Öğe Determination of awareness, attitude and sensitiveness of dog owners and levels of understanding of dog body language(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2023) Seker, Ibrahim; Erten, Omer; Koseman, AbdurrahmanThis research was carried out to determine the identification of the awareness, attitude and sensitiveness of dog owners in Turkiye, and levels of understanding the body language of dogs. The research material consisted of data obtained from face-to-face surveys with randomly selected 172 dog owners. In the study, the differences between the education level categories of dog owners were found to be statistically significant (P<0.01), but not for marital status, child ownership, age and household income (P>0.05). In addition, the rate of those who did not have children was found to be higher among those who adopted dogs for the reasons of animal love/compassion (58.6%) and feeling of loneliness (75.0%). According to the findings, dog owners spend a maximum of 1-2 hours with their dogs during the day. Men have more difficulty in caring for their dogs than women due to lack of time, financial constraints and other reasons. In this study, dog owners were able to correctly identify 10 of the 20 images of dog body language at a medium and high level (50.0-95.3%), and 10 of them at a low and very low level (47.7-4.1%). As a result; It is important for those who want to have a dog to make an attempt by questioning whether they have the necessary time, energy and financial means. In addition, it is thought that it is important to learn the body language of dogs, that there is a need for institutional structures that will help people who own or want to acquire dogs in this regard and in the field of general breeding, and teach them the requirements of their responsibilities.Öğe Determination of udder and teat linear morphological traits in Awassi and Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) Ewes(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2024) Seker, Ibrahim; Kul, Selim; Koseman, AbdurrahmanThis study was carried in order to evaluate the linear morphological characteristics of the udder and teats in the breeder conditions of Awassi and Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) ewes ( Ovis aries ) and to determine the udder types, lactation milk yield and the lactation period of the ewes. One hundred two Awassi and 61 Bafra ewes were included in the study. The means of the linear scores of udder depth, udder furrow, udder attachment, teat shape, teat angle and teat placement in Awassi ewes were determined as 6.10 +/- 0.27, 6.33 +/- 0.27, 4.49 +/- 0.27, 6.49 +/- 0.33, 3.98 +/- 0.29, and 1.47 +/- 0.14, respectively. The same parameters were determined as 6.31 +/- 0.28, 6.77 +/- 0.32, 5.72 +/- 0.24, 1.20 +/- 0.11, 1.72 +/- 0.26, and 1.20 +/- 0.11, respectively, in Bafra ewes. Significant differences were found between Awassi and Bafra breeds in terms of udder types ( P <0.01). The type 3 udder, suitable for milking, was determined at the highest rate in both breeds, but type 2 udder was not detected in Awassi ewes. Statistically significant differences were found between Awassi and Bafra ewes in terms of linear morphological characteristics of udder and teat, udder attachment, teat shape, teat angle and 60 th day milk yield, daily average milk yield and lactation period ( P <0.01). Lactation milk yield and lactation period were calculated as 139.85 +/- 5.31 kg and 208.53 +/- 4.471 days, respectively, in Awassi ewes and 145.91 +/- 9.97 kg and 175.23 +/- 4.635 days in Bafra ewes, respectively. As a result, in order for linear udder characteristics to be used safely as an indirect selection criterion, there is a need for studies with a higher number of ewes and to calculate the repeatability and heritability.Öğe Identification of the psychological and behavioral conditions of cats from owners' perspective during the COVID-19 pandemic in Türkiye(Univ Cordoba, 2025) Ozturk, Yahya; Erten, Omer; Seker, Ibrahim; Koseman, AbdurrahmanObjective. This study aims to examine the psychological and behavioral status of domestic cats (Felis catus) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and methods. Study's material included the data collected from the responses of 306 cat owners who participated in the survey voluntarily. Results. During the study, 36.9% of the participating cat owners reported that their cats had some abnormal behaviors besides their normal behaviors during the pandemic. The most frequently mentioned abnormal behaviors were increased meowing (38.8%) and a greater desire for close contact (38.8%). Furthermore, 4.4% of cat owners said that their cats had abnormal behaviors like not using the litter box and urinating everywhere. Conclusions. As a result, the majority of cat owners who have participated in this study stated that there was no significant change in the mood and behavior of their cats during the COVID-19 pandemic, that it was beneficial to be a cat owner, and that they did not face many difficulties in taking care of their cats. Pets, with whom people spent more time during the pandemic, should be monitored in terms of animal welfare after the pandemic. Providing pet owners with information on special animal welfare would be beneficial in understanding the changes in human-animal interactions in similar pandemics and managing this process effectively.