Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris strain W3, isolated from wine, was previously found to produce a bacteriocin with inhibitory activity towards malolactic bacteria and hence inhibit malolactic fermentation in model wine medium. The bacteriocin, which we termed mesentericin W3, was purified by multistep chromatography and found in a previous study to be similar to mesentericin Y105, albeit with a low recovery (3.2%). In this study, we aimed to achieve large-scale isolation of mesentericin W3 by adsorption of the bacteriocin from culture supernatant onto Micro-Cel (diatomite calcium silicate) and then by subsequent desorption. Water-soluble surfactants including Tween 80, Triton X-100, sodium deoxycholate, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in distilled water, organic solvents (methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile), and distilled water with a pH range of 2-10 were tested for the desorption of the bacteriocin from Micro-Cel. Mesentericin W3 was successfully desorbed from Micro-Cel with SDS, while other tested reagents were not as successful. The bacteriocin desorbed from Micro-Cel showed the same inhibitory activity as the culture supernatant. The desorbed bacteriocin was applied to an SP Sepharose Fast Flow column for final purification. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry confirmed the identity of the bacteriocin.

Rediscovery of Dichoropetalum aureum (Umbelliferae) in South Anatolia (Turkey)
ADIGÜZEL, NEZAKET; BANİ, BARIŞ; Mavi, Ozlem (2011-02-07)
Dichoropetalum aureum (BOISS. & BALANSA) PIMENOV & KLJUYKOV was collected from Turkey for the first time in 1856 and described in 1859. Although the species was collected from Lebanon and Israel, it has not been recorded from Turkey since 1856. This study comprises the recollection of Dichoropetalum aureum from the type locality and neighbouring areas after 150 years and also an expanded morphological description. Ecological parameters such as soil and climatic features are given in addition to information ...
The evolutionary divergence of Pinus nigra subsp pallasiana and its varieties based on noncoding trn regions of chloroplast genome
Gulsoy, Aysun Demet; Gulsoy, Ali Murat; Cengel, Burcu; Kaya, Zeki (2014-01-01)
The Anatolian black pine [Pinus nigra Arnold subsp. pallasiana (Lamb.) Holmboe var. pallasiana] is one of the subspecies of European black pine, growing naturally as a widespread mid-elevation species in the southern, western, and northern Anatolian Mountains of Turkey. Three well-recognized varieties [var. pallasiana, var. fastigiata Businsky with pyramidal form, and var. seneriana (Saatcioglu) Yalt. with globular-shaped crown with multiple stems] occur naturally, but the studies on them are very limited. ...
A Micromorphological study on the genus thymus lamiaceae in Turkey
Kütükalan, Damla; Doğan, Musa; Department of Biology (2019)
The genus Thymus L.(Lamiaceae) having its center of diversity in the Mediterranean distributed mainly in the Old World includes 45 species in Turkey. It belongs to the monophyletic subfamily Nepetoideae. In this study, epidermal micromorphological properties of 32 species of Thymus were examined by using scanning electron microscopy. Micromorphology of vegetative and floral organs were found to be providing good taxonomic features for understanding phylogeny of the genus.
A new species of Marrubium L. ()Lamiaceae) from Turkey
Akgül, Gençay; Ketenoğlu, Osman; Doğan, Musa (2017-12-01)
Marrubium sivasense Aytaç, Akgül & Ekici sp. nova (Lamiaceae) is described and illustrated from Central Anatolia, Turkey. The new species most resembles Marrubium depauperatum, but it differs by 3-10 flowered verticillasters, crenate to crenulated leaf margins, and unequal calyx teeth. The ecology and phenology of the new species as well as its etymology, conservation status, and diagnostic features are discussed.
A survey of East Mediterranean Dasumia (Araneae, Dysderidae) with description of new species
Elverici, Mert; Özkütük, Recep Sulhi; Kunt, Kadir Boğaç (Pensoft Publishers, 2011-10-14)
Dasumia gasparoi sp. n. is described based on specimens of both sexes. The new species is compared with the similar D. crassipalpis (Simon, 1882), described from Syria; and with D. mariandyna Brignoli, 1979, the only previously known species of the genus recorded from Turkey. Furthermore, we point out that, due to some contradictions to the original description of the genus, D. mariandyna may necessarily belong to another genus. Detailed morphological descriptions, diagnosis and figures of the copulatory or...
