Investigation of Symptoms and Hosts of Semi Parasite Plant Species in East Mediterranean and Central Anatolia Region of Turkey
Abstract
This
study was carried out to determine the symptoms and hosts of the semi parasitic plant
species causing problems on the forest and fruit trees in the East
Mediterranean (Kahramanmaras) and Central Anatolia region (Nigde) in 2012-2016. When these semi parasitic plants
appear on the plants, they can cause swelling at the germinated sites of
branches of their host and resulting backward tissue drying. It has also been
observed to cause the host to die completely in some host such as almonds and
apricot. The study was conducted in Nigde, through the Mistletoe survey performed on some fruit and park trees and the
results indicated that a subspecies of semi parasitic. Viscum album naming Viscum album ssp. album was living on these trees. The whitethorn, wild pear, Ankara pear, almond, Braeburn apple,
plum, apricot, sour cherry, locust, Canada poplar and willow were found to be the host for Viscum
album ssp. album. Other mistletoe species; Viscum album ssp. abietis was seen on Taurus fir and Taurus
cedar while Viscum album subsp. austriacum on Pinus nigra subsp. pallasiana.
