  Çilek Tarlalarındaki Ortam Sıcaklığının Bal Arıları ve Yerli Tozlayıcı Arıların Aktiviteleri Üzerindeki Etkisi

  Erdogan, Ummugulsum; Erdoğan, Yaşar

  Küresel iklim değişikliğine bağlı artan sıcaklıklar, arı aktivite desenlerini ve bitkilerin tozlaşma verimliliğini önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada, ortam sıcaklığının çilek (Fragaria × ananassa) tarlalarındaki bal arıları (Apis mellifera) ve yabani polinatör arı türlerinin aktivitesi üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Gözlemler, 12-22°C arasındaki sıcaklık aralıklarında farklı arı türlerinin çiçekleri ziyaret sıklıkları kaydedilerek yapılmıştır. Bulgular, A. mellifera'nın tüm sıcaklık aralıklarında gözlendiğini ve aktivite seviyesinin sıcaklık arttıkça önemli ölçüde arttığını göstermektedir. Yerli türler arasında Lasioglossum spp. ve Halictus quadricinctus daha dar sıcaklık aralıklarında aktifken, Eristalis tenax daha yüksek sıcaklıklarda en yüksek aktivitesini göstermiştir. Genel olarak, bal arıları geniş bir termal toleransa sahipken, yerli arı türleri daha sınırlı sıcaklık aralıklarında faaliyet göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar, yerli arı topluluklarının iklim değişikliğinin ilerlemesiyle tozlaşma hizmetlerinin azalması riskiyle karşı karşıya olduğunu ve bu türlerin korunmasının tarımsal sürdürülebilirlik için önemli olduğunu göstermektedir.

  Impact of Phytobiotic Supplementation Administered in Drinking Water on Meat Quality in Heat-Stressed Broilers

  Kaya, Hacer; Kamiloğlu, Aybike

  This study evaluated the effects of a phytobiotic additive, hawthorn fruit extract (HFE), administered via drinking water on meat quality of broilers subjected to heat stress (HS). A total of 300 one-day-old broiler chicks were distributed into six experimental groups according to a 2×3 factorial design after a one-week acclimation period, with five replicates of 10 chicks each. Chicks had ad libitum access to feed and water for the duration of the 42-day trial and were exposed to a 24-hour lighting program. HS decreased the b* color value of breast meat while increasing L* and a* values and pH of thigh meat. Cooking loss (CL) of both breast and thigh meat was reduced, whereas water-holding capacity (WHC) remained unaffected. HS did not significantly alter thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), total saturated fatty acids (ΣSFA), or total unsaturated fatty acids (ΣUFA), but decreased monounsaturated fatty acids (ΣMUFA) and increased emulsion stability (ES) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (ΣPUFA). Adding HFE to the drinking water did not influence breast meat pH or color intensity, but WHC improved in breast meat with 0.2 mL/L HFE and in thigh meat at both HFE concentrations. The 0.4 mL/L HFE dose increased ΣSFA and decreased ΣUFA and ΣPUFA levels, while ΣMUFA decreased at both HFE concentrations. Overall, HFE supplementation mitigated several adverse effects of HS, notably enhancing ES and reducing redness of thigh meat. These findings suggest that HFE can be an effective phytobiotic strategy to improve meat quality in broilers under thermal stress conditions.

  Development and characterization of postbiotic-enriched biodegradable films with antifungal activity for tomato storage

  Kaya, Yasemin; İspirli, Hümeyra; Bozkurt, Fatih; Sağdıç, Osman; Şengül, Mustafa; Dertli, Enes

  BACKGROUND: One of the major contributors to postharvest losses in tomatoes is the development of infectious mold diseases. In this study, four distinct biodegradable film formulations were developed incorporating postbiotics derived from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Y48 and the polysaccharide alternan. The formulations included alternan, sodium alginate and glycerol (AAG), alternan, postbiotic, sodium alginate and glycerol (APAG), postbiotic, sodium alginate and glycerol (PAG), and sodium alginate and glycerol (AG) as a control. The films were characterized in terms of their physical, mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties. To assess antifungal efficacy, tomatoes artificially inoculated with Alternaria alternata were coated with each film and stored at ambient temperature for 8 days. RESULTS: The incorporation of alternan and postbiotics enhanced both the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the films. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) analysis confirmed the successful integration of the bioactive components into the polymer matrix. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging revealed that postbiotic addition contributed to a rougher and more rigid surface morphology, while alternan improved the structural cohesion of the films. All film formulations exhibited significant inhibitory effects against A. alternata, with the PAG formulation demonstrating the most pronounced antifungal activity. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the PAG film, enriched with postbiotics, represents a promising biocontrol strategy for mitigating fungal spoilage in tomatoes. In conclusion, this study underscores the potential of combining postbiotics and alternan for the development of active, biodegradable edible films with antifungal functionality for postharvest preservation.

