The Effect Of The Duration Of Alkali Treatment On The Solubility Of Polyoses, Mualla Balaban, Güneş Uçar Jan 1999

The Effect Of The Duration Of Alkali Treatment On The Solubility Of Polyoses, Mualla Balaban, Güneş Uçar

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Holocelluloses from the wood of pine and oak species growing naturally in Turkey were extracted with 5% KOH solution under specified conditions, and soluble polyoses and lignin were examined. The extractions of both pine and oak wood holocelluloses followed the mechanism of second order reaction. While the glucomannan of pine was poorly dissolvable during the extraction, xylan, the main polyose of hardwoods, was removed very efficiently upto almost 90 %. The solubility of xylane also obeyed the some kinehes. By the equation [ A ] 1- n - [ A 0 ] 1-n = ( n-1) kt, where n=2, for …

Effect Of Use Of Pure Yeast Culture (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae-K1) On Aromatic Compounds Of Emir Wine, Turgut Cabaroğlu, Ahmet Canbaş, Zi̇ya Günata, Claude Bayonove

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In this study, aroma compounds of the wines obtained from white Emir grapes grown in Nevşehir-Ürgüp region by spontanous fermentation and by use of pure culture of "Saccharomyces cerevisiae-K1" were investigated. Aroma compounds were extracted by Amberlit XAD-2 resin and were eluted by pentan/dichloromethane (2/1) solvent and then analysed by gas chromatography and identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A comparison of the aroma compounds of the wines obtained by spontanous fermentation and by use of pure culture showed that the latter contained higher amount of high alcohols and carbonyl compounds, and lower amount of volatile phenols, esters being …

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

This study was carried out in 1995 on Mahalep (Prunus mahaleb L.) seeds an important rootstock for sour cherry and sweetcherry trees. In this research, effects of seed coat removal, GA_3, H_2SO_4, preserved in cold and hot water, at 20 - 24ºC and 2 - 4 ºC, stratification in field on germination of mahaleb seeds were investigated. Fourteen different treatments were applied to seeds. The highest average germination was obtained by soaking the seeds removed coats for 24 hours in a solution of GA_3 at 1000 ppm + stratification for twelve weeks at 2 - 4ºC. While the seeds preserved …

Detection Of A New Medium For Budwood Culture In Vitro Of Citrus, Gülşen Şaş Sertkaya, Ahmet Çinar Jan 1999

Detection Of A New Medium For Budwood Culture In Vitro Of Citrus, Gülşen Şaş Sertkaya, Ahmet Çinar

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The transfer of new and quality citrus species and cultivars from one country or growing area to another may lead to the introduction of new pests and diseases. Therefore the import and direct production of citrus budwood without adequate control measures has a high risk. The citrus virus and virus-like disease agents can be successfully eliminated using the shoot-tip grafting (STG) technique which is routinely used to obtain virus-free plants in citrus improvement programs in major citrus-growing countries. Many methods are used to obtain flushes as a source of scion material for STG in vitro. The budwood culture in vitro …

The Relationships Between Soil Properties And Nutritional Status Of Strawberry Plants Grown In Anamur And Silifke Districts, Ali̇ İnal, Aydin Güneş, Mehmet Alpaslan

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In order to determine the fertility of soil and nutritional status of strawberry plants grown in the districts of Anamur and silifke, 24 soil and 37 plant samples were collected and analysed. According to the results, 33% of Anamur soils showed high salinity. However, almost all the soils from Silifke showed a non-saline character. Organic matter deficiency was detected in 25% and 67% of the soils of Anamur and silifke, respectively. Approximately 10% of soils in Anamur showed nitrogen deficiency. Both of the districts have suffered available P deficiency, but it is more serious in Silifke. In Anamur, K deficiency …

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In this study the effect of fungicides (Pomarsol WB 80, Thiran tetramethylthiuram disülfide), (Mitikol, Pentachloronitrobenzene), insecticide (Rubigan 12 EC, (2,4-dichloro (pyrimidine-5-yl) benzylhydryl alchol) and herbicide, (Platoon, (N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine) which are commonly used in agriculture were investigated on soil microbiota (Total viable bacteria, Actinomycetes, Anaerobic bacteria, Aerob endospore-forming, Proteolytic bacteria, Cellülolytic microorganisms and Yeast-mold). It was determined that in the platoon-treated soil sample the total viable bacteria number was found to be excessive than that of the control groups during the incubation.

A Study On The Relationship Of Yield With Stability In Lentil, Meti̇n Altinbaş, Bahatti̇n Tanyolaç Jan 1999

A Study On The Relationship Of Yield With Stability In Lentil, Meti̇n Altinbaş, Bahatti̇n Tanyolaç

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Two lentil ( Lens culinaris medic. ) populations, one of them were of large-seeded genotypes and other one were small-seeded genotypes, were tested at one location in 1990 and at two locations in the years of 1991 and 1992 and some stability statistics were estimated for grain yield. The relationship between yield and stability were studied in both populations using the simple correlations among mean yields and six stability parameters. The significant correlations between mean yield and stability statistics (b, r^2, s^2_d, W^2, \sigma^2) except S^2 occurred in large-seeded genotypes, while all stability parameters were not significantly correlated with mean …


Compatiple And Noncompatiple Stem Taper Equations For Alder, Hakki Yavuz, Nedi̇m Saraçoğlu Jan 1999

Compatiple And Noncompatiple Stem Taper Equations For Alder, Hakki Yavuz, Nedi̇m Saraçoğlu

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In this study, compatible and noncompatible stem taper equations were developed for alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.) depending on 510 sample trees data taken from alder stands in Black Sea Region. For estimating only stem tapers of sample trees, the noncompatible stem taper equation developed by Kozak (10) was the best according to average residual (bias), standart deviation of residuals (precision) and percent variation explained criteria, among all compatible and noncompatible stem taper equations tested in this study. Besides, according to the same criteria, for estimating stem tapers, total tree volume and volume ratios together, the compatible stem taper equation …