Öğe Investigation of the effects of in ovo taurine injection on hatching characteristics and stress reduction potential(Wiley, 2024) Baykalir, Yasin; Simsek, Ulku Gulcihan; Seker, Ibrahim; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Gul, Burcu; Eroglu, Mehmet; Mutlu, Seda IflazogluBackgroundIn ovo application is the process of administering some nutrients or components into the egg. The main purpose of this application is to ensure that some nutrients are provided to chicks with a short incubation period. Few studies were conducted with taurine in fertile eggs; especially, no observation of hatchability and chick quality has been found. In addition, taurine has an anti-stress impact that fights oxidative factors.ObjectiveTo assess the hatchability and chick quality after in ovo taurine administration. To determine the stress that may occur as a result of in ovo application and whether taurine has a stress-reducing effect.MethodsA total of 1200 fertile eggs from a 34-week-old broiler breeder (Ross 308) flock were categorized into 4 groups with 75 eggs per replicate: control (uninjected), taurine group (0.30 mL dissolved taurine in distilled water), sham control (sterile distilled water) and perforation (eggs perforated and then waxed). On day 14 of incubation, an in ovo injection was administered to the albumen. Data on hatching parameters and hepatic HSP70 levels were obtained using relevant formulas and western blotting, respectively.ResultsControl chicks exhibited higher hatchability than other groups, with the taurine group showing the lowest hatchability. The HSP70 levels were the highest in the perforation group compared to the control group. An increase of 21.37% in the taurine group and 83.45% in the sham control group was observed compared to the control group.ConclusionsThe findings suggest that in ovo application may induce increased stress, whereas taurine may have positive effects in mitigating the stress caused by in ovo application. In ovo application causes stress. In ovo taurine administration showed a stress reduction effect the stress caused by in ovo application. Control chicks exhibited higher hatchability. imageÖğe Parentage verification and genetic diversity of the Arabian and Thoroughbred horse populations in Türkiye using microsatellite analysis(Gesellschaft Schweizer Tierarztinnen & Tierarzte, 2023) Yarali, Cevdet; Ozsensoy, Yusuf; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Seker, Ibrahim; Toprak, Burhan; Zengin, KemalThis study aimed to determine the effectiveness of parentage verification in Arabian and Thoroughbred horses in Turki-ye using microsatellite markers. A total of 813 Arabian and 959 Thoroughbred horses were genotyped using a total of 17 microsatellite markers. The mean effective number of alleles was 3,34 and the mean number of alleles was 7,41 in Arabian horses. It was calculated that the mean He and Ho values in Arabian horses were 0,677 and 0,680, respective-ly. The mean effective number of alleles was 3,55 and the mean number of alleles was 6,59 in Thoroughbred horses. It was calculated that the mean Ho and He values in Thor-oughbred horses were 0,697 and 0,684, respectively. When the studied Arabian and Thoroughbred horse populations are considered as a single population, the mean FIT, FST and FIS values were found to be 0,063, 0,074 and, - 0,011, re-spectively. Also, 4 loci in Arabian horses and 3 loci in Thor-oughbred horses significantly deviated from HWE. The mean PIC value was 0,63 in Arabian horses and 0,64 in Thoroughbred horses. As a result; the microsatellites includ-ing the most informative 15 and 9 loci had a total value of > 0,9999 (11 and 7 loci > 0,999) in each population for PE - 1 and PE - 3, respectively. It has been concluded that parentage verification and genetic identification can be made successfully in the Arabian and Thoroughbred horse populations by using the microsatellite markers panel.