dc.description.abstractThe mean micronucleated erythrocyte (MNE) frequencies and nuclear abnormalities in the peripheral blood erythrocytes of Coronella austriaca, Dolicophis schmidti and two Natrix tessellata specimens collected from Vize (K?rklareli), K?z?lcahamam (Ankara) and Digor (Kars) are reported for the first time in the present study. Different numbers of micronuclei were recorded in all snake specimens examined. In addition, three types of nuclear abnormalities were detected: nuclear bud, notched, and blebbed nuclei. The mean MNE frequency (%) was determined to be highest (0.300.08) in the N. tessellata specimen caught from K?z?lcahamam, the lowest (0.130.07) in the D. schmidti specimen caught from Digor. Nuclear abnormalities were encountered in different numbers in the specimens under examination. As a result of this examination on snakes inhabiting three regions of Turkey with different demographical and physical geographical characteristics (Thrace, Central Anatolia, and Eastern Anatolia), we conclude that similar genotoxic effects reported in the erythrocytes might occur widely due to environmental pollutant impacts. © Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania, 2014.
