Solanum elaeagnifolium (SOLEL), a native plant of the Americas is a highly spread invasive alien species worldwide with impacts on biodiversity and agriculture. It has a long history in Mediterranean basin and the Middle East where Türkiye is located but there was no record except one in 2006 from the eastern the Mediterranean of Türkiye of which introduction was attributed to migrating birds. Despite widespread and large populations in neighboring countries, not detecting SOLEL in Türkiye had been questionable. The aims of the study were to find out new populations of SOLEL in Türkiye and understand the reason of less population occurred in Türkiye. Two areas were selected near the country borders of Türkiye which are known as migrating bird routes. Areas were visited unregularly several times from 2020 to 2023 to find out SOLEL populations. New populations were detected in the eastern Mediterranean and Aegean Regions of Türkiye which are over 1000 km apart from each other. SOLEL populations and bird migration routes through Türkiye and countries SOLEL has already been recorded were compared. It is concluded that SOLEL might be introduced by migrating birds. It is suggested that more detailed research is needed to explain the role of migrating birds in invasive alien plants’ introductions. Furthermore, plants around wetlands which birds use in their migration routes should be observed to prevent new plant invasions.

This paper is dedicated to victims of February 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye, where the most SOLEL populations in this paper have been detected.

Amerika Kıtasının yerli bitkilerinden olan Solanum elaeagnifolium (SOLEL), biyolojik çeşitliliği ve tarımı etkileyen, dünya çapında oldukça yaygın bir istilâcı yabancı türdür. Türkiye'nin de yer aldığı Akdeniz havzasında ve Orta Doğu'da uzun süredir bulunmasına rağmen 2006 yılındaki bir kayıt hariç Türkiye’de bulunduğuna dair bilgi bulunmamaktadır. Türkiye’nin doğu Akdeniz kısmında belirlenen bu popülasyonun Türkiye’ye girişinde göçmen kuşların rol oynayabileceği kaydedenlerce öne sürülmüştür. Çevre ülkelerde yaygın ve yoğun olarak bulunmasına rağmen SOLEL'in Türkiye'de tespit edilememesi şüpheyle karşılanmaktadır. Çalışmanın amaçları, Türkiye'deki yeni SOLEL popülasyonlarını belirlemek ve Türkiye'deki düşük SOLEL yoğunluğunun sebebini anlamaktır. Türkiye'de göçmen kuş yollarında bulunan ve ülke sınırlarına yakın iki alan seçilmiştir. Bu alanlarda 2020-2023 yılları arasında SOLEL popülasyonlarını saptamak için çok sayıda periyodik olmayan sürveyler yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma ziyaretlerinde, Türkiye'nin birbirinden 1000 km'den daha uzak olan Doğu Akdeniz ve Ege Bölgelerinde yeni popülasyonlar tespit edilmiştir. Türkiye’deki ve diğer SOLEL kaydedilmiş ülkelerdeki popülasyonlar ve göçmen kuşların yolları mukayese edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, SOLEL’in Türkiye’ye göçmen kuşlar tarafından getirilmiş olabileceği kanısına varılmıştır. İstilâcı yabancı bitkilerle göçmen kuşlar arasındaki ilişkinin ortaya konulması için daha ayrıntılı çalışmalara ihtiyaç olduğu düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca, kuşların göç yolları üzerindeki sulak alanlardaki bitkiler, yeni bitki istilâlarını önlemek için gözlemlenmelidir.
