ABO and Rh Blood Groups Frequency in Denizli Province
ULUSLARARASı HEMATOLOJI-ONKOLOJI DERGISI ARTICLE International Journal of Hematology and Oncology ABO and Rh Blood Groups Frequency in Denizli Province Yasemin I. BALCI1, Gultekin OVET2, Ibrahim E. COVUT2, Ferzan GONCU2, Meziyet YILMAZ2 1 Denizli State Hospital, Department of Pediatric Hematology 2 Denizli State Hospital, Department of Blood Transfusion Control Committee, Denizli, TURKEY ABSTRACT The history of the studies on blood groups dates back to early 20th century. Today, more than 600 antigenic structure was detected among 29 blood groups. However, ABO and Rh antigenic structure were taken into consideration in transfusion medicine. To know the rates of the blood groups in a city really helps the citizens in need and blood bank employees. There isn’t any study on frequency of blood groups in Denizli. In this study, we aimed to find out the rates of ABO and Rh blood groups in Denizli province and provide new data to the literature. This study is fulfilled by evaluation of 64.840 people, who were applied to Denizli State Hospital for identification of blood groups between January 2005 and August 2009. Blood groups were examined by gel-centrifugation method. In our study, 58.292 (89.9%) people were found Rh positive and 6548 (10.1%) people were found Rh negative. The frequency of the blood groups A, O, B, AB were found in order as 42.6%, 33.3%,16.8%, 7.4% respectively. The rates of blood groups in Denizli are similar throughout Turkey and in city basis. We consider that this study, which is the first in our city, will contribute to the literature. -

Denizli Ili Maden Ve Enerji Kaynaklari
DENİZLİ İLİ MADEN VE ENERJİ KAYNAKLARI Denizli ili gerek sanayi (tekstil, iplik, dokuma, tuğla-kiremit ve mermer vb.) ve ekonomi gerek turizm açısından Batı Anadolu Bölgesinin önemli illerinden biridir ve Batı Anadolu, İç Anadolu ve Akdeniz Bölgeleri arasında bir geçit durumundadır. Denizli ilinin her üç bölge üzerinde de toprakları vardır. Genel Müdürlüğümüzün Denizli ili ve yakın çevresinde yaptığı çalışmalar sonucunda önemli endüstriyel hammadde ve metalik maden yatağı ve zuhurları ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Bunlardan en önemlileri mermer (traverten), kum-çakıl, kuvarsit, manganez ve krom olarak sayılabilir. Balıkesir'den sonra Türkiye'nin ikinci büyük mermer ve traverten yatakları, Denizli ilinde bulunmaktadır. Kocabaş ve Kaklık mevkilerinde büyük traverten rezervleri bulunmaktadır. 1979 yılında ilk tesisin kurulmasıyla faaliyete başlayan mermer sanayii, daha sonraki yıllarda da gelişmesini sürdürmüştür. Mermer dışında endüstriyel hammaddeler bakımından Merkez ilçe kuvarsit ve kum-çakıl bakımından önemli potansiyele sahiptir. Merkez ve Buldan ilçelerinde toplam 772.500 m3 mümkün kum-çakıl rezervi, Merkez ilçesine ait Şirinköy sahasında ise toplam 82.500.000 ton kuvarsit rezervi tespit edilmiştir. Bunun dışında; Çal ilçesinde Kaklık yatağında çimento hammadesi olarak kullanılmaya elverişli 29.500.000 ton kireçtaşı ve 13.000.000 ton kil-marn rezervi tespit edilmiştir. Bu bölgede bir çimento fabrikası faaliyettedir. Metalik madenler bakımından ildeki önemli metalik madenler krom ve manganez cevherleşmeleridir. İl genelindeki önemli krom yatak ve zuhurları genelde Acıpayam ve Tavas ilçelerinde yer almaktadır. Bu sahaların toplam rezervi 1.070.000 tondur. Türkiyenin en önemli manganez yatağı bu ilde bulunmaktadır. İldeki en önemli manganez cevherleşmeleri ise Tavas ve Kale ilçelerinde gözlenmektedir. Bu ilçelerdeki toplam manganez rezervi yaklaşık 4.000.000 ton olarak belirlenmiş olup, kalan rezerv miktarı yaklaşık 2.700.000 tondur. -

