Non – Silica Algae of Seydisuyu Stream basin and their relative abundances Eskişehir/Turkey

Abstract

In the present study; non – silica algae of Seydisuyu Stream Basin were investigated and Cluster Analysis CA was applied to detected biological data in order to classify the stations in terms of algae floras. For this purpose, epipelic EPP , epilithic EPL , epifitic EPF and planktonic algae samples were collected seasonally from 12 stations in 2012 along the Seydisuyu Stream Basin. According to results of identified non – silica algae, a total of 17 Chlorophyta species, 12 Cyanobacteria species, 4 Euglenophyta species, 2 Dinoflagellata species and 1 Chrysophyta species were identified from benthic and planktonic samples of investigated freshwater ecosystem. According to results of CA, 5 statistically significant clusters were formed and different ecological zones of the Seydisuyu Stream Basin were presented according to the abundance of algae

Seydisuyu nehri havzası Eskişehir/Türkiye Silissiz Algleri ve bağıl bolluk seviyeleri

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Seydisuyu Nehri Havzası'nın silis ihtiva etmeyen algleri araştırılmış ve algal floraları açısından incelenen istasyonların sınıflandırılması için elde edilen biyolojik verilere Kümeleme Analizi uygulanmıştır. Bu amaç için, 2012 yılında, mevsimsel olarak, Seydisuyu Nehri Havzası'ndan epipelik EPP , epilitik EPL , epifitik EPF ve planktonik alg örnekleri toplanmıştır. Çalışmamız sonucunda, incelenen sucul ekosistemin bentik ve planktonik örneklerinden, 17 Chlorophyta türü, 12 Cyanobacteria türü, 4 Euglenophyta türü, 2 Dinoflagellat türü ve 1 Chrysophyta türü tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen Kümeleme Analizi sonuçlarına göre, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı 5 küme tespit edilmiş ve Seydisuyu Nehri Havzası'nda alg bolluğuna göre farklı ekolojik bölgeler ortaya konulmuştur
