On The Polymorphic Meadow Spittlebug, Philaenus Spumarius (L.) (Homoptera: Cercopidae), Selçuk Yurtsever
On The Polymorphic Meadow Spittlebug, Philaenus Spumarius (L.) (Homoptera: Cercopidae), Selçuk Yurtsever
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Due to its interesting biological aspects, the meadow spittlebug Philaenus spumarius has received great attention from biologists for decades. It has been one of the extensively studied species in ecology and genetics. This homopteran insect shows very high habitat diversity and therefore has a wide global distribution. Adults exhibit a heritable colour/pattern polymorphism on the dorsal surface throughout its range. A similar colour/pattern variation also occurs in certain ventral parts. Recent laboratory studies have dealt with its polyandrous aspect that is, females may mate several times with different males and the offspring of a single female may be fathered, therefore, …

Age Determination Methods Of Solea Lascaris (Risso, 1810) Inhabiting The Black Sea, Derya Bostanci, Nazmi̇ Polat
Age Determination Methods Of Solea Lascaris (Risso, 1810) Inhabiting The Black Sea, Derya Bostanci, Nazmi̇ Polat
Turkish Journal of Zoology
This study was conducted to determine the most reliable bony structures for ageing Solea lascaris inhabiting the Black Sea. The relations between four different bony structures are presented in tables and figures by scale, vertebra, otolith and broken burnt-otolith ages of 215 samples collected between October 1996 and October 1997. It is concluded the broken-burnt otolith is the most reliable structure for ageing this species. The Von Bertalanffy growth equation was estimated from the broken-burnt otolith age as L_t=24.85 x [1-e-^{0.113(t+3.87)}].
Apoptosis: Programmed Cell Death, Mahmut Çalişkan
Apoptosis: Programmed Cell Death, Mahmut Çalişkan
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Programmed cell death has been found in many multicellular organisms and occurs as a part of normal development as well as in pathological processes associated with some diseases. Programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is the process whereby certain cells are induced to activate their own death or cell suicide. Apoptosis has been described in a wide variety of cell and tissue types from nematodes to mammals. Apoptosis, unlike necrosis, is mediated by the active participation of dying cells. In another words, the dying cells synthesize certain proteins and enzymes to carry out the "suicide" process. The genes involved in apoptosis …

Comparison Of Photosynthetic Water Use Efficiency Of Sweet Sorghum At Canopy And Leaf Scales, Mustafa Ünlü, Pasquale Steduto
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Little is known about the response of sweet sorghum to water stress. Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize sweet sorghum physiological water use efficiency (WUE) under progressing water stress conditions, with emphasis on the canopy scale as compared with the leaf scale. Sweet sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor(L.) Moench) was subjected to two water stress cycles. Energy, water vapor, and CO 2 fluxes were estimated at the canopy scale by means of the Bowen ratio/energy balance/CO 2 gradient method (BREB+), and at the leaf scale with a portable photosynthesis system. Predawn (yb) and noon-time leaf water potential (yn) …
Effect Of Zinc Microelement On Quality Of Some Wheat Cultivars Grown In Central Anatolia, Gülcan Kinaci
Effect Of Zinc Microelement On Quality Of Some Wheat Cultivars Grown In Central Anatolia, Gülcan Kinaci
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Almost half of the cultivated areas of Turkey have been found to be zinc deficient. This deficiency is even more serious in Central Anatolia, the large cereal-producing region. Zinc is an essential element for nourishing plants, and also for normal development and functioning of humans and animals. Meeting the daily zinc requirement from diet is very difficult for people whose daily energy intake is based on cereals. However, wheat bread by itself contributes 40-70 % of daily energy intake for Turkish people. One way to overcome this problem is by increasing the zinc content of wheat by applying zinc to …

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Under salinity stress, growth and variations in proline, Na, Cl, P and K concentrations of three chickpea varieties (Canitez- 87, ILC-195/2 and Damla), which are cultivated widely in Turkey, were investigated. For this purpose, experimental soil was salinized with 68 mmol kg ^{-1}NaCl. The salinity responses of chickpea varieties were compared by means of various plant parameters. According to the results, Damla was affected by salinity stress much more than Canitez-87 and ILC-195/2 cultivars. However, under salinity stress, the dry weight of the Damla variety was influenced much less than the others. Sodium and Cl contents were generally found to …

The Effect Of Calcium Concentration Of Water Onchloride Cell Density In Gill Of Brown Trout(Salmo Trutta L.) Larvae, Meti̇n Çalta
Turkish Journal of Biology
The effects of the calcium concentration on chloride cell (mitochondria-rich cell) density in the gills of brown trout ( Salmo trutta L.) larvae were studied. For this purpose, animals were divided into 3 groups 2 weeks after hatching and each groups was exposed to different calcium concentrations of water for two weeks. The results showed that the number of chloride cells in gill arch epithelia of larval fish increased with decreased calcium concentration.This increase was statistically significant in the gills of larvae kept in zero-Ca 2+ freshwater (ZCWF) ( P< 0.001 ) and of those kept in low-Ca 2+ freshwater (LCFW) ( P< 0.05) in comparision with the gills of larvae kept in normal freshwater (NFW).
