Investigation of climate-quality relationship in bread wheat (T. aestivum L.) by novel statistical approach (ESOGÜ quality index).

In this study, precipitation; temperature (maximum, minimum, and average temperature) values of Eskişehir, Konya, Afyonkarahisar, Uşak, and Kütahya for years (2007-2018); and protein content, macro sedimentation (MSDS), thousand kernel weight (KW), test weight (TW) relations, and the effect of climate values on quality were investigated. The Kriging method was used by ArcGIS software for creating quality maps of Eskişehir, Konya, Afyonkarahisar, Uşak, and Kütahya provinces in the light of obtained data from these examined quality criteria, yield, and climate factors. The quality of bread wheat, which includes protein content, macro sedimentation, thousand kernel weight, and test weight, is highly affected by the subject precipitation, maximum temperature, minimum temperature, average temperature, and precipitation.

New antidepressant drug candidate: Hypericum montbretti extract.

This study was designed to investigate possible antidepressant-like effects of the extract prepared from the flowers of Hypericum montbretti Spach. (Guttiferae, Clusiaceae). Phytochemical constituents of the methanolic extract were analysed by HPLC method.

Skin prick test reactivity in allergic rhinitis patients to airborne pollens.

The aim was to investigate the impact of atmospheric pollen in determining allergic rhinitis. It was conducted with 130 patients with allergic rhinitis in three different sites in Eskisehir, Turkey, in 2000-2001, using a gravimetric method with a Durham sampler. Skin prick test results, the symptoms of patients and their findings all confirmed the presence of allergic reactions to pollen allergens in the patients observed.

Monitoring and assessment of airborne Cladosporium Link and Alternaria Nées spores in Sivrihisar (Eskisehir), Turkey.

The spores of Cladosporium spp. and Alternaria spp., commonly described as the most allergenic spores, were collected by means of Durham gravimetric sampler from the Sivrihisar (Eskisehir) atmosphere throughout 2005 to 2006.

Airborne Alternaria and Cladosporium species and relationship with meteorological conditions in Eskisehir City, Turkey.

Alternaria and Cladosporium, known as the most allergenic spores were first collected by means of Durham gravimetric sampler from Eskisehir atmosphere from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2001. The daily, monthly and annual variations in spores/cm(2) of Cladosporium and Alternaria were recorded. During this period, a total of 10.

Concentrations of airborne pollen grains in Sivrihisar (Eskisehir), Turkey.

Pollen grains in the atmosphere of Sivrihisar were studied for a continuous period of 2 years (1 January 2005-31 December 2006) using a Durham sampler. During this period, pollen grains belonging to 41 taxa were recorded, 24 of which belonged to arboreal plants and 17 to non-arboreal. From these, 23,219 were identified in 2005 and 34,154 in 2006.
