Öğe Avenacin A-1 content of some local oat genotypes and the in vitro effect of avenacins on several soil-borne fungal pathogens of cereals(Turkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2005) Mert Türk, Figen; Egesel, Cem Ö.; Gül, M. KemalAvenacins are a mixture of 4 major (avenacin A-1, B-1, A-2 and B-2) autofluorescent compounds that are accumulated in the roots of oats (Avena spp.), especially root tips, and that have antimicrobial properties. In this research, we screened 189 genotypes of the family Gramineae for autofluorescence and also quantified 35 Avena genotypes for avenacin A-1 content, which is the most abundant and toxic avenacin type. Screening under UV transillumination proved that none of the species, except for Avena spp. accumulated avenacins in their roots. We aimed to find a genotype that lacks avenacin A-1 in order to investigate fungus-oat interaction in that particular interaction. The avenacin A-1 contents of Avena spp. varied between 4.7 and 6.5 mg g-1 fresh weight of root tips. Although there was significant statistical variation in means of avenacin A-1 contents, the search for a genotype that lacks avenacin A-1 was unsuccessful. A soil-borne fungi collection from cereals (Culvularia sp., Drechslera victoriae, Rhizoctonia solani (A-6 type), Phythium ultimum, Fusarium culmorum, F. nivale, F. oxysporum and F. poae) was also included briefly in this research to assess the antifungal activity of avenacins. According to the bioassay, all fungi exhibited inhibition zones around the oat root extract with the exception of P. ultimum. This result suggests that avenacins might contribute to fungal disease resistance and could be used for disease resistance breeding for some major root colonizing fungi. © Tübi?tak.Öğe QTL mapping and analysis of QTL x nitrogen interactions for some yield components in Brassica napus L(TUBITAK, 2003) Gül, M. KemalNitrogen (N) plays a critical role in crop production, Nowadays, it is possible to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL), as well as their effects and positions on chromosomes, by new molecular and biometrical methods. A doubled haploid rapeseed population of 142 lines from the doubled winter rapeseed cultivars Mansholt's and Samourai, and a framework map derived from an RFLP map were used for the analysis of QTL and their interactions with N in terms of some yield components obtained from field trials in Brassica napus L. The interactions between traits and N were determined by variance analysis. Two QTL for number of seeds per pod, and four QTL for thousand seed weight were mapped at N0 (0 kg/ha N). Three QTL for pod length, two QTL for number of seeds per pod and three QTL for thousand seed weight were mapped at N1 (240 kg/ha N). All the QTL of N0 and N1 were mapped by analysing QTL x N interactions for all traits. Although it was found that there was no interaction between the mapped QTL and N, the results here can be used to improve the N-use efficiency and seed yield of Brassica napus.
