Allozyme variation in bank vole, Myodes glareolus (Mammalia: Rodentia) in Northern Anatolia
Colak, Reyhan; Kandemir, Irfan; Karacan, Gul Olgun; Kankilic, Teoman; Colak, Ercument; Yigit, Nuri; Ozkurt, Sakir Onder (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2013)A total of 94 specimens from 16 populations of Myodes glareolus, collected between 2004 and 2007, from different altitudinal distributions were analyzed, using 16 enzyme systems. We found that 10 out of 22 loci (Idh-2, ... -
Allozyme variations in Anatolian populations and cytotypes of the blind mole rats (Nannospalax)
Kankilic, Teoman; Kankilic, Tolga; Sozen, Mustafa; Colak, Ercument (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2015)Enzymatic proteins encoded by 28 putative loci in 326 samples of 12 mol rat cytotypes collected from 97 localities in Anatolia were investigated by standard horizontal starch-gel electrophoresis. A total of 61 alleles were ... -
Allozyme Variations in the Genus Meriones (Gerbilinae: Rodentia) from Turkey
Yigit, Nuri; Colak, Ercument; Saygili, Fulya; Yuce, Duygu (INST ZOOLOGY, BAS, 2013)Allozymic variability of 24 loci was compared in the genus Meriones representing 5 species in Turkey. The phylogenetic relationship of these Meriones species was established according to the variations of twelve polymorphic ... -
Genetic differentiation of the Meriones tristrami (Mammalia: Rodentia) subpopulations in Turkey - inferring allozyme variations
Yigit, Nuri; Saygili Yigit, Fulya; Colak, Ercument; Colak, Reyhan; Cetinturk, Derya (TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2016)Allozyme variations of Tristram's jird Meriones tristrami, which is distributed in the steppe and semiarid areas of Turkey, were studied using 24 loci of 83 specimens from ten locations in Turkey. Seven loci were found to ... -
Genetic Diversity and Geographic Variation of Chromosomal races of Nannospalax xanthodon (Nordmann, 1840) and Nannospalax ehrenbergi (Nehring, 1898) from Turkey, Revealed by RAPD Analysis
Kankilic, Teoman; Kankilic, Tolga; Sozen, Mustafa; Colak, Ercument (INST ZOOLOGY, BAS, 2013)The level of genetic polymorphism in chromosomal races of Nannospalax xanthodon and Nannospalax ehrenbergi was determined by applying random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPDs) analysis. One hundred and fifty four mole rat ... -
Genetic variations of Turkish bank vole, Myodes glareolus (Mammalia: Rodentia) inferred from mtDNA
Colak, Reyhan; Karacan, Gul Olgun; Kandemir, Irfan; Colak, Ercument; Kankilic, Teoman; Yigit, Nuri; Michaux, Johan (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2016)The bank vole, Myodes glareolus, lives in deciduous forests throughout the Palearctic region. In Turkey, this species is distributed only in northern Anatolia (the Black Sea region) where these forests exist. This study ... -
Geographical Distribution Pattern of Mitochondrial DNA Cytochrome b Diversity in Populations of Arvicola amphibius (Linnaeus, 1758) (Mammalia: Rodentia) in Turkey as Determined by PCR-RFLP
Seker, Perincek Seckinozan; Selvi, Engin; Kankilic, Teoman; Colak, Ercument (INST ZOOLOGY, BAS, 2018)Arvicola amphibius (Linnaeus, 1758) is a semiaquatic rodent living in and around wetland habitats covered by rich vegetation. It has a broad distribution in the Palearctic and three subspecies live in Turkey. In order to ... -
Investigations on the Ecology of Eurasian Water Vole, Arvicola amphibius (Rodentia: Mammalia) in Ankara Province
Yavuz, Guliz; Colak, Ercument; Kankilic, Teoman (ZOOLOGICAL SOC PAKISTAN, 2013)The population dynamics of Arvicola amphibius were investigated in Ayas (Ankara, Turkey), during the period between August 2005 and July 2006. The method of capture-mark-recapture was used and 123 individuals were marked ... -
Morphometric and genetic structure of the edible dormouse (Glis glis): a consequence of forest fragmentation in Turkey
Helvaci, Zeycan; Renaud, Sabrina; Ledevin, Ronan; Adriaens, Dominique; Michaux, Johan; Colak, Reyhan; Colak, Ercument (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2012)Past climatic fluctuations influenced forest habitats and impacted heavily the distribution of forest species, such as the edible dormouse, by changing the distribution and composition of forests themselves. Such effects ... -
Phylogeny of species and cytotypes of mole rats (Spalacidae) in Turkey inferred from mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequencees
Kandemir, Irfan; Sozen, Mustafa; Matur, Ferhat; Kankilic, Teoman; Martinkova, Natalia; Colak, Faruk; Colak, Ercument (INST VERTEBRATE BIOLOGY AS CR, 2012)We described the genetic variation of cytochrome b gene sequences of blind mole rats in Turkey. We examined 47 individuals belonging to nine cytotypes of three superspecies Nannospalax leucodon, N. xanthodon and N. ehrenbergi ... -
Some karyological records and a new chromosomal form for Spalax (Mammalia : Rodentia) in Turkey
Sozen, Mustafa; Matur, Ferhat; Colak, Ercument; Ozkurt, Sakir; Karatas, Ahmet (INST VERTEBRATE BIOLOGY AS CR, 2006)The karyotypes of 73 specimens of subterranean mole rats of the superspecies Spalax leucodon Nordmann, 1840 from 21 localities, and six specimens of the superspecies Spalax ehrenbergi Nehring, 1898 from three localities ...
