The New Istanbul Grand Airport (IGA) Status

Mr Irfan Gündüz started his speech by stating that the Istanbul Grand Airport (IGA) is aimed to be opened in the beginning of 2018. He further stated the new airport project is conducted on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis. The airport will be managed by the company for 25 years before it is transferred to another company in 2043. He thinks that IGA will fulfill both airlines’s and ground handling company’s as well as passengers’ needs.İrfan Gündüz konuşmasına İstanbul Grand Airport (IGA)’nın 2018 yılında açılmasının amaçlandığını ve yeni havaalanı projesinin Yap-İşlet-Devret sistemiyle sürdürüleceğini belirterek başladı. Şirketleri 25 yıllık işletme sürecinden sonra 2043 yılında havaalanının işletmesini başka bir şirkete aktaracak. İrfan Gündüz projenin hem havayolu ve yer şirketlerinin, hem de yolcuların ihtiyaçlarını karşılayacağını düşünüyor

Phylogenetic Relationships Among Species of Phillipsia Inferred from Molecular and Morphological Data

The internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA have been sequenced from 29 collections of Phillipsia, mainly from the New World. The P domingensis complex, collections with a range of colors but otherwise referable to P domingensis s.l. based on spore ornamentation, were studied. Three distinctive species of Phillipsia also were included. The sequences were analysed to infer phylogenetic relationships within Phillipnsia, using parsimony. Morphological features were studied separately, and then evaluated in the context of the ITS phylogeny. Four distinct rDNA lineages, supported by ascospore ornamentation, were identified: the P. crispata the P. domingensis, the P. olivacea and the P. carnicolor lineages. SEM photographs of the ascospores are presented. Phillipsia lutea and another yellow form were nested within the P. dominagensis complex, of those with reddish hymenial colors. Color has been emphasized in taxonomy of Phillipsia, but these results suggest that individuals with strikingly different coloration may be closely related. Levels of ITS sequence divergence in the P. domingensis lineage were low. Based on these data, and morphology as studied thus far; there is no justification for recognizing segregate species within the P. domingensis complex. The Old World collections of the P. domingensis complex were nested within the New World collections, which implies that the P. domingensis lineage is geographically widespread. Phillipsia rugospora is plated in synonymy with P. olivacea and a detailed description of this taxon is given. A lectotype is designated for P. olivacea.Organismic and Evolutionary Biolog

Microstructure and mechanical properties of stable austenitic steel after thermomechanical treatment

The features of microstructure and mechanical properties of stable austenitic steel after thermomechanical treatment consist of low-temperature deformation, warm deformation and subsequent annealing have been investigated. It is shown that under these conditions in the steel direct (γ → α')- and inverse (α' → γ)-martensitic transformations are realized. As a result of the thermomechanical treatment submicrocrystalline structural states with a high density of micro- and nanotwins and localized deformation bands are formed. The yield strength of these structural states more than 3 times increases by the original value

Giardiosis and other enteropathogenic infections: a study on diarrhoeic calves in Southern Germany.

Diarrhoea induces massive problems in the rearing of calves. The aim of the study was to obtain current data about the frequency of Giardia spp., Cryptosