A Study Of Pollen Mitosis And Pollen Morphology Inhexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia Edirnensisözhatay & Mathew, Feruzan Dane Jan 1999

A Study Of Pollen Mitosis And Pollen Morphology Inhexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia Edirnensisözhatay & Mathew, Feruzan Dane

Turkish Journal of Biology

: The pollen mitosis and pollen morphology of hexaploid (2n=24) Bellevalia edirnensis Özhatay & Mathew were examined. Microspores exhibited variation in size, and the exine and aperture developed before pollen mitosis began. During pollen mitosis, polarization, asymmetric styles and normal divisions were observed together with some abnormalities. During polarization of the microspore both nucleus migration and vacuole formation were common. The generative nucleus was in the proximal pole and the vegetative nucleus was in the distal pole. It was also determined that the mature pollens were 2-celled, the shape of the pollens was sphaeroidea, the type of the pollens was …

Comparative Genomic Hybridization (Cgh) Incancer Research, İbrahi̇m Keser Jan 1999

Comparative Genomic Hybridization (Cgh) Incancer Research, İbrahi̇m Keser

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Cancer is a multifactorial and multistep process. Conventional cytogenetics has become a major working field in cancer research. Chromosome rearrangements are recognized as critical in the pathogenesis of human cancer. Molecular biology and molecular cytogenetics technology have increased our ability to identify genetic alterations in cancer cells. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), oligonucleotide-primed in situ DNA synthesis (PRINS) are the most common molecular cytogenetic procedures in cancer research but they have limits with precise localization in their principles in cancer researching. However, comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) is a powerful molecular cytogenetic technique which allows the analysis …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Biological damage mediated by reactive oxygen species has been increasingly recognized in aging phenomena in recent decades. The increase in catecholamine metabolism is yet another physiological change in aging, predisposing the organism to supranormal hydrogen peroxide produc-tion as a by-product. This study was undertaken to investigate the alterations in oxidant- antioxidant status in rat cardiac tissue during aging. The effects of acute administration of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors on this status were also investigated to find possible preventive strategies in conjugate aging. MAO activities, malondialdehyde MDA and diene conjugate levels as well as superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were determined …

A Study Of The Alkaloids In Callusing Plant Tissues From A Range Of Turkish Cultivars Of Papaver Somniferum., Nermi̇n Kaya, Brain Lockwood

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Plant tissue cultures were obtained from the seeds of five varieties on the basis of petal colour) of Papaver somniferum and alkaloidal extracts were screend for the presence of secondary metabolites using thin layer chromatography and mass spectroscopy. Two plant tissue culture media were used in this study, Murashige & Skoog and Gamborg B5, supplemented with 0.1 mg/l of kinetin in addition to one of either 1.0 or 5.0 mg/l of 2, 4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D). Seedlings growing on media with 1.0 mg/l 2, 4-D produced planlets, while those supplemented with the higher dose, 5.0 mg/l, produced calluses. Variations …

Effects Of Temperature And Ripening Stage On The Respiration Rate Of Tomatoes, Ali̇ Batu Jan 1999

Effects Of Temperature And Ripening Stage On The Respiration Rate Of Tomatoes, Ali̇ Batu

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The effects of storage temperature and ripening stage on the ripening rate of freshly harvested tomatoes before storage were determined. Respiration was slower in tomatoes harvested at mature green stage of ripening, and the respiration rate increased until the tomatoes reached to the pink and light-red stages of maturity. The maximum CO 2 production occurred in toma-toes harvested at pink, light-red and red stages of maturity, whereas the minimum O 2 consumption occurred in tomatoes harvested at turning, pink and light-red stages of maturity. The highest levels of ethylene were produced by tomatoes harvested at breaking, turning and pink stages …

Relationships Between Stem Rust ( Puccinia Graminis Triticieriks. And Henn.) Resistances And Morphological Traits In Some Wheat (Triticumspp.) Hybrids, Hakan Ulukan, Murat Özgen

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

This research was carried out to determine whether dominant morphological features could be used instead of disease tests as markers of lines resistant to stem rust ( Puccinia graminis tritici Eriks. and Henn.). Of the 13 species used as material in the hybridization program, 9 were non-resistant and 4 were resistant. Experiments were carried out separately, because of the different genetic structure in seedling resistance and adult resistance. It was determined that in view of the morphological characters examined; auricle colour, leaf colour and leaf waxiness in seedling resistance, and grain glumaceouss, spike brittleness and awn dentiness in adult resistance …

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In this study, possibilities of using the tobacco wastes as fertilizers, after processing in cigarette industry have been investigated. Wheat and rape seed and sesame and corn were selected as test plants for winter and summer time period, respectively. For this purpose, tobacco wastes in the different rates (0, 750, 1500, 2250 and 3000 kg/da) were applied into soil at 15 cm. depth two months ago before seeding so it provides partly decomposition of the tobacco wastes. Also another plot which is fertilized at the recommended rates for each crop was included into experiment for comparing the effects of tobacco …

Studies On Mushroom Production In Aquaculture With Tuff And Perlite, Şeref Aksu, Ati̇la Günay

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In this study perlite, volcanic tuff and peat moss media were investigated for their possible use in mushroom production in aquaculture between 1994-1995. In mushroom feeding studies, 2% sucrose medium was found to be the most suitable solution for mushroom mycelium growth. Among the 6 different media each containing 2% sucrose, the effect of different rates of micro and macro elements were studied and mycelium growth was investigated. The best liquid medium in relation to the highest dry weight of mycelium was the medium labelled No. 1 which consisted of 10^-3 mol/l of macro and 10^-6 mol/l of micro nutrient …
