The main reasons for low yield are the completion of the economic life of hazelnut orchards and the lack of pruning following the technique. Hazelnuts are being grown with the ‘ocak’ system in Turkey. The ocak system is a bush-like growing technique that does not contain the main trunk but consists of shoots instead. It is necessary to maintain the optimum number of shoots per ocak to increase yield and quality in this system. The effects of different branch numbers on yield and fruit quality parameters of ‘Tombul’ and ‘Palaz’ hazelnut cultivars were investigated in Ordu ecological conditions. ‘Palaz’ had the highest yield per ocak in 8 branches (1460.19 g), while ‘Tombul’ had in the 5 branched ocak (2170.47 g). ‘Palaz’ and ‘Tombul’ had the highest fruit weights in 4 and 4–6 branches, respectively. The highest oil ratio of ‘Palaz’ was observed in 4 branches, while ‘Tombul’ had the highest in 5 branches. The highest kernel ratio was determined in 6 and 5 branches in ‘Palaz’ and ‘Tombul’, respectively. The ocaks with 4 and 5 branches Citation: Bak, T.; Karadeniz, T. were mostly expressed higher values, and it is foreseen that the number of branches should not Effects of Branch Number on Quality exceed 6 to reduce the competition of the branches and to obtain good quality products.

Introduction Academic Editors: Kourosh Vahdati, Anita Solar and Neus Aletà Hazelnut is one of the important Turkey-originated fruit species. Turkey has quality cultivars and suitable areas for hazelnut production. The hazelnut growing areas in Turkey ◦ ◦ Received: 18 March 2021 are at 40–41 North and 37–42 East coordinates. The Black Sea coast is the most suitable Accepted: 23 April 2021 area in terms of ecologic conditions for hazelnut cultivation within these limits [1–3]. On the Published: 12 May 2021 Black Sea coast, hazelnut growing areas reach 80 km from the coast and 1300 m altitude [4]. In Turkey, hazelnut is cultivated in 16 provinces, including the oldest grower provinces, Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral Giresun and Ordu.

Giresun University, Alucra Turan Bulutçu Vocational School, Giresun 28700, Turkey 2. Karadeniz Technical University, Department of Biology, Trabzon 61080, Turkey Abstract: 20 localities were randomly selected in Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey and samples were collected from around the beehives from April to September. Total of 4,640 dead adult worker bees were examined during the study. Total infection rate in worker bees was 21.23%. Nosema ceranae was identified in all localities with molecular techniques. Temperature and humidity values were measured from around the beehives during field studies. The infection rate of N. ceranae increased proportionally with increasing temperature and humidity factors. Humidity was more effective than temperature on the infection rate of N. ceranae. The seasonal activity of N. ceranae was studied. The highest infection rates were observed in June and July. N. ceranae infection rate was higher in localities that were in low-altitude than in localities that were in high-altitude.

Although the intensity of the efforts varied greatly, place name change would continue through the end of the Ottoman Empire and on into the Republic of Turkey. By 1968, when a volume containing all the changes was published by the Interior Ministry, roughly thirty percent of settlement names in Turkey had been changed. Renaming continued sporadically until the 1990s. This thesis inquires into these attempts at name change in Turkey with a focus on how people responded to the changes in their everyday lives. The value of place names as formulated in human and cultural geography is explored in order to determine why people may have rejected or accepted the state imposed names. Place name change, rather than being approached solely as a nation-building project motivated by Turkification, is also considered as being a technique of governmentality.

  • Yeni Bir Belgeye Göre XVI. Yüzyılın İlk Yarısında Osmanlı Mülâzemet Sistemi
    ERCAN ALAN Yeni Bir Belgeye Göre XVI. Yüzyılın İlk Yarısında Osmanlı Mülâzemet Sistemi Ercan Alan* Ottoman Mulâzamat System in the First Half of the 16th Century in the Light of a New Document Abstract Mulazemet was a prerequisite for joining the Ottoman ilmiye establish- ment. This paper is a study of a mulazemet register dated 906-911 Hijri (1501- 1506), the earliest mulazemet register found so far. It shows that the mulazemet system gained its shape and form in the reign of Bayezid II. Although it is known that mulazemet system was in use since the end of the 15th century, how it was applied has remained obscure. It is generally accepted that mulazemet system was systematized by Ebussuud Efendi in the second half of 16th century during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent. Beginning with İsmail Hakkı Uzunçarşılı, several researchers have studied different aspects of the issue, still, the development of the mulazemet system has remained in the dark. A detailed analysis of this register shows that mulazemet was already a systematized practice during the reign of Bayezid II.

