Honeybee colonies from Turkey, Naxcivan (Azerbajan) and Austria were studied for morphometric and electrophoretic variation and for comparison among different subspecies. Out of six enzyme systems, four were found to be polymorphic with 14 allozymes. Discriminant function analysis of 10 morphometric variables resulted in a total of four groups. Cluster analysis of electrophoretic data showed a similar type of groupings. Among the four polymorphic loci, Mdh-1 showed the highest and Est-3 the lowest differentiation among populations.

Morphometric, mtdna and microsatellite analysis in honeybee populations (apis mellifera L.) of north and northwest İran Farhoud, Houman Jabbari; Kence, Meral; Department of Biotechnology (2004) Morphometric measurements, mitochondrial DNA analyses and 5 microsatellite loci were used to investigate variation in the honeybee populations of Iran and comparing it with the Turkish populations. Five honeybee populations were sampled from North and west north of Iran. In morphometric aspect of the study 23 characters were measured from left forewings and hindlegs of honey bee samples. The data were analysed by multivariate statistical analyses. By using mtDNA analyses length polymorphism of the intergeni...
Haplotype frequency analysis of Turkish Salix L. (Salicaceae), Kaya, Zeki (null; 2018-01-13) The genus Salix L. is represented by more than 500 species in the world where 27 species are naturally found in Turkey. This genus has been commonly used as biomass production for energy, phytoremediation and pharmacological products. The objective of this study is to estimate the haplotype frequency analysis of native willow species in Turkey. The sequence data are obtained from non-coding (trnL) and coding (matK and rbcL) cpDNA gene regions of Salix species (24 species and one hybrid). Results showed that...
Molecular phylogenetics of Turkish Salix L. species Acar, Pelin; Kaya, Zeki; Department of Biology (2017) Chloroplast (trnT-F, matK and rbcL) and nuclear genome (ITS) regions were used to explore the evolutionary relationships of Salix species which are native to Turkey. Morphological analysis with the utilization of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was also carried out. Such a combined sequence data from cpDNA and nrDNA genes enabled reliable subgenus-level classification of Turkish willows (subgenus Salix and Vetrix). Morphological and genetic results agree with traditional taxonomic concepts in clustering ...
Pseudophleum anatolicum, a New Endemic Species of Pseudophleum (Poaceae) from East Anatolia, Turkey Doğan, Musa; Sinan, Ali (2015-07-01) Pseudophleum anatolicum (Poaceae: Poeae), a new species collected from Bingol Province in East Anatolia, Turkey, is described and illustrated as the second species of the genus ever discovered. The new species is distinguished from Pseudophleum gibbum by its larger spikelets and floral parts, rather longer acuminate ligules and anthers, as well as its phytogeography.
Polymorphism of M factors in populations of the housefly, Musca domestica L., in Turkey Cakir, S; Kence, Aykut (2000-08-01) M factors, which determine maleness in Musca domestica, were found on the second, third, fourth and fifth linkage groups in housefly populations of Turkey. As in European populations, the male-determining factor was more frequently located on linkage group III (M-III). Some males homozygous or double heterozygous for M factors were identified. Deviations from a 1:1 sex ratio in favour of males, as well as mosaics for somatic marker mutations and sexual mosaics (gynandromorphs), were also observed. The resul...