Öğe Phylogenetic and bottleneck analysis of the Turkish Arabian and Thoroughbred horse populations(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2023) Yarali, Cevdet; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Ozsensoy, Yusuf; Seker, Ibrahim; Toprak, Burhan; Zengin, KemalThis study aimed to determine the phylogenetic and bottleneck analyses of Turkish Thoroughbred and Arabian horse populations. In the study, genotyping was performed using a total of 17 microsatellite markers in the samples taken from 959 Thoroughbred and 813 Arabian horses. The average effective allele number in Arabian horses was 3.338 and the average number of alleles was 7.412 in Thorougbred horses. Genetic distance and genetic identity between Thoroughbred and Arabian breeds was 0.411 and 0.663, respectively. Also genetic identity in each Arabian and Thoroughbred horse populations was 1.000. The FCA table showed that the two breeds were completely separated from each other and were compatible. In conclusion; the bottlenecks of Thoroughbred and Arabian horse populations were in a normal L distribution and these horse breeds do not appear to have succumbed to introgression. Therefore, they are not yet at risk of extinction any time soon.Öğe POLLEN AND FUNGAL SPORE COMPOSITION VARIATIONS OF HONEYS ACCORDING TO DIFFERENT FEEDING METHODS(Pakistan Botanical Soc, 2023) Yil, Gulsah; Karlidag, Semiramis; Akyol, Abuzer; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Uyumlu, Ayse Burcin; Yilmaztekin, Murat; Seker, IbrahimHoney samples were collected from two districts of Malatya (Eastern Turkey) Battalgazi and Dogansehir for melissopalynological analysis after the honey season in 2018. The survey was conducted to 3 different feeding groups, Glucose, Sucrose, Bee Feed and a Control group in each study area. The samples were prepared according to Louveaux et al., (1978) procedure. Melissopalynological examinations were done to determine both pollen grains and fungal spores for each feeding group and districts. According to the microscopic analyses the dominant pollen types were determined as Astragalus, Cistus, Poaceae, Verbascum, Echium, Berberis, Artemisia, Plantago, Vicia, Onobrychis, Cichorioideae, Astragalus pollen grains were most frequent in glucose and control groups, Cistus pollen grains were widely represented in sucrose and bee feed groups in both study area. Dominant fungal spore types were determined as Aspergillus / Penicillium, Urediniospores, Cladosporium and Myrotechium. Aspergillus / Penicillium spores were dominated almost all samples by varying degrees. Analysis of pollen grains and fungal spores is useful instrument for determining the botanical, geographical and ecological sources of honey. This paper could be guide to beekeepers for selecting convenient apiary domains and appropriate feeding methods for qualitative honeys and the study is also help agriculturists for increasing the crop yield, the bees could be diverting to less-preferred plants during forages by sugar manipulation in order to cultivation improving.Öğe Reproductive and productive characteristics in Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) ewes, growth, carcass performance and survivability of lambs(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2023) Koseman, Abdurrahman; Kul, Selim; Seker, Ibrahim; Kocyigit, Sezgin; Karaca, MehmetThis study was carried out on Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) breed to determine the fertility characteristics of sheep, growth performance, survivability and carcass weights of lambs. For this purpose, the reproductive characteristics of 600 sheep aged 2-5 years and the survivability of 1,150 lambs born from these sheep were determined. In addition, the growth performance characteristics, slaughter, and carcass weights of 65 lambs born from 38 randomly selected ewes 3-4 years old were determined. In the study, the pregnancy rate was 90.00%, the birth rate was 87.16%, singleness 15.00%, twins 80.00%, and triplet 5.00%, lamb yield per ewe 1.90, number of lambs per birth 2.20 was calculated. Birth and weaning (90(th) d) weights as well as 61-90(th) d of live weight gains of male and female lambs were found as 4.26 and 3.57 kg, 24.15 and 21.32 kg, 265.75 and 231.72 g, respectively. The 120(th) d survivability, slaughter and carcass weights and carcass yields of lambs were determined as 97.74%, 47.10 kg, 21.61 kg and 45.92%, respectively. As a result, although the Bafra sheep is a breed that can be recommended to be raised in terms of the characteristics discussed, more scientific research is needed on it.