THIS IS NOT A FESTIVAL. TRANSHUMANCE-BASED ECONOMIES ON TURKEY'S UPLAND PASTURES Nicolas Elias (Translated by Saskia Brown) ABSTRACT This article sets out to study how an instituted practice of pastoral societies has evolved under the industrialised, capitalist Turkey of the last decade. In the Pontic Mountains, in north-eastern Turkey, the celebrations that take place every summer on the upland pastures are some of the most eagerly-awaited events. Until recently they were related to pastoralism and transhumance. But, although pastoralism has collapsed, the number and popularity of these events is growing yearly. When the ethnographic study of the most famous of them (Kadirga) is related to recent social transformations in Turkey (migration, development of the culture industry, urbanisation, etc.), it becomes clear how such celebrations are instrumentalised by the new political economy.

Different terranes can be defined and characterized by their dominant geological background. The Pontides domain represents a segment of the former active margin of Eurasia, where back-arc basins opened in the Triassic and separated the Sakarya terrane from neighbouring regions. Sakarya was re-accreted to Laurasia through the Balkanic mid-Cretaceous orogenic event that also affected the Rhodope and Strandja zones. The whole region from the Balkans to the Caucasus was then affected by a reversal of subduction and creation of a Late Cretaceous arc before collision with the Anatolian domain in the Eocene. If the Anatolian terrane underwent an evolution similar to Sakarya during the Late Paleozoic and Early Triassic times, both terranes had a diverging history during and after the Eo-Cimmerian collision.

    MYCOTAXON Volume 109, pp. 137–140 July–September 2009 Additional lichen records from Giresun Province, Turkey Kadir Kınalıoğlu [email protected] Giresun University, Faculty of Science and Arts, Department of Biology Giresun, Turkey Abstract – A total of 299 lichen taxa are presented from 52 sampling stations in the Turkish province of Giresun. Of these 5 species are new to Turkey, viz. Biatora cuprea, Collema dichotomum, Gyalecta foveolaris, Umbilicaria virginis and Verrucaria fusconigrescens, and 110 species are new to Giresun. The complete checklist is available on http://www.mycotaxon.com/resources/weblists.html. Key words – biota, biodiversity, Karagöl Mountains Introduction Despite intense lichenological field activity in Turkey in recent years, many areas remain poorly known with respect to their lichen biota. As to Giresun province, until now 14 research articles on its lichen biota have been published (Aslan et al. 2002, Aslan & Yazıcı 2006, Duman & Yurdakulol 2007, Halıcı & Şenkardeşler 2009, John & Breuss 2004, Kınalıoğlu 2005, 2006, 2008, Kınalıoğlu & Engin 2004, Küçük 1990, Özgen et al. 2003, Steiner 1909, Süleyman et al. 2002, Yazıcı 2006, Yazici & Aptroot 2008). However, these studies still do not give an adequate picture of the lichen biota of Giresun as new fieldwork by the author has shown. This provided many additions to our knowledge of the lichens of Giresun and Turkey, which are presented below. The study area Giresun is located in the eastern part of the Black Sea region of Turkey (Fig. 1), at the boundary of the Euxianian section of the Euro-Siberian Phytogeographical Region. It is situated between 40°07’ 41°08’ N and 37°50’ 39°12’ E at altitudes ranging from sea level to 3331 m.

  • Investigation of Antimicrobial Effect of Honey Collected from Various Regions of Turkey
    Apiacta 4, 2001 INVESTIGATION OF ANTIMICROBIAL EFFECT OF HONEY COLLECTED FROM VARIOUS REGIONS OF TURKEY H. SELCUK, K. NEVIN Hacettepe University, Faculty of Science, Department of Biology 06532-Beytepe/Ankara, TURKEY E-mail: [email protected] Summary The antimicrobial effect of honey was evaluated by an in vitro study testing the growth of various Gram-negative and Gram- positive bacteria and a yeast in media containing varying concentrations of honey. A total of seventy three honey samples collected from various regions of Turkey were tested for their antimicrobial activity. It was found that most of the honey samples at a concentration of 50% and above exerted inhibitory effects on bacteria but not on the yeast. Honey collected from Rize-Anzer region was found the most effective honey on clinically bacterial isolates. Key words: Honey/honeybee/antibacterial effect/natural products Introduction Honey is a nutritiously rich food product that is consumed by human populations throughout the world. Besides its nutritional value, it also contains antibacterial agents with different floral activity. It was re- ported that honey had antimicrobial activity, against a number of Gram positive and Gram negative bacte- ria[16; 19; 8; 15; 4; 1] and Candida albicans[9]. The antibacterial activity of honey has been attributed both to physical factors: osmolority[14; 5; 17] and acidity[5; 11; 18] and chemical factors: hydrogenperoxide[1,17], cecropin-A and mellitin, methyl 3,5-dimethoxy-4- hydroxybenzoate, methyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoicid, 3,5-dimethoxy-4 hydroxy- benzoic acid (syringic acid), tetracyclin, nectar, volatiles, propolis and unidentified substances from certain floral sources[4; 12; 6; 15; 2; 3; 19; 18].
