Kocaavşar Deresinden Mayıs 2020 ve Ekim tarihlerinde iki istasyondan su örnekleri alınıp suyun bazı fiziksel kimyasal parametreleri ile fitoplanktonik alg florası incelenmiştir. Yapılan analizlerde, sıcaklığı (T) 10-27°C, pH 8.77-14.70, elektriksel kondüktivite (EK) 322-712 μScm-1, nitrat azotu (NO3-N) 1.8-2.5 mgl-1, toplam azot (TN) 2.8-4 fosfat (PO4-P) 0.2-0.34 mgl-1 fosfor (TP) 0.26-0.4 aral...

This book is a collection of papers dealing with one of the most ubiquitous and troublesome nuisances of present day research in cell biology. Mycoplasma contamination of cell lines in a cell culture laboratory can cause changes in growth and biochemical properties of the cells, thus introducing uncontrolled variables into the experimental system. The papers in this book were presented at a wor...

Abstract Based on genetic and morphological evidence, Senczuk et al. (2019) formally raised the Podarcis populations from Western Pontine Islands, previously classified as several subspecies of P. siculus , to species rank, i.e. latastei (Bedriaga, 1879). This taxonomic change was not accepted in checklist European herpetofauna by Speybroeck (2020), recently published Amphibia-Reptilia. In this...

The relationship between externally measured condition (mass x length(-3)) and the mass of internal major organs in the caecilian Gegeneophis ramaswamii is investigated, based on a collection of 67 specimens from three southern Indian localities in the early and mid-monsoon. Condition in juveniles (< 90 mm total length) is higher than in subadults (90-170 mm) and adults (> 170 mm). The relation...

Telocytes (TCs) and their telopodes (Tps) have been found in various organs of many mammals, including in lower animals. However, knowledge of TCs in lower animals is still very limited. This study identified TCs and their Tps in the ileum of the Chinese giant salamander, Andrias davidianus (Amphibia: Caudata), by transmission electron microscopy. The TCs/Tps were found near epithelial cells, g...

Trontelj, P. & Gori~ki, [.: Monophyly of the family Proteidae (Amphibia: Caudata) tested by phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial 12s rDNA sequences. Nat. Croat., Vol. 12, No. 3., 113–120, 2003, Zagreb. A phylogenetic analysis of partial 12S rRNA mitochondrial gene sequences from representatives of salamandroid families provided moderate support for the monophyly of the family Proteidae, compr...