Öğe The effect of duration of ownership and time spent together during the day on cat owners' level of understanding of cats' body language(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2024) Koseman, Abdurrahman; Seker, Ibrahim; Erez, Abdulsamed; Kosan, SenolThe study was conducted to determine the effect of the duration of ownership of cats ( Felis catus) ) and the time spent by the owners with their cats during the day on understanding the body language of cats. Face-to-face survey data from 194 cat owners were used in the study. In the study, the ratios of females who spent 1-5 hours (h), 6-10 h and 11 h or more with their cats was 49.6, 69.4 and 62.5%, respectively; 41.9, 59.2 and 56.2%, respectively; 48.8, 55.1 and 50.0%, respectively; and 45.0, 55.1 and 43.7%, respectively, of those aged 20 years and younger. In this study, it was determined that cat owners understood 6 of the 20 images of cat body language with 55.2% or more accuracy and 14 of them with 42.8% or less accuracy. In the study, it was determined that those who understood cat body language at the highest rate were female, associate degree and bachelor's degree graduates, 21-40 years old, and those who spent 1-5 h a day with their cats. As a result, it was determined that it is not sufficient for cat owners to understand their cats' body language correctly only if they have owned their cats for a long time and spend long periods of time together during the day. This is due to the fact that there are many factors affecting the behavior of cats and individual differences. It is recommended that cat owners learn cat body language to better understand their cats.Öğe Udder morphology and physicochemical structure of milk in Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) ewes(Univ Zulia, Facultad Ciencias Veterinarias, 2024) Seker, Ibrahim; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Kul, Selim; Kocyigit, Sezgin; Seker, PinarIt was aimed to determine the effects of udder type on udder traits, milk yield and some physicochemical properties of Bafra (Chios x Karayaka) ewes. The lactation length, daily milk yield, lactation milk yield, and daily average milk yield of ewes were determined. In addition the udder type were determined, udder and teat traits were measured. The fat, solid non-fat, protein, lactose, mineral, density, freezing point, and conductivity values of the milk were determined. Type 3 udder was observed at the highest rate (37.5%) and Type 5 udders were not detected in ewes. The lactation length, daily, and lactation milk yield values were calculated as 177.75 days, 868.60 g and 156.86 kg, respectively. Udder circumference, udder width, udder depth, right teat length, left teat length, right teat diameter, left teat diameter, the distance between teats and udder floor height from the ground was calculated as 40.95 +/- 0.63, 12.36 +/- 0.30, 16.24 +/- 0.40, 2.85 +/- 0.09, 2.76 +/- 0.09, 1.49 +/- 0.03, 1.43 +/- 0.04, 15.35 +/- 0.23, and 31.88 +/- 0.70 cm, respectively. Rates of fat, protein, lactose, solid non-fat, mineral and also density, freezing point, and conductivity were calculated at 5.17 +/- 0.30, 1039.08 +/- 0.31, 6.24 +/- 0.05, 11.51 +/- 0.10, 0.88 +/- 0.009, 1039.08 +/- 0.31 g center dot mL-1, -0.80 +/- 0.009 degrees C and 5.26 +/- 0.03 mS center dot cm-1, respectively. It has been determined that Bafra sheep can be a suitable breed for breeding in the conditions of Malatya, Province of Turkiye. However, more scientific research should be done on this topic and the level of milk production should be improved.Öğe Volatile organic compounds of royal jellies obtained from honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies fed with different industrial sugars at different locations(Springer, 2025) Seker, Ibrahim; Karlidag, Semiramis; Akyol, Abuzer; Yil, Gulsah; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Uyumlu, Ayse Burcin; Yilmaztekin, MuratThe aim of this study was to reveal differences in the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of royal jellies (RJs) produced by honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies fed with 3 different industrial sugars at 2 different locations. VOCs in the RJ samples were extracted via headspace-solid phase micro-extraction and analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In total, 46 compounds, including 3 esters, 14 alcohols, 5 acids, 1 aldehyde, 14 ketones, 3 lactones, 2 terpenes and 4 other compounds, were identified in the RJ samples obtained from honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies reared in Do & gbreve;an & scedil;ehir. A total of 45 compounds, including 3 esters, 14 alcohols, 5 acids, 1 aldehyde, 14 ketones, 4 lactones, 2 terpenes and 2 other compounds, were detected in the RJ samples obtained from honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies reared in the Uluk & ouml;y location. It has been determined that different locations and different feeding conditions significantly affect the composition and amounts of volatile organic compounds in royal jelly.
