Endemik Beyşehir kurbağası Pelophylax caralitanus (Arıkan,1988) populasyonlarında Comet Analizi ile DNA hasarın değerlendirilmesi

Öz



Bu çalışmada, DNA Comet Assay tekniği kullanılarak, farklı antropojenik kirliliğe sahip Karamık, Eber and Beyşehir Göllerinde yaşayan endemik Beyşehir kurbağası (Pelophylax caralitanus) üç populasyonunda DNA hasar düzeyleri değerlendirilmiştir. Analizler için kurbağa eritrosit hücreleri kullanıldı ve uygun biyotoplardan toplanılan 7 ergin bireyin, her birinden minimum 100 hücre ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçlar DNA comet indeksinde kontamine olmuş zonda [(Eber Gölü = Idc=0.22±0.015), (p<0.05)] artış olduğu gösterirken, temiz zonda, hücrelerin çoğunluğunun hasarsız DNA içerdiğini (Idc = 0.08 ± 0.001) göstermiştir. Elde edilen veriler, endemik Beyşehir kurbağasının ekosistemler üzerindeki antropojenik etkinin bayrak türü göstergesi olarak kullanılma olasılığını göstermektedir.