  Climate-driven synchronization of honey bee flight activity and plant phenology in Türkiye: development of a Beekeeping Climate Suitability Index (BCSI)

  Erdoğan, Yaşar; Erdoğan, Ümmügülsüm

  Honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) provide essential pollination services that depend on the temporal synchronization between flight activity and plant flowering phenology, both strongly influenced by climatic conditions. However, this relationship remains insufficiently quantified at large spatial and temporal scales. In this study, we quantified climate-driven honey bee flight activity and its alignment with flowering phenology of major nectar plants in Türkiye using ERA5-Land data for the period 1981–2023. Suitable flight days were defined based on temperature (≥12°C) and precipitation (0 mm), and seasonal suitability was evaluated at a monthly scale. A composite Beekeeping Climate Suitability Index (BCSI) was developed by integrating flight activity, flowering overlap and nectar flow window. The number of suitable flight periods ranged between 4 and 7 months (mean ≈5.5), indicating substantial interannual variability. Flight flowering synchrony was low for early-spring species (23–35%) but reached 100% for summer species. BCSI values ranged from 0.44 to 1.00, capturing variability in climatic suitability for beekeeping. These findings demonstrate that climatic variability plays a decisive role in shaping bee plant interactions and provide a quantitative basis for climate-informed beekeeping management.

  Tailoring Physicochemical and Technological Properties of α-Glucans Through Mutations of GTFA from Lactobacillus Reuteri E81

  Gökcan, Hande; İspirli, Hümeyra; Dertli, Enes

  Glucansucrases catalyze the production of α-glucans using sucrose as substrate with distinct physicochemical characteristics originates from mainly the type of linkages, degree of branching and molecular mass. New forms of α-glucans can be produced by applying specific mutations to glucansucrases. In this study, a single and double mutation at Leu933 and Leu935 sites of glucansucrase E81 was applied and L933I and L933I-L935F sites modified glucansucrase was obtained. Structural characterisation of bioengineered α-glucans revealed that ratio of (1 → 3):(1 → 6) linked α-Glc units altered at L933I whereas no (1 → 3)-linked α-Glc units were presented for L933I-L935F modified glucansucrase detected by NMR analysis. Both bioengineered α-glucans had lower molecular weights in comparison to glucan E81 detected by GPC analysis. TGA and DSC analysis were applied to detect the thermal profiles of bioengineered α-glucans whereas FTIR and XRD analysis were applied to determine the alterations in the structural and physical nature of the bioengineered α-glucans, respectively. Finally, SEM and AFM analysis were applied to explore the morphological modifications of the bioengineered α-glucans. This study provides a better understanding for the potential role of final glucan structures on their physicochemical characteristics. Keywords: glucansucrase; carbohydrate engineering; mutation.

  Bioactive profile and mineral composition of fruit extracts from four wild hawthorn (Crataegus spp.) species

  Çakır, Özlem; Çınar Topçu, Kübra; Sefali, Abdurrahman; Bayyiğit, İshak; İlhan, Gülçe; Singh, Jyoti

  This study compared the antioxidant capacity, total phenolic content (TPC), phenolic composition, lipid oxidation level, and mineral profiles of extracts obtained from four wild hawthorn species (Crataegus tanacetifolia, C. orientalis subsp. orientalis, C. orientalis subsp. szovitsii, and C. monogyna) collected from northeastern Türkiye. Significant interspecific variations were observed in DPPH, FRAP, and CUPRAC assays. While C. monogyna had the highest reducing capacity and TPC, C. orientalis subsp. szovitsii had the highest DPPH activity. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry analysis showed that catechin, epicatechin, chlorogenic acid, and quinic acid were the major phenolics, and were particularly abundant in C. monogyna. Despite having a high phenolic content, C. monogyna had the highest malondialdehyde level, indicating that phenolics alone were insufficient to fully inhibit lipid oxidation. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry mineral analysis detected high levels of K, Mg, and P in all species. Principal component analysis effectively distinguished the species based on their antioxidant, phenolic, and mineral profiles. Overall, hawthorn fruits were confirmed as valuable sources of natural antioxidants and essential minerals.

  Effects of phenolic-standardized Crataegus orientalis flower extract on honey bee colony development and seasonal honey yield; [Efectos del extracto floral de Crataegus orientalis estandarizado en compuestos fenólicos sobre el desarrollo de colonias de abejas melíferas y el rendimiento estacional de miel]

