Turkish Journal of Zoology

The Asian chestnut gall wasp (ACGW), Dryocosmus kuriphilus, native to China was accidentally introduced into many countries worldwide, including Italy. Different susceptibilities have been reported in literature among cultivated plants belonging to different gene pools worldwide, but this aspect has not been sufficiently explored among wild chestnut populations. The aims of this multiyear study were (i) to assess differences in susceptibility to ACGW in wild C. sativa plants coming from different parts of Europe grown in an experimental plot in Central Italy, (ii) to preliminarily analyse the relationships between temperature, relative humidity and rain variables of winter and summer and …

Indigenous Entomopathogenic Fungi As Potential Biological Control Agents Of Rose Sawfly, Arge Rosae L. (Hymenoptera: Argidae), Derya Baki̇, Hi̇lal Şule Tosun, Fedai̇ Erler

Turkish Journal of Zoology

The rose sawfly, Arge rosae L. (Hymenoptera: Argidae), is one of the most destructive pests of roses grown both indoors and outdoors in Antalya province (south-western part of Turkey). Especially in greenhouse rose cultivation, growers depend heavily on synthetic pesticides to control this pest along with other arthropod pests in their crops. The aim of this study was to evaluate biocontrol potential of some indigenous soil-borne entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) against the pest. In pathogenicity assays, a total of 17 EPF isolates, belonging to three species [Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuill. - 14, Clonostachys rosea (Link) Schroers - 2 and Isaria farinosa …

What Are You Doing Here? Investigating On An Unexpected Association In Shallow Mediterranean Dark Caves Sheds Light On The Diet Of Marionia Blainvillea (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Nudibranchia), Egidio Trainito, Marco Fantin, Elisa Manganelli, Giulia Furfaro

Turkish Journal of Zoology

In a shallow dark cave along the coast of Capo Palinuro (Campania, Italy), the finding of an unusual aggregation of individuals belonging to Marionia blainvillea (Gastropoda, Nudibranchia) has allowed to identify a population of Cervera atlantica (Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Alcyonacea) and to add this latter to the list of the hosts preyed by this tritoniid nudibranch. This association was confirmed by a second observation in a dark shallow cave in the Island of San Pietro (Sardinia, Italy). Moreover, a subsequent internet data mining shed light on the diet of M. blainvillea adding useful ecological notes on the scarcely known trophism characterizing …

Freshwater ecosystems have a greater value for biodiversity per surface area than terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Streams and lakes are notably prone to biodiversity loss, being the greatest threats habitat destructions and nonnative species. The aim of the present study is to assess the fish composition of lotic and lentic water systems of an island ecosystem (Gökçeada Island, Turkey), which is poorly studied, and to highlight the entry routes and possible impacts of translocated fish species in an island ecosystem. The field surveys were conducted in a total of 14 sampling sites (five reservoirs and nine streams) in the inland …

Turkish Journal of Zoology

Eight extant species have been so far recognized for Calomyscus Thomas, 1905 which is distributed in the west of Asia. The only species which was reported from the Zagros Mountains in western and southern Iran was C. bailwardi. However, based on the integrative methods such as molecular, morphometric and karyological studies a new species is worth to be described other than C. bailwardi from the Zagros Mountains. In the present survey a new species which has been distributed in western regions of Iran was described as Calomyscus behzadi sp. nov. The new species constituted a monophyletic clade in phylogenetic tree …

A Two-Stage Hair Region Localization Method For Guided Laser Hair Removal, Murat Avşar, İmam Şami̇l Yeti̇k Jan 2021

A Two-Stage Hair Region Localization Method For Guided Laser Hair Removal, Murat Avşar, İmam Şami̇l Yeti̇k

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Removal of hair using laser is a widely used method, where our goal is to permanently remove hair by using laser to cause heat in order to thermally damage the hair follicle. However, currently available laser hair removal systems affect the outer skin layers besides hair follicles. This is a disadvantage of classical methods with major health risks. We propose a method to overcome these health risks by guiding the laser beam only to automatically localized hair regions. This study aims to develop an automated feature-based hair region localization method as an integral part of the proposed hair removal system …

Theory And Numerical Approaches Of High Order Fractional Sturm-Liouville Problems, Tahereh Houlari, Mohammad Dehghan, Jafar Biazar, Alireza Nouri Jan 2021

Theory And Numerical Approaches Of High Order Fractional Sturm-Liouville Problems, Tahereh Houlari, Mohammad Dehghan, Jafar Biazar, Alireza Nouri

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, fractional Sturm--Liouville problems of high-order are studied. A simple and efficient approach is presented to determine more eigenvalues and eigenfunctions than other approaches. Existence and uniqueness of solutions of a fractional high-order differential equation with initial conditions is addressed as well as the convergence of the proposed approach. This class of eigenvalue problems is important in finding solutions to linear fractional partial differential equations (LFPDE). This method is illustrated by three examples to signify the efficiency and reliability of the proposed numerical approach.

Some Qualitative Results For Functional Delay Dynamic Equations On Time Scales, Hali̇s Can Koyuncuoğlu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $\mathbb{T}$ be a nonempty, closed, and arbitrary set of real numbers, namely a time scale, and consider the following delay dynamical equation% \[ x^{\Delta}\left( t\right) =a\left( t\right) x\left( t\right) +f\left( t,x\left( \mathbb{\vartheta}\left( t\right) \right) \right) ,\text{ }t\in\mathbb{T}, \] where $\mathbb{\vartheta}$ stands for the abstract delay function. The main goal of this study is three-fold: obtaining the existence of an equi-bounded solution, proving the asymptotic stability of the zero solution, and showing the existence of a periodic solution based on new periodicity concept on time scales for the given delayed equation under certain conditions. In our analysis, we propose an …

An Exponential Equation Involving $K$-Fibonacci Numbers, Alioune Gueye, Salah Eddine Rihane, Alain Togbe

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

For $k\geq 2$, consider the $k$-Fibonacci sequence $(F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ having initial conditions $0, \ldots, 0, 1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms. Some well-known sequences are special cases of this generalization. The Fibonacci sequence is a special case of $(F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ with $k=2$ and Tribonacci sequence is $(F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ with $k=3$. In this paper, we use Baker's method to show that 4, 16, 64, 208, 976, and 1936 are all $k$-Fibonacci numbers of the form $(3^a\pm 1)(3^b\pm 1)$, where $a$ and $b$ are nonnegative integers.

Ideal Triangulation And Disc Unfolding Of A Singular Flat Surface, İsmai̇l Sağlam Jan 2021

Ideal Triangulation And Disc Unfolding Of A Singular Flat Surface, İsmai̇l Sağlam

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

An ideal triangulation of a singular flat surface is a geodesic triangulation such that its vertex set is equal to the set of singular points of the surface. Using the fact that each pair of points in a surface has a finite number of geodesics having length $\leq L$ connecting them, where $L$ is any positive number, we prove that each singular flat surface has an ideal triangulation provided that the surface has singular points when it has no boundary components, or each of its boundary components has a singular point. Also, we prove that such a surface contains a …
