Flower Closure In The Field Bindweed (Convolvulus Arvensis): A Field Test Of The Pollination Hypothesis, Pavol Prokop, Dominika Neupauerova
Flower Closure In The Field Bindweed (Convolvulus Arvensis): A Field Test Of The Pollination Hypothesis, Pavol Prokop, Dominika Neupauerova
Turkish Journal of Botany
Although the behavioral plasticity of flower traits has received considerable attention, its adaptive value is not thoroughly understood. We experimentally examined flower opening/closure in field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis), a species with short flower persistence (1 day) in which adaptive responses to pollination were not previously expected. In line with the pollination hypothesis we suggested that flower exposure in this species should respond to pollination. More specifically, we predicted that flower closure in the pollinated flowers would be quicker than that in unpollinated flowers. As predicted, the unpollinated flowers were open for a longer time than the pollinated flowers. There was …

Turkish Journal of Botany
Ellenberg developed a system that assigns indicator scores for habitat characteristics of individual plant species. Swamp forests are highly diverse ecological communities and include different plant species, all of which have different ecological requirements. Ellenberg's indicator values (EIVs) were calculated for soil pH and nitrogen (N) concentration in some swamp forest species in the Central Black Sea region of Turkey. In this study, the EIVs for soil pH were usually similar in the swamp forest species studied, while some differences were found with respect to EIVs for soil nitrogen concentration. Tolerance values (TVs) of all of the studied species were …

Subcellular Localization And Developmental Regulation Of Cytosolic, Soluble Pyrophosphatase Isoforms In Arabidopsis Thaliana, Zahi̇de Nesli̇han Öztürk, Steffen Greiner, Thomas Rausch
Turkish Journal of Botany
Pyrophosphate (PP_{I}) is the by-product of several reversible key reactions of primary metabolism. Thus, generated PP_i should be removed by hydrolysis via pyrophosphatases to prevent accumulation and to drive anabolism. In plastids, a plastidic, soluble pyrophosphatase splits PP_i released by ADPG pyrophosphorylase. The cytosolic PP_i pool is believed to be hydrolyzed by tonoplast- and/or Golgi-integral H^{+}-translocating pyrophosphatases. The Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. genome encodes 6 soluble pyrophosphatase isoforms (PPas), 1 of which was shown to be localized in plastids. The remaining 5 of those PPas (PPas 1-5) are more similar to each other with highly conserved protein sequences. They all …

Turkish Journal of Botany
Recent phylogenetic analyses proved several infrageneric units within the genus Crocus to be para- or polyphyletic. In an attempt to arrive at a system of Crocus that closely reflects species relationships, we provide here phylogenetic, morphometric, geographic, and nomenclatorial data for the species of a narrower-defined, monophyletic Crocus series Reticulati. We sequenced the ETS and ITS regions of the nuclear ribosomal DNA in 9 Reticulati and 19 outgroup species. Three chloroplast loci (trnL-F, rps16-trnQ, matK-trnK) were sequenced in the newly defined series Reticulati species and 1 outgroup. Data were analyzed with Bayesian and parsimony algorithms. The phylogenies resulted in 2 …

On The Peculiar Reactivity Of A C,N-Annelated Isoindole Core, Iaroslav Baglai, Valerie Maraval, Zoia Vsevolodivna Voitenko, Carine Duhayon, Yulian Mihailovich Volovenko, Remi Chauvin
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
C-, N-, and/or O-methylation products were generated from 11H-isoindolo[2,1-a]quinazoline-5-one upon treatment with NaH followed by iodomethane under air, and possible recrystallization from methanol. Two products were fully characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction analysis. In accordance with the HSAB principle, this soft methylating agent (MeI) leads mainly to the C,C-dimethylated product 11,11-dimethyl-11H-isoindolo[2,1-a]quinazoline-5-one, which was previously not observed, beside the N-methylated product, in a procedure using methyl tosylate as a hard methylating agent of the same substrate in the initial absence of a base. A mechanism is finally proposed for the formation of methyl 2-(3-methyl-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-yl)benzoate as an oxidation side product.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Moxifloxacin (MOX) is a fourth-generation synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent with many important therapeutic properties. Fluorescence quenching was used to study the interaction of MOX with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) in aqueous solution. The intercalative binding mode and a static quenching mechanism were confirmed by the Stern--Volmer quenching rate constant (K_q) of 3.48 \times 10^{11} M^{-1} s^{-1} at 298 K. The thermodynamic parameters (\Delta H = --118.4 KJ mol^{-1} and \Delta S = --299.4 J mol^{-1} K^{-1}) were calculated at different temperatures, and they indicate that the main forces between MOX and ct-DNA are hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals force. …

Turkish Journal of Biology
Plant-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) has shown a great potential in pest control and requires i) subcloning of sense/antisense regions in compatible vectors, ii) transfer of the silencing cassette into a binary vector, iii) transformation of Agrobacterium tumefaciens with desired binary plasmids, and iv) transformation of plants with Agrobacterium. The procedure is long and should ensure plasmid backbone stability; however, plasmid recombination due to antibiotic selection is a common problem. pGSA1252 is an RNAi silencing binary vector allowing direct cloning of hairpin structure; however, it possesses a chloramphenicol selection marker leading to plasmid recombination in various Agrobacterium strains. To solve this …

The objective of this study was to obtain the complete coding sequences (CDSs) of 3 buffalo genes (AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3) using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and to depict their molecular characterizations and tissue expression patterns in buffalo. The buffalo AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3 CDSs were 1443 bp, 1446 bp, and 1440 bp in length and encoded 480, 481, and 479 amino acids, respectively. Nine, 13, and 3 nucleotide differences were found in the CDSs between buffalo and other bovine species. Phylogenetic analyses showed that buffalo AKT1 and AKT2 have close genetic relationships with other species in the family Bovidae, …
