Dirmenci, Tuncay; Arabacı, Turan; Özcan, Taner; Yazıcı, Türker; Martin, Esra; Çelenk, Sevcan; Açar, Mikail; Üzel, Devrim
Hybrid specimens can be occurred as same ploidy level (homoploidy) or not (polyploidy) with its parents. Homoploid hybrids are originated without any change in their ploidy level (2n) and polyploid hybrids are produced with the change in ploidy level (3n, 4n etc.). According to recent studies, the frequency of natural hybridization (homoploid and polyploid) has been estimated to 25% of all flowering plants. Recent studies show that the genus Origanum has homoploid hybrids. Hybridization is a common phenomenon among the species of Origanum in overlapping distribution habitats (natural or cultivated areas). Ietswaart suggested that the hybridization process is a significant factor in the speciation of Origanum, and Origanum is probably caused by the hybridization of the old tribe Saturejeae (now tribe Mentheae) genera. Based on the hypothesis of Ietswaart, we can discuss the emergence of the genus Origanum, its intrageneric speciation and its hybrids having the possibility for speciation via hybridization using morphological and cytological evidence. During the field studies, it was seen that many populations of wide-distributed species were overlapping, and some Origanum putative hybrid specimens were also observed in these overlapping areas with morphological differences from their parents. All studied Origanum species and hybrids have 2n = 30 chromosome numbers to define homoploidy. Palynological characters were revealed, and intermediate pollen structure (size, P/E ratio etc.) was seen in the hybrids between their parents. In addition, DNA extractions were done from all the hybrids and their parents. nrITS DNA was sequenced. Hybrid specimens have some heterozygous DNA loci in comparison to their parents. This study presents some evidence about homoploid the hybridization of the genus Origanum put forward by Ietswaart. If habitat, ecological and geographic isolations occur between the hybrids and their parents, these hybrids can be speciation via homoploid hybridization in the future.

Çimen, Okay; Corcoran, Loretta; Kuebler, Corinne; Simonetti, Stefanie S.; Simonetti, Antonio
In Turkey, the largest fluorine (F)-rare earth element (REE)-thorium (Th) deposits are located within the Eskişehir-Kızılcaören (north-western Anatolia) and the Malatya-Kuluncak (east-central Anatolia) regions, and these are associated with Oligocene extensional alkaline volcanic and Late Cretecaous-Early Paleocene postcollisional intrusive rocks, respectively. In the Kızılcaören region, the basement units include the Triassic Karakaya Complex and the Late Cretaceous oceanic units (Neotethyan suture) that are cut and overlain by phonolite and carbonatite intrusions and lava flows. In the Kuluncak region, the plutonic rocks are mainly composed of syenite, quartz syenite, and rare monzonite, and these cut the late-Cretaceous Karapınar limestone, which hosts the F-REE-Th mineralization in contact zones. A carbonatite sample from the Kızılcaören region displays both a total rare earth element (TREE) concentration (4795 ppm) and δ11B (–6.83‰) isotope composition consistent with mantle-derived carbonatite; whereas it is characterized by heavier δ13C (+1.43‰) and δ18O (+20.23‰) isotope signatures compared to those for carbonatites worldwide. In contrast, the carbonates which host the F-REE-Th mineralization in the Kuluncak region are characterized by lower TREE concentrations (5.13 to 55.88 ppm), and heavier δ13C (–0.14 to –0.75‰), δ18O (+27.36 to +30.61‰), and δ11B (+5.38 to +6.89‰) isotope ratios compared to mantle-derived carbonatites. Moreover, the combined initial87Sr/86Sr (0.70584 to 0.70759) and143Nd/144Nd (0.512238 to 0.512571) isotope ratios for samples investigated here are distinct and much more radiogenic compared to those for carbonatites worldwide, and therefore indicate significant crustal input and/or hydrothermal metasomatic-related alteration. Overall, stable and radiogenic isotope data suggest that the host carbonate rocks for the F-REE-Th mineralization in both the Kızılcaören and the Kuluncak regions consist of hydrothermally metasomatized carbonatite and limestone, respectively. The mineralization in the Kızılcaören region may potentially be related to carbonatite magmatism, whereas the mineralization in the Kuluncak region, which most likely formed through interactions between the plutonic rocks and surrounding limestone at contact metamorphism zone, involved hydrothermal/magmatic fluids associated with extensive postcollisional magmatism.

Işıl Arslan Topal, E.; Topal, Murat
Activated sludge samples were seasonally collected from the aeration tanks of the Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant located in Elazığ city (Turkey). Mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS), mixed liquor volatile suspended solids (MLVSS), total solids (TS), suspended solids (SS), volatile solids (VS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and sludge volume index (SVI) of the activated sludge were seasonally monitored in the treatment plant. Exopolymeric substances (EPS) were extracted in the samples collected. The EPS decreased in summer, while the EPS content was the highest in winter. The TB-EPS part of EPS was higher than the LB-EPS part of the EPS in all seasons. The lowest TB-EPS and LB-EPS were determined in summer, while the highest TB-EPS and LB-EPS were determined in winter. The carbohydrate, protein, and humic substance fractions of TB-EPS and LB-EPS followed the order of protein > carbohydrate > humic substance in all seasons. There was a negative correlation between the EPS content and SVI. The relationships between EPS and the removal efficiencies of TS, SS, and VS were quite low, while the relationship between COD removal and EPS was quite high.

