TI  - An Important Euroasian Genus: Scutellaria L
AB  - Scutellaria is found on every continent except for Antarctica. Especially it is found in Eurasia which has rich areas with the most species. The objective of this study is to focus on the importance of this genus. Scutellaria species need to be set a value upon and evaluated. Because the genus Scutellaria is rich in flavonoids and diterpenoids and has a wide range of pharmacological effects such as antitumor, anti-angiogenesis, hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anticonvulsant, antibacterial, antiviral activities and cancer cell inhibition. Furthermore Scutellaria species have very beautiful blooms. Some countries such as the US and China achieved cultivation of this genus and they grow some species of Scutellaria as a crop production and ornamentals. But in Turkey, cultivation for crop production hasn’t been worked on yet. Scutellaria species can be cultivated so as to gain economic and ecological benefits. Even though the wild populations of Scutellaria is widely distributed in the world, some of these species are becoming rare or threatened with population pressure, environmental pollution, and destruction of their natural habitat. Conservation by cultivation is an effective means for protecting genetic resources