  Erdoğan, Yaşar; Erdoğan, Ümmügülsüm

  Aim of study: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a phenolic-standardized flower extract from Crataegus orientalis Pall. on honey bee colony development and end-of-season honey yield under field conditions, and to assess its lasting colony-level effects. Area of study: The study was conducted during the 2025 beekeeping season at the apiary of Bayburt University Beekeeping Application and Research Center, located in northeastern Türkiye. Material and methods: Twenty-four initially balanced honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 6): a control group receiving 1:1 sucrose:water syrup and three treatment groups receiving 50, 100, or 200 mg GAE L⁻¹ of phenolic-standardized Crataegus orientalis flower extract. Colonies were fed daily for 21 days in early spring and monitored at seven time points (T0–T6) from mid-May to late August. Colony development was assessed using brood area (cm²) and number of frames with bees, while hive-front dead bees were recorded as a safety indicator. Net honey yield was determined at the end of the season. Main results: Daily syrup consumption did not differ among groups (P > 0.05), whereas daily phenolic intake increased in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). Brood area increased significantly with dose and was generally higher in the high-dose group than in the control group throughout the season (P < 0.001). No significant differences were observed among groups for seasonal averages of frames with bees or mortality index; however, a significant treatment × time interaction was detected for frames with bees. Net honey yield was significantly higher in the high-dose group compared to the control group (P < 0.01). Research highlights: Short-term early spring supplementation with phenolic-standardized Crataegus orientalis flower extract supported brood development without increasing adult bee mortality. This early developmental advantage resulted in a measurable improvement in end-of-season honey yield under field conditions.

  Characterization of Highly Branched Dextran VB113 Produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides VB113 as Traditional Pickle Isolate

  İspirli, Hümeyra; Kavak, Akif Emre; Dertli, Enes

  Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) from traditional fermented foods serve as a promising source of novel exopolysaccharides (EPSs) with desirable techno-functional properties. In this study, the EPS production ability of LAB strains from traditional pickles was tested and a strong slimy isolate grown in a sucrose-rich environment was further selected. The isolate was identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides VB113 and its EPS production characteristics were determined. HPLC analysis revealed that glucose was the only monomer in the EPS repeating structure, whereas 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy analysis demonstrated a branched dextran structure with 20% (1 → 3)-linked α-D-glucose units. Dextran VB113 showed a molecular weight of 2.4 × 106 Da tested by GPC analysis. The functional groups within dextran VB113 were determined by FTIR analysis, and XRD analysis demonstrated its amorphous physical status. TGA and DSC analysis were applied for thermal characterization and a degradation temperature of 272.25 °C was observed for dextran VB113, suggesting its high thermal resistance. The micro-structural features of dextran VB113 were tested by SEM and AFM analysis that revealed spherical and fibrillary properties, respectively. These findings revealed the importance of testing different niches to obtain novel EPS-producing LAB strains that can be further evaluated to enhance the techno-functional properties of food systems. The branched nature of dextran VB113, together with its molecular weight and thermal characteristics, offers practical advantages for its potential usage as a thermal-stable thickening agent, emulsion stabilizer, and fat replacer in high-temperature food processing applications, such as bakery products, processed dairy, and plant-based meat analogs.

  Microwave-assisted extraction of pectin from persimmon: physicochemical properties, structural characterization and greenness assessment

  Yılmaz, Özlem; Kutlu, Naciye; Kamiloğlu, Aybike; Elbir Abca, Tuğba

  In this study, the microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of pectin from persimmon was optimized using a Box-Behnken experimental design, with pH, extraction time, and liquid-to-solid ratio as independent variables. The optimization results obtained through response surface methodology indicated optimum conditions of pH 1.78, extraction time of 8 min, and a liquid-to-solid ratio of 125 mL/g, corresponding to a predicted pectin yield of 4.28%. In the validation experiment, the actual pectin yield was determined to be 3.79 ± 0.04%, confirming a good agreement with the model predictions. The degree of esterification, methoxyl content, galacturonic acid and ash contents, water- and oil-holding capacities, antioxidant activity, rheological behavior, and structural properties (FT-IR, DSC, and 1H NMR) of the samples obtained under optimal MAE and conventional extraction conditions were compared. Based on the degree of esterification, both samples were classified as high-methoxyl, with galacturonic acid contents of 41% and 42% for the MAE and conventionally extracted samples, respectively; both values were below the ≥ 65% level specified for commercial food-grade pectin. The ash content was higher in the MAE sample (7.22%) than in the conventionally extracted sample (1.56%). MAE resulted in a pectin-rich complex with a relatively low galacturonic acid content and higher antioxidant activity than the conventionally extracted sample. Furthermore, the MAE sample exhibited higher water-holding capacity but lower oil-binding capacity than the conventionally extracted sample. Rheological analysis showed that the MAE sample exhibited higher apparent viscosity and shear stress than the conventionally extracted sample. FT-IR analysis revealed more pronounced absorption bands in the MAE sample, suggesting structural differences. DSC analysis revealed differences in the thermal behavior of the MAE and conventionally extracted samples. Additionally, 1H NMR analysis supported the presence of characteristic pectic structural features in both samples. The greenness assessment of the method was assessed using the Greenness Evaluation Metric for Analytical Methods (GEMAM), which yielded an overall score of 7.482, indicating a high level of environmental acceptability. Overall, MAE can be considered an efficient and sustainable approach for obtaining a pectin-rich complex with antioxidant activity from persimmon.
