Abstract

The purpose of this experiment was to see which type of bean is a better interspecific competitor in a salty environment which is similar to the Beyşehir,Konya and more likely to survive in the salty environment of Beyşehir,Konya. And then my research question that I came up with is: How does high amount of NaCl as in the Beyşehir,Konya affect interspecific competition of Phaseolus vulgaris humilis, Phaseolus coccineus, Phaseolus lunatus, Phaseolus vulgaris dermason indicated by growth in height? Each bean types (5 bean from each type) were put into a plastic cup and covered with cotton and given water and left for germination for 10 days. After the germination step the beans were put into a pan containing salt free soil and left for growing in the pan for 14 days. The most growing one was accepted as the best interspecific competitor one and also as the most likely one to surive in Beyşehir,Konya’s salty environment. In this experiment ANOVA test is used and which proved that salt increases the interspecific competition and causes a decrease in growth of the beans since the p-value is 0,011567. In the end the best competitor and the most likely bean type to survive was found as Phaseolus coccineus according to the growth it has shown.
