Abstract (EN)

In Turkey, saffron plant (Crocus sativus L.) has been cultivated only on the small area located in the village of Davutobasi in Safranbolu and it becomes endangered species. In this study, the phenological periods and the morphological characteristics of the roots, corm, leaf and flower along with the habitat characteristics for the climatic and the soil type requirements are determined in order to establish the biology of saffron plant (Crocus sativus L.). Three replications of two different corm spacings x sowing depths x corm diameters is used to evaluate their effects on the yield of daughter corm and flower production by using factorial experimental design on the experimental field.
