Sustainable forest management through floristic study ( Case study: Darkesh forest, Northern Khorasan Province, Iran)

Bitkilere yönelik gerçekleştirilen floristik çalışmalar, her bir ülkenin doğal kaynaklarını korumada en önemlirollerden faktörlerden biridir. Araştırma bö lgesinde önemli yetişme alanlarını temsil eden konumlardan , bitki türleritoplanmıştır. Bu kapsamdaki bitki toplama çalışmaları, 2013 ve 2014 yıllarında bitkilerin aktif büyüme dönemlerindegerçekleştirilmiştir. Toplamda 140 adet tıbbi bitki türü belgelenm iştir. Bu türler, 39 aileye ve 116 cinse ayrılmıştır. 26türe sahip Lamiaceae (Ballıbabagiller), 21 tür ile Asteraceae (Papatyagiller) ve 13 tür ile Rosaceae (Gülgiller) aileleri,araştırma bölgesinde en fazla rastlanan tıbbi bitki aileleri olmuştur. Hemikriptofitler %40, terofitler %18,4, geofitler%14,25, fanerofitler %13,75 ve kamefitler %6,42 oranındadır. Tıbbi bitkilerin fitocoğrafya özelliği, bu türlerin İran - Turan, Avrupa-Sibirya ve Akdeniz bölgelerine ait olduğunu göstermiştir. Mevcut araştırmanın s onuçları, buaraştırmada belgelenen Kereste Dışı Orman Ürünleri olarak tıbbi bitkilerin ve yabani meyvelerin, kırsal toplumunrefahında ve sürdürülebilir orman yönetiminde önemli rol oynadığını göstermiştir.

Floristik çalışmalar ile sürdürülebilir orman yönetimi (İran Kuzey Horasan bölgesi Darkeş ormanı örneği)

Floristic study of plants in each site is one the most important role in keeping natural resources of eachcountry. Plant species were collected from field sites that representing major habitats of study area. Surveys weremanaged during active growth periods in 2013 and 2014 . A total of 140 medicinal plant species were documented.These species were scattered in 39 families and 116 genera. Families of Lamiaceae with 26 species, Asteraceae with21 species and Rosaceae with 13 species were the most dominant families of medicinal plants in the study area.Hemicryphtophytes with 40% , therophytes with 18 .4%, geophytes with 14 .25% , phanerophytes with 13 .5 7% andchamaephytes with 6 .42% . The phyto -geographically of the medicinal plant showed that these species belonging tothe regions of Irano -Turanian, Euro -Siberian and Mediterranean. The results of the present study showed thatmedicinal plants and wild fruit as Non Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) documented in this study, play an importantrole in the rural community welfare and sustainable forest management.
