    FTIR and EDXRF Investigations of Salt Tolerant Soybean Mutants
    (Elsevier Science Bv, Po Box 211, 1000 Ae Amsterdam, Netherlands, 2013-07-23) AKYÜZ, SEVİM; AKYÜZ, ZEKİ TANIL; ATAK, ÇİMEN; ÇELİK, ÖZGE; 10127; 111424; 113987; 6653
    Molecular structure and elemental composition of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) seeds of S04-05 (Ustun-1) variety together with its salt tolerant mutants were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry. Salt tolerant soybean mutants were in vivo and in vitro selected from the M-2 generation of gamma irradiated S04-05 soybean variety. Examination of the secondary structure of proteins revealed the presence of some alterations in soybean mutants in comparison to those of the control groups. The difference IR spectra indicated that salt tolerant mutants (M-2) have less protein but more lipid contents. Chemometric treatment of the FTIR data was performed and principle component analysis (PCA) revealed clear difference between control group of seeds and mutants. EDXRF analysis showed that salt tolerant mutants considerably contained more chlorine, copper and zinc elements when compared to the control group, although most of the trace elements concentrations were not significantly altered.

    Induced of plastid mutations in soybean plant (Glycine max L. Merrill) with gamma radiation and determination with RAPD
    (2004-11-22) Alikamanoğlu, Sema; Açık, Leyla; Canpolat, Yasemin; ATAK, ÇİMEN; 6653; 176641; 1781
    The aim of our study was to induce with radiation of atrazine resistant and tolerated mutants in Coles, Amsoy-71 and 1937 soybean varieties. Atrazine that is photosynthetic inhibitor is the most important herbicide of S-triazin group, and shows toxic effect on soybean plant. For the improvement of the atrazine resistant plants with mutation breeding, the seeds belonging to the three varieties were irradiated with 200 Gy of gamma radiation dose. The irradiated seeds were sown in the field and at the end of harvesting season, every pod at node situated on the main stem was picked up separately and M2 generations were obtained. At the plants, which were obtained from M2 generation, chlorophyll mutants were determined and atrazine selection was made. The percentage of chlorophyll mutants for Amsoy-71, Coles and 1937 soybean varieties were found as 1.07, 1.48 and 1.32, respectively. At the end of atrazine selection, the percentages of atrazine resistant plants for Amsoy-71, Coles and 1937 soybean varieties were 0.80, 0.60 and 0.53, respectively. The percentages of atrazine tolerated plants were 1.07, 1.18 and 1.05, respectively as well. In our research; the differences among the mutants replying to atrazine in various concentrations were examined by using RAPD procedure as the molecular marker techniques in comparison with polymorphism. In the study done by using 14 primers; according to the amplification results, the differences between atrazine resistant plants were shown.

    Comparative transcriptional profiling of soybean orthologs of arabidopsis trichome developmental genes under salt stress
    (Springer, 233 Spring St, New York, Ny 10013 USA, 2018-02) Suludere, Zekiye; ATAK, ÇİMEN; ÇELİK, ÖZGE; 113987; 6653; 4019
    The aim of this study was to determine the ultrastructural changes and regulation of trichome-metabolism-related genes against salt stress in soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) plants. The 14-day-old Ataem-7 and S04-05 soybean seedlings were subjected to 0, 50, 100, and 150 mM NaCl stress. While the chlorophyll quantities were reduced, the activities of guaiacol peroxidase were increased in both varieties due to increasing NaCl concentrations. In S04-05 soybean variety, trichome densities were increased on both surfaces of the leaves whereas decreases were recorded in Ataem-7 variety at 150 mM NaCl treatment. Stomatal densities were increased on both surfaces of the leaves of both soybean varieties after salinity stress. We also performed a qRT-PCR analysis to evaluate the relative transcription levels of the soybean orthologs of Arabidopsis trichome developmental genes. qRT-PCR analysis demonstrated an induction of the soybean orthologs of GL2 and GL3 genes in soybean plants after 50, 100, and 150 mM NaCl treatments in both varieties. While the expression level of TTG1 ortholog gene was negatively affected in both soybean varieties under different concentrations of salinity, GL1 ortholog gene expression profile differed as a result of changing salt concentrations in both varieties with respect to control plants. It is observed that the regulation of trichome formation differs between two soybean varieties.

    Raman spectroscopic and chemometric investigation of lipid-protein ratio contents of soybean mutants
    (2020) Yılmaz, Ayberk; Kabuk, Hayrunnisa Nur; Kaygısız, Ersin; Fausto, Rui; MERİÇ, SİNAN; AYAN, ALP; ATAK, ÇİMEN; ÇELİK, ÖZGE; ILDIZ, GÜLCE ÖĞRÜÇ
    Seeds belonging to fourth generation mutants (M-4) of Ataem-7 cultivar (A7) variety and S04-05 (S) breeding line salt-tolerant soybeans were investigated by Raman spectroscopy, complemented by chemometrics methods, in order to evaluate changes induced by mutations in the relative lipid-protein contents, and to find fast, efficient strategies for discrimination of the mutants and the control groups based on their Raman spectra. It was concluded that gamma irradiation caused an increase in the lipid to protein ratio of the studied Ataem-7 variety mutants, while it led to a decrease of this ratio in the investigated S04-05 breeding line mutants. These results were found to be in agreement with data obtained by reflectance spectrum analysis of the seeds in the full ultraviolet to near-infrared spectral region and suggest the possibility of developing strategies where gamma irradiation can be used as a tool to improve mutant soybean plants targeted to different applications, either enriched in proteins or in lipids. Ward's clustering and principal component analysis showed a clear discrimination between mutants and controls and, in the case of the studied S-type species, discrimination between the different mutants. The grouping scheme is also found to be in agreement with the compositional information extracted from the analysis of the lipid-protein contents of the different samples.

    Stimulation of regeneration by magnetic field in soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) tissue cultures.
    (Haliç University, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Fındıkzade 34280, İstanbul-Turkey, 2003) Emiroğlu, Özge; Alikamanoğlu, Sema; Rzakoulieva, Aytekin; ATAK, ÇİMEN; 6653; 176641
    The determination of the effects of magnetic field on tissue cultures will be helpfull for the magnetic field treatments. In this study which was begun with this purpose, the seeds belonging to J 357 soybean variety were used. The soybean seeds were germinated in sterile conditions and cultures were initiated from the shoot tips. The explants in petri dishes were exposed to 2.9-4.6 mT magnetic fields for 2.2, 6.6, and 19.8 seconds periods. Shoot and root formation rate, fresh weights and chlorophyll quantities of regenerated shoots from control and treated explants were determined. While the shoot formation was 61.91% in control group, this rate increased in all magnetic field experiments and this rate raised up to 86.96% and 74.36% respectively in the explants which were exposed to magnetic field at 2.2 and 6.6 seconds periods. Again, while the percentage of root formation in control was 14.29%, this rate raised up to 26.08% and 35.90% respectively in these which were exposed to magnetic field at the same periods. When the fresh weights were determined, the fresh weights of seedlings regenerated from treatment explants from 6.6 seconds significantly increased in accordance with control (P<0.05). Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll quantities of shoot leaf were increased at the treatment magnetic field for 2.2 seconds
