Antigenic Relatedness Of Highly Virulent Infectious Bursal Diseaseviruses Isolated From Different Regions Of Turkey, Olcay Türe, Fethiye Çöven, Sabahattin İçin

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Antigenic relatedness of 4 highly virulent infectious bursal disease viruses (Agean: G34, G35; Marmara: G41; Central Anatolia: ETL3) isolated from infectious bursal disease outbreaks that occured during 1990's in Turkey were investigated compara-tively with the reference serotype 1 classic D78 strain, variant E (Ev) and serotype 2 OH viruses by cross virus neutralization (VN). Antigeanic relatedness values (R) for all the viruses were calculated from geometric mean antibody titers of minimum of three tests. Cross-neutralization studies indicated that there are 2 antigenic sub-groups exist among the regional highly virulent viruses. G34, G41 and ETL3 strains that were isolated from clinical …

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Structural protein profiles and antigenic ralatedness of the regional viruses (Agean:G34, G35; Marmara:G41; Central Anatolia:ETL3) isolated from the infectious bursal disease outbreaks in Turkey were examined comparatively with the serotype 1 classic (D78) and variant (E variant) strains using the SDS-PAGE (Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) and Western immunoblotting techniques. SDS-PAGE analysis of 3 purified field (G34, G35, ETL3) and 1 reference (D78) viruses showed that local viruses had the same protein profiles with the serotype 1 reference strain. VP2(40K), VP3(32K) and VPX(48K) were the proteins identified in Coomassie blue stained gels. In this study, it was not possible …


Linear Regression Analysis With Missing Observations Among Theindependent Variables In Animal Breeding, G. Tamer Kayaalp Jan 1999

Linear Regression Analysis With Missing Observations Among Theindependent Variables In Animal Breeding, G. Tamer Kayaalp

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In animal breeding, when there is a relationship between the dependent (Y) and independent (X) variables, regression analysis is applied. But when one of the variables has one or more missing observations regression analysis cannot be applied. This paper illustrates and discusses a regression analysis in which the independent variable (X) has a missing observation.

The Importance Of \Omega-3 Series Fatty Acids In Marine Fish Larvae Nutrition And Recent Developments, Abdurrahman Polat, Gülsün Özyurt Jan 1999

The Importance Of \Omega-3 Series Fatty Acids In Marine Fish Larvae Nutrition And Recent Developments, Abdurrahman Polat, Gülsün Özyurt

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In general, marine fish larvae require \omega-3 HUFA, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Larval growth, survival and larval activity are affected by dietary levels of essantial fatty acids. Some pathological signs, such as abnormal pigmentation, hydrops etc. and low feed conversion efficiency, poor growth, mass mortality are related to \omega-3 HUFA series fatty acids deficiency in larvae food. EPA/DHA ratio in live foods or microencapsuled diets is an important factor in larval development and survival.
