Özet

In the present study, phylogenetic relationships of some Helvella species from Türkiye (Helvella acetabulum, H. arctoalpina, H. calycina, H. corium, H. crispa, H. elastica, H. lacunosa, H. leucomelaena, H. leucopus, H. solitaria) were assessed using morphological and molecular characters. DNA sequences of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF1-α) were analyzed based on Bayesian Inference methods. Although, the TEF1-α region has less number of indels and consistent nucleotide variations, ITS region can be preferred for figuring out the phylogeny of Helvella species. However, none of the regions may be sufficient alone for the identification of some cryptic and morphospecies within the genu