Kahraman, Gökhan
Renewable energy sources do not harm the environment, and they contribute greatly to national economies. Hydraulic energy is the leading renewable energy source. Hydraulic energy is used more widely than other renewable energy sources around the world. This situation of hydraulic energy makes it important to solve the faults in hydraulic turbine-generator units. In this study, water hammer impacts have been investigated. This issue is important and can be dangerous in hydroelectric power plants. As a result of the research, the optimum sudden shutdown time of the adjusting wings in the snail is determined by considering the different operating conditions of a hydroelectric power plant. When the turbine-generator units are operated according to the specified instantaneous shutdown time, they will be protected against the impact of the water hammer pressure and the turbine shaft overspeed. Thus, they will be operated with less risk.

Aktitiz, İsmail; Varol, Remzi; Akkurt, Nevzat; Saraç, Mehmet Fahri
The interest of additive manufacturing with 3D printing increases day by day, which provides improved mechanical, electrical, magnetic and thermal properties of 3D parts. The production of 3D parts with the stereolithography (SLA) method, which allows it to be produced with high precision, resolution and complex geometries, distinguishes itself from other alternative additive manufacturing methods (FDM. SLS. LOM. LMD etc.). However, studies on the preparation of functional 3D polymer nanocomposites with the SLA method are quite limited. This study aims to produce silver (Ag) and/or copper (Cu) based 3D polymer nanocomposites for enhancing its mechanical strength, thermal stability and electrical conductivity. Mono and bimetallic (Cu/Ag) nanoparticles have been in-situ synthesized by selective irradiation of laser beam method using a commercial SLA device. In this method, metal (Cu/Ag) acrylate containing photocurable resin is not only cured but also leads to thermal decomposition of metal ions into nanoparticles to form functional 3D structures. The mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of polymer nanocomposites are characterized in detail. As a result of the analysis, the nanoparticles, with an average diameter of 25–55 nm, are well dispersed in the polymer matrix without agglomeration. The temperature at which 5% weight loss of Ag and Cu based polymer structures is measured as 179.3 °C while the glass transition temperature is found to be 223.81 °C. Most importantly, the resistance values are significantly decreased from 456.62 GΩ (Gigaohm) to 1.50 GΩ by increasing the amount of Ag addition at 3D polymeric structures. Therefore, this study allows the production of polymer nanocomposites not only in complex structures but also in desired properties especially for electrically conductive materials, capacitors and electronic applications.

In this study, we performed a genetic diversity using RAPD markers for some Dittrichia viscosa populations grown in the Aydın region of Turkey. Total genomic DNA isolation from the leaves of Dittrichia viscosa was performed using commercial kit. eight RAPD primers were used to determine genetic diversity among populations. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was performed with all DNA samples and primers with ability of scoreing band. PCR products were run in agarose gel and visualized under UV light. They scored as there were bands (1) and no bands (0) at all gel images and their files were created. A total of 50 characters were obtained from the primers. Phylogenetic relationships and genetic distances between the cultivars were calculated by using the PAUP* 4.0b10 analysis program. According to the PAUP data, the closest genetic distance was determined 0.20000 and between Central and İncirliova populations, the most distant genetic distance were determined 0.36842 between İncirliova and Koçarlı populations. In the phylogenetic analysis has been obtained using UPGMA algorithms and phylogenetic tree consist of two clades. The results also propose that RAPD markers are useful tools for indicating genetic relationships among Dittrichia viscosa populations.

Öğütcü, Murat
The critical tradition positions Sir Philip Sidney and Edmund Spenser among the pioneers of the nationalisticmovement in Early Modern England. From a historical point of view, this has been the result of the promotion ofBritishness by 19th and 20th century literary critics through their construction of national poets in the literarycanon. Yet, the idea of nation in the Early Modern Period was a multi-layered phenomenon in which religion,sectarianism, race, geography, and social rank were of significance. International and intranational relationshipscould be felt on a daily basis on the streets of the relatively cosmopolitan London that was populated by theEnglish, the Dutch, and the French, which were further divided into Protestants, Catholics, Puritans, and manymore groups in the 16th century. What is more, intellectual discussions about the promotion of the Englishtongue on literary and non-literary levels were far from the homogeny which our present understanding of nationalismimplies. Rather, literary and non-literary intellectual discussions were the result of the negotiations ofimitation, translation, appropriation, and experimentation. Hence, nationalism should be re-historicised from its19th and 20th century concepts to the 16th century to understand to what extent Sidney and Spenser were proudof and promoted their national identities in their works. Accordingly, this article will attempt to discuss nationalismin Sidney and Spenser‟s works with a primary focus on their poetry.
