    Beekeeping Activities II: The Evaluaton of Beekeeping Activities in terms of Beekeeper Preferences, Production Quality and Bee Diseases in Malatya Province
    (Univ Namik Kemal, 2017) Seker, Ibrahim; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Karlidag, Semiramis; Aygen, Selami
    This research was conducted to determine the conditions of beekeeping in Malatya in caring, feeding, breeding and production activities. Face to face interviews with 149 beekeepers were applied by using the random sampling method in selected registered beekeepers to Beekeeping Registration System (BRS). In this study, it is found that 83.7 % of beekeepers use Standard Langstroth Hives, 15.4 % produce bee productions except honey, 57.0 % renovate queen bee once in two years and 83.9 % buy queen bee but not breed it. In this study, it is determined that breeders use 80.5 % Caucasian crossbred bee, and 79.2 % breeders do not use simple selection. In the current study, it is calculated that the ratio of 97.3 % sucrose is used for syrup making, the most common bee disease is varroosis (47.8 %), 69.1 % beekeeping do not have records, 90.5 % of keepers are strollers and 35.2 % do not consider themselves having sufficient beekeeping knowledge and practice. To have a better beekeeping in Malatya, it is necessary to use efficient and local adapted races, give importance to breeding queen bees, keep business records, encourage the production of bee products except honey, fight for the diseases densely and conduct courses, trainings and information activities for beekeepers extensively.

    A comparative melissopalynological study of royal jelly from Turkey
    (Taylor & Francis As, 2022) Yil, Gulsah; Karlidag, Semiramis; Akyol, Abuzer; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Yilmaztekin, Murat; Erdogan, Selim; Seker, Ibrahim
    Three treatments (Glucose, Sucrose, Bee Feed Syrup) were used to examine the influence of supplementary feeding on the pollen spectrum of the royal jelly produced by Apis mellifera L. colonies. Apis mellifera colonies were located in the Battalgazi and Dogansehir districts of Malatya province in Turkey. In total 255 royal jelly samples were investigated and the analysis recorded over 30 taxa. In both sites the control group heavily utilised Quercus, Verbascum, Astragalus, and Lamiaceae. The feeding treatments saw Quercus, Verbascum, and Astragalus still being used but in different proportions. The utilisation of Lamiaceae was much reduced and Echium became an important component in colonies that had supplementary feeding.

    EFFECTS OF COATING WITH CHITOSAN FILM AND STORING AT DIFFERENT PERIODS OF BROOD BROILER EGGS ON HATCHING PERFORMANCE
    (Pakistan Agricultural Scientists Forum, 2020) Koseman, Abdurrahman; Akdemir, Fatih; Seker, Ibrahim
    The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of coating with chitosan film and storing at different times (from 7 days to 21 days) of Ross 308 brood broiler eggs on weight loss of the eggs and hatching performance. In this study, the experimental treatments consisted of three different storage periods (7, 14 and 21 days) and eggs of each of these groups were further divided in two sub groups as coating with chitosan film (group A, C and E) or not (group B, D and F). In total, six treatment groups were formed for the study. Total number of eggs used in the study was 1800. In all groups with chitosan coated, high early embryonic mortality (over 90%) and low mid and late embryonic mortality were observed (2.41%-6.89%) (p<0.05). The lowest hatchability was observed in groups A, C and E, which coated with chitosan film (0.67%, 3.00% and 0.33%, respectively). It was further observed that coating the fertilised broiler breeder eggs with chitosan film for different storage periods significantly decreased weight losses in the eggs, both during storage and incubation. However, the expected positive effects on hatchability of incubated eggs were not actually observed. Conversely, the coating of eggs with chitosan film adversely affected the embryonic mortality and the hatching performance.

    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 Iflazoglu
    BackgroundIn 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. image

    The Management Practices and Microbiological Quality of a Dairy Farm with Low Bulk Tank Milk Somatic Cell Count
    (Univ Agriculture, Fac Veterinary Science, 2017) Risvanli, Ali; Seker, Ibrahim; Saat, Nevzat; Karagulle, Burcu; Koseman, Abdurrahman; Kaygusuzoglu, Erdal
    In this study, we present the management practices and microbiological quality of a dairy farm with low bulk tank milk somatic cell count (BTMSCC). In the mentioned farm, BTMSCC was generally <150,000 cells/mL. BTMSCC per day and bulk tank milk (BTM) microbiological analysis per week were carried out during one year. Weekly animal and udder health controls and management evaluations were performed; the somatic cell counts (SCCs) of the milk samples collected in only 21 weeks of the year were over 150,000 cells/mL but this value was never over 320,000 cells/mL in the herd. When the management practices of the weeks with high BTMSCC were evaluated, negative conditions including changes of paddocks of the animals and estrus synchronization were detected. In the samples taken from the milk collection tank for a total of 22 weeks, microbiological isolation occurred; the most common bacterium was Escherichia coli. Udder hygiene, barn hygiene, the cleanliness of the beddings, the care of the employees toward their work and personal hygiene, and disinfection of the milking machines and their maintenance were all very good for the whole year. During the weekly routine controls, clinical mastitis and teat stenosis were detected twice and once, respectively; however, in those 3 weeks, BTMSCC increased in only the week that the teat stenosis was observed. We observed that, even in farms with intense precautions, BTMSCC may increase and microbiological growth may occur in BTM. To ensure that these situations do not become permanent, these precautions should be applied continuously. (C) 2017 PVJ. All rights reserved

    Optimization of the Estrus Synchronization Method and its Effect on Bulk Tank Milk Somatic Cell Count in Dairy Cattle Farming
    (Friends Science Publ, 2017) Saat, Nevzat; Risvanli, Ali; Seker, Ibrahim; Kaygusuzoglu, Erdal; Koseman, Abdurrahman
    Effect of various estrus synchronization methods on bulk tank milk somatic cell count (BTMSCC) was investigated. One-hundred Simmental cows within a single dairy farm were randomized into four equal groups: no treatment (Group 1, control group); application of a progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (Group 2); administration of double-dose prostaglandin F-2 alpha (PGF(2)-alpha) with an 11-day interval (Group 3); and subjected to the Ovsynch protocol (Group 4). Bulk tank milk (BTM) samples were collected daily for one month and BTMSCCs calculated. Progesterone and estradiol concentrations were also measured at 3-day intervals. BTMSCC of the Ovsynch protocol group was not significantly different from that of the control group, suggestive of good udder health. Based on this finding, we propose that spontaneous estrus and the Ovsynch protocol are preferable methods for estrus synchronization than progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID) and PGF(2)-alpha approaches.
