Seasonal Fluctuation In The Rotifer Fauna Of Kesikköprü Dam Lake (Ankara, Turkey), Si̇bel Yi̇ği̇t
Seasonal Fluctuation In The Rotifer Fauna Of Kesikköprü Dam Lake (Ankara, Turkey), Si̇bel Yi̇ği̇t
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The individual and seasonal variations of 11 rotifer species identified in Kesikköprü Dam Lake were investigated from April 1995 to May 1996. Species-wise percentages were Polyarthra vulgaris 24.5%, Keratella quadrata 20.8%, Asplanchna priodonta 16.0%, Brachionus angularis 11.2%, Keratella cochlearis 8.8%, Synchaeta litoralis 7.0%, Lecane luna 4.0%, Notholca squamula 3.8%, Lepadella patella 1.6%, Notholca acuminata 1.4% and Colurella adriatica 0.7%. Apart from two seasonal peaks in spring and autumn, some species such as S. litoralis, L. luna, N. squamula, and C. adriatica showed smaller fluctuations other than during seasonal peaks. When the annual abundance of species was taken into consideration, P. …

Sds-Page Patterns Of Blood Serum Proteins In Some Species Of The Genus Meriones (Mammalia: Rodentia), Reyhan Çolak, Nuri̇ Yi̇ği̇t, Ercüment Çolak, Rolf Gattermann, Karsten Neumann
Sds-Page Patterns Of Blood Serum Proteins In Some Species Of The Genus Meriones (Mammalia: Rodentia), Reyhan Çolak, Nuri̇ Yi̇ği̇t, Ercüment Çolak, Rolf Gattermann, Karsten Neumann
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The blood serum proteins of Meriones meridianus, Meriones crassus, Meriones persicus and Meriones tristrami, all found in Turkey, along with domestic Meriones unguiculatus, which originated in Mongolia, were examined for the first time by SDS-PAGE. In the globulin zone, seven to ten bands were identified, one band in the post-albumin and albumin zones and one or two bands in the pre-albumin zone of five species of the genus Meriones. There was no diagnostic difference in the pattern of serum protein bands between species.

The Effects Of High Salinity On The Production Of Capoeta Tinca In A Naturally Contaminated River, Fi̇tnat Güler Ekmekçi̇
The Effects Of High Salinity On The Production Of Capoeta Tinca In A Naturally Contaminated River, Fi̇tnat Güler Ekmekçi̇
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The production properties of Capoeta tinca, the dominant fish population in a naturally contaminated stream in the Kızılırmak Basin, were studied together with the physical and chemical characteristics of the waters and evaluated in order to assess the impact of the high natural salinity on the fish population. The evaluation was based on comparisons of fish specimens caught from Acı stream, which is highly contaminated by a lithology of high salt content, and those from Terme stream, the uncontaminated freshwater branch, between May 1995 and May 1996. The salinity and electrical conductivity of Acı stream varied between 2 and 8.5, …
