Marmara Denizi’nde 2021 yılında görülen deniz salyası içerisindeki fitoplanktonik türlerin dağılımları

Öz

1990’lı yılların başlarında Adriyatik ve Tiren Denizlerinde görülüp raporlanan deniz salyası, Marmara Denizi’nde 2020 kış aylarından itibaren yaz sonuna kadar bir çevre felaketi olarak Türkiye’nin gündemini oluşturmuştu. Konunun öneminin büyüklüğü ve güncelliği sebebiyle 2021 Ocak ayından itibaren Marmara’da deniz salyası görülen kıyısal bölgelerden Temmuz ayına kadar toplanan örnekler incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre deniz salyası içerisinde planktonik olarak 5 sınıf, bu sınıflara ait 8 tür tespit edilmiştir. Deniz salyasında bulunan, oluşumun yapışkanlığı sağlayan müsilajı salgılayan türler de oluşumun içerisinde tespit edilmiştir. Bunlar; 1 dinoflagellat, 2 prymnesiosid ve 5 diyatome türüdür. Bunlara ilave olarak 2 tür müsilaj salgısı yapan siyonabakteri görüşmüştür. Deniz salyasında 8 toksik planktonik tür müsilaj içerisinde tespit edilmiştir: PSP zehirlenmesine yol açan 1 ve DSP zehirlenmesine yol açan 3 tür dinoflagellat; denize ihtiyotoksin salan 1 tür prymnesiofisid, ASP zehirlenmesine yol açan 3 tür diyatomdur.

Distribution of phytoplanktonic species in the sea snot in 2021 in the Marmara Sea

Abstract

Sea snot, which was seen and reported in the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian Seas in the early 1990s, had been on Turkey's agenda as an environmental massive disaster from the winter months of 2021 until the end of summer in the Sea of Marmara. Due to the magnitude and topicality of the subject, the samples collected from the coastal areas where sea snot is observed in Marmara from January until July were examined. According to the results obtained, 5 classes were determined in sea snot. Species of algae that secrete mucilage, which provides stickiness to the formation, were also been identified in sea snot. These are 1 dinoflagellate, 2 Prymnesiosides, 5 diatoms, and 2 cyanobacteria species. 8 toxic planktonic species were detected in sea snot: 1 causing PSP poisoning and 3 of dinoflagellate causing DSP poisoning; 1 of prymnesiophisid that releases ichthyotoxin to the sea environment, and 3 of diatoms that cause ASP poisoning.
