Cumalıkızık ve Çevresinde (Bursa) Etnobotanik Bir Araştırma

A comprehensive ethnobotanical study of Bursa's Cumalıkızık region reveals 140 plant species from 59 families, with diverse local uses including medicine (113), food (17), ornamentation (20), furniture (5), dye (2), and animal feed (2). The research, conducted through fieldwork and interviews with 51 participants (34 women, 17 men) between 2020-2021, highlights Malva sylvestris L. as the most versatile species, utilized in multiple categories. Key plant families include Lamiaceae, Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Ranunculaceae, and Rosaceae, with usage patterns varying across plant parts such as leaves, flowers, fruits, or entire plants. This study provides valuable insights into traditional knowledge and biodiversity conservation in a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
