Glaucium Mill. is one of the most important genus of the Papaveraceae family which
have represented 5 genus about 102 species in Turkey. Generally, known as “horned
poppy”, “çömlekçatlatan”. In this study some taxa of the genus (G. corniculatum (L)
Rud. subsp. corniculatum, G. corniculatum (L) Rud. subsp. refractum (Nab.) Cullen,
G. grandiflorum Boiss & Huet var. grandiflorum, G. grandiflorum Boiss & Huet var.
torquatum Cullen, G. grandiflorum var. haussknechtii (Bornm. & Fedde) Parsa, G.
flavum Crantz, G. leiocarpum Boiss., G. acutidentatum Hausskn. & Bornm., G.
cappadocicum Boiss., G. secmenii Yıldırımlı) soil samples were analysed and their
physical and chemical properties were identifed in order to determine the ecological
characteristics of the environments in which the taxa were grown. At the end of the
investigation that the taxa preferred soils, alkaline soils in terms of pH, highly limy
soils in terms of lime. Differences were observed in the other parameters (pH, salt,
lime, saturation, organic matter, useful P, useful K, Ca, Mg), in the direction of these
data, it seems that the taxa are adapted to different environments that are
specialized.Glaucium Mill. is one of the most important genus of the Papaveraceae family which
