- Abstract
Cyclamen alpinum is a species distributing in Southwest Anatolia (Muğla, Denizli, Antalya, Burdur, Isparta) in Turkey and flowering on early spring. C. alpinum was described in the last part of the 19th Century. It was known as C. alpinum until redescribed in 1975 as Cyclamen trochopteranthum by Otto Schwarz. Cyclamen trochopteranthum which is one of the 6 species of Cyclamen is an endemic species to Turkey with the local distribution area. But recently this species is indicated again as Cyclamen alpinum. In this study, morphological measure and observations were done on C. alpinum plants which collected from two different location (Marmarlı and Gökbel) in Dalyan in the border of Ortaca town in Muğla and the results were evaluated with the soil analysis belonging to that location. Any statistically significant difference was not determined between the samples of locations in the measured traits, and average diameter of tubers 4.04 cm, tuber height 2.17 cm, tuber weight 21.25 gram, leaf width-lenght 4.28-3.45 cm, the number of leaf per plant 9.05, flower number per plant were determined as 5.25. It is also determined that Marmarlı and Gökbel soils that the population grows, is rich in nitrogenous, rich or mid level in phosphor and potassium, has an alkaline (slightly or medium), saliness, low lime and clay or clay-loam texture. The number of chromosome of this species is 2n:30.
