Determining The Genetic Diversity Of Silkworm Lines In Turkey, Ezgi̇ Odabaş, İbrahi̇m Cemal
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Studies involving molecular genetic characterization of silkworms are quite limited. Therefore, with this study, pure and hybrid silkworm lines raised in Turkey was characterized for the first time by microsatellite DNA markers. Samples were collected from 7 different silkworm lines, of which the pure lines were obtained from the Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry in Bursa and the hybrid ones from Silkworm Cocoon Association of Turkey (Kozabirlik). DNA samples were extracted from silkworm eggs. Genotyping was done by combining a total of 16 microsatellite markers in a single multiplex. Two hundred and eighty-one alleles were observed for 16 microsatellite …

This research aims to determine the morphometric characteristics of the donkey (Equus asinus) populations reared in Turkey. For this purpose, live weights and body measurements were collected from 500 donkeys. The donkeys were grouped according to the factors of color, age, sex, and province and the live weights (LW) (kg), withers heights (WH), rump heights (RH), body lengths (BL), chest circumferences (CC), chest depths (CD), front shank circumferences (FSC), head lengths (HL) and ear lengths (EL) (cm) of the donkeys were measured. In the study, the males were found to have higher values of live weight, withers height, rump height, …

Background/aim: CoronaVac is an inactivated virus-based COVID-19 vaccine used in Turkey and approved for emergency use by the World Health Organization (WHO). In this study, it was aimed to retrospectively evaluate the mutation status and clinical status in individuals who received two doses of CoronaVac vaccine and were infected with COVID-19 at least two weeks after the second dose. Materials and methods: 164 people were included in the study and COVID-19 diagnosis and mutation analyses were determined by RT-PCR using the Bioseepdy SARS CoV-2 Double Gene RT-qPCR Kit and the Biospeedy SARS-CoV-2 Variant Plus kit in accordance with the protocol …

Background/aim: We aimed to analyze the usefulness of such a reserved area for the admission of the patients' symptoms suggesting COVID-19 and compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients with COVID-19 and without COVID-19 who were admitted to C1 during the first month of the COVID-19 outbreak in our hospital. Materials and methods: A new area was set up in Hacettepe University Adult Hospital to limit the contact of COVID-19 suspicious patients with other patients, which was named as COVID-19 First Evaluation Outpatient Clinic (C1). C1 had eight isolation rooms and two sampling rooms for SARS-CoV-2 polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR). …

Background/aim: There is limited data on COVID-19 disease in children with kidney disease. We aimed to investigate the characteristics and prognosis of COVID-19 in pediatric nephrology patients in Turkey. Materials and methods: This was a national, multicenter, retrospective cohort study based on an online survey evaluating the data between 11th March 2020 and 11th March 2021 as an initial step of a detailed pediatric nephrology COVID-19 registry. Results: Two hundred and three patients (89 girls and 114 boys) were diagnosed with COVID-19. One-third of these patients (36.9%) were between 10-15 years old. Half of the patients were on kidney replacement …