Bindallı, peştamal, holta, salta, üç etek gibi yöresel giyim elemanları endüstriyel gelişme ve modern yaşantı nedeniyle sürekli değişim içinde olup zamanla unutulmaktadır. Üç parça etekten meydana geldiği için üç etek olarak anılan bu yöresel giysi gerek tarihi devirlerde gerekse günümüzde geleneksel Türk kadın giyiminin en yaygın, en çok kabul gören, özel bir modeli olmuştur. Kaybolmaya yüz tutan yöresel giyim elemanlarını tespit etmek, tanıtmak ve geleceğe taşımak gerekmektedir. Denizli İli Serinhisar İlçesinin yöresel giysilerinden olan üç etek günümüzde düğünlerde giyilmekte ve sandıklarda saklanmaktadır. Serinhisar İlçesinde kadınlar düğünlerde üç eteğin altına, kendi kumaşından beli ve bilekleri boğumlu şalvar, üç eteğin içine saten veya bürümcük kumaştan yapılmış bol, dökümlü göynek giyerler. Üç eteğin beline dokuma kuşak sarılır ve başa tel kırma başörtüsü örtülürken ayağa da yün çorap giyilerek yöreye özgü geleneksel giyim biçimi oluşturmuştur. Yöre kadınlarıyla yapılan karşılıklı görüşmelerle eskiden kullanılmış ve günümüzde kullanılmakta olan üç etekler tespit edilmiştir. Üç eteklerin dikiş özelliklerine göre teknik çizimleri yapılmış, renk, desen, kumaş, biçim, model, süsleme ve kullanım özellikleri incelenerek fotoğrafla belgelenmiştir. Toplamda ulaşılabilen 21 adet üç etek örneğinin 6’sının arşivlenebilecek özellikte olduğu sonucuna varılmış ve detayları makalede anlatılmıştır.

Bot. 26 (1): 01-05. Tehran. Acantolimon saadii is described as a new species, the specimens of the new species have been collected from a locality in Fars province. The new species belongs to Acantholimon sect. Tragacanthina subsect. Stenostoma and is most closely related to Acantholimon karelinii, a species confined to N. and NW. of Iran and adjacent areas in Caucasus and Tuekey. The differences are in the length of calyx and bracteole characters. An identification key is prepared for the species of subsection Stenostoma to include the new species. Acantholimon saadii extends the distribution of the subsection Stenostoma from Kashan area as the southernmost distribution in Isfahan province to Fars province.

The Olea Europaea L. Var. Sylvestris (Mill.) Lehr. Forests in the Mediterranean Area
Plant Sociology, Vol. 56, No. 2, December 2019, pp. 3-34 DOI 10.7338/pls2019562/01 The Olea europaea L. var. sylvestris (Mill.) Lehr. forests in the Mediterranean area L. Gianguzzi1, G. Bazan2 1Department of Agricultural, Food and Forest Sciences, University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy. 2Department of Biological, Chemical, and Pharmaceutical Sciences and Technologies, University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy. Lorenzo Gianguzzi https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9007-7604, Giuseppe Bazan https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4827-9579 Abstract This paper examines the forest communities dominated by Olea europaea L. var. sylvestris (Mill.) Lehr. that have been described up until now in the Mediterranean Region (including other isolated extrazonal areas in the northwestern Iberian Peninsula and in Northern Turkey) as more or less evolved aspects of woods, microwoods and high maquis that principally tend to make up climacic and edapho-climacic “series heads”. These forma- tions maintain a significant large-scale distributive potential within the infra- and thermomediterranean bioclimate belts (with a few penetrations into the mesomediterranean) with a dry-subhumid (and sometimes humid) ombrotype; however, they are currently quite rare and fragmented in the wake of large-scale deforestation and the impoverishment of old-growth communities dominated by a species known to live for millennia. The study was conducted through the analysis of phytosociological data taken from the scientific literature and other unpublished data regarding North-Africa (Morocco, Algeria), the Iberian Peninsula, the Balearic Islands as well as other islands from the Tyrrhenian area (Sardinia, Corsica, Sicily and its minor islands), the Italian Peninsula, the Balkan Peninsula, the Aegean region, Turkey and the southern Anatolian coast.
