Tinatin DOOLOTKELDİEVA | Saykal BOBUŞOVA

The plant diseases caused by the Pseudomonas syringae сomplex bacteria are economically important and occur worldwide on various plants, and it is as a pathogen that has not been the object of studies and little is known about its epidemiology in Kyrgyzstan. The conventional phenotypic (LOPAT, API tests) and PCR-assisted isolation were used for the identificationof Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringaе isolates from the affected organs of local stone fruits, such as peach (Prunus persica), cherry (Prunus subgen), apricot (Prunus armeniaca), and plum (Prunus salicina) samples taken from the Chy, Is ...More

The Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Lead (Pb)Applications on Eggplant Seedling Growth and Nutrient Uptake

Mustafa PAKSOY | Önder TÜRKMEN

There are many factors, which negatively affect plant development. One of these factors is lead (Pb), which causes toxic effects on plants during the seedling period. Mycorrhizas (AMF) contribute positively to plant growth. In eggplant seedlings, it has been researched whether to tolerate the negative effects of lead with mycorrhizas. In the study, Gigaspora margarita (Gm) and Glomus intraradices (Gi) mycorrhizal races were applied before seeds were sown. After the first true leaves appeared, 5 different doses of Pb (0, 100, 200, 400 and 800 ppm) were given. As a result, the earliest true leaf ...More

First Molecular Evidence for Mycoplasma haemocanis and Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum in Asymptomatic Shelter Dogs in Kyrgyzstan = Kırgızistan’da Asemptomatik Barınak Köpeklerinde Mycoplasma haemocanis ve Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum İçin İlk Moleküler Kanıt

Ayperi Aytmırza Kızı | Zarima CUMAKANOVA | Ayday CUNUŞOVA

Mycoplasma haemocanis (Mhc) and Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum (CMhp) have been investigated using species specific PCR and sequencing in 170 dogs from Kyrgyzstan. Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of the infection rates with 95% confidence intervals (CI) was calculated. The molecular prevalence of hemoplasma infection was 5.29% (CI 2.57-9.34). It was found that, five (2.94%, CI 1.06-6.22) samples were found to be infected with Mhc, one (0.59%, CI 0.03-2.57) sample with CMhp and three (1.76%, CI 0.44-4.52) samples with both species. These results demonstrate that dogs can be exposed to ...More

Genetic Relationships and Population Structure of Central Asian Apple Species collected from Different Parts of Kyrgyzstan

Abdıkerim ABDULLAYEV

Apple is among the most widely grown fruit species worldwide. It is included in the genus Malus and there are several species of apple. Although a consensus is not available about the origin of domesticated apples, it is widely accepted that Malus sieversii, known as Central Asia wild apple, was the primary progenitor of apples. Central Asia is a quite significant origin center of apple and harbors different species and a great diversity. In this study, genetic relations among 79 apple materials belonging to 4 different species (M. domestica, M. sieversii, M. kirghisorum and M. niedzwetzkyana) ...More

İsmail ŞEN

This study was performed to evaluate the end systolic wall stress/end-systolic volume index ratio (ESWS/ESV-I) for LV systolic function in Anatolian shepherd dogs (ASHs) with stage B2 degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD). Thirty-eight adult ASHs with DMVD (experimental group; 20 B1 dogs and 18 B2 dogs) and 30 weight-matched adult healthy ASHs (control group) were used as subjects. There was no overlap for the ESW5/ESV-I ratio (0.83 +/- 0.03, range: 0.61-1.09 for B2 dogs, 1.34 +/- 0.05, range: 1.11-1.89 for B1 dogs, 2.171 +/- 0.0 range: 1.91-3.02 for the control dogs) among the groups.
