined in Lathyrus species collected in the Burdur-Isparta provinces. The leaves and seeds of plant samples were analysed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). ODAP was not detected in L. aphaca L. var. pseudoaphaca (Boiss.) Davis, L. sphaericus Retz., or L. aureus (Stev.) Brandza; the seed samples of L. cicera L. and L. clymenum L. contained 0.053 and 0.171% ODAP, respectively. Leaf samples of L. cicera L. contained 0.018% ODAP. This preliminary note seems to point to a secondary gene pool that may serve as a valuable source of genetic material for grass pea improvement.

“…Davis (1970) stated that the genus was represented as 67 taxa at the species, subspecies, and variety level in Flora of Turkey. However, the number of taxa at Turkey was increased to 77 and 25 of that were known as endemic (Davis et al, 1988;Güner et al, 2000;Genç & Şahin, 2008;Genç, 2009;Genç & Şahin, 2011;Güneş & Çırpıcı, 2012;Güneş, 2014). Lathyrus L. was important owing to economically and nutritionally.…”

Genus Lathyrus L. belonging to Fabaceae (Leguminosae) family consisted of 77 taxa at the species, subspecies, and variety level at Turkey and 25 of that were known as endemic. Lathyrus egirdiricus H.Genc & A.Sahin and Lathyrus tefennicus H. Genç & A. Şahin were endemic species and described at the date of 2008 and 2011, respectively. The seeds of Lathyrus tefennicus and Lathyrus egirdiricus were collected in Tefenni of Burdur province and Eğirdir of Isparta province in May of 2016 at Turkey. The concentration of Cd, Cr, Ni, Cu, Mn, Zn, Fe, Ca, Mg, Na and K in the Lathyrus tefennicus and Lathyrus egirdiricus seeds were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. A microwave oven was used for the sample digestion. The accuracy of proposed method was confirmed by the analysis of the certified reference material (EnviroMAT Contaminated Soil). All results were given at 95% of confidence level. The presence of different concentrations of elements in the seeds of both species strengthens the belief that this data can be used in plant taxonomy.
