Infraciliature of Eudiplodinium dilobum, E. rostratum and E. maggii

Abstract

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the infraciliature of rumen ciliates, Eudiplodinium dilobum, E. rostratum, and E. maggii by using pyridinated silver carbonate impregnation method. The specimens of E. dilobum, E. rostratum, and E. maggii were obtained from the rumen contents of water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) in Kastamonu, Turkey. As the result of the investigation, Diplodinium-type infraciliature was detected in E. dilobum, E. rostratum, and E. maggii. The buccal infraciliature of E. dilobum, E. rostratum, and E. maggii was composed of two polybrachykineties and paralabial kineties. The adoral polybrachykinety encircled most of the circumference of the vestibular opening and the vestibular polybrachykinety extended along the dorsal wall of the vestibulum from the inner edge of the adoral polybrachykinety.

Eudiplodinium dilobum, E. rostratum ve E. maggii (Ciliophora, Entodiniomorphida)’nin İnfrasiliyatürü

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, işkembe siliyatları, Eudiplodinium dilobum, E. rostratum ve E. maggii’nin infrasiliyatürü’nü piridinli gümüş karbonat tekniğiyle göstermektir. E. dilobum, E. rostratum ve E. maggii örnekleri Kastamonu’daki mandaların işkembe içeriklerinden elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucuna göre, E. dilobum, E. rostratum ve E. maggii’de Diplodinium-tip infrasiliyatür tespit edilmiştir. E. dilobum, E. rostratum ve E. maggii’de bukkal infrasiliyatür, iki polibrakikineti ve paralabiyal kineti’lerden oluşur. Adoral polibrakikineti vestibular açıklığın büyük bir kısmını çevreler ve vestibular polibrakikineti, adoral polibrakikineti’nin daha iç kenarından başlayarak vestibulum’un dorsal duvarı boyunca uzanır.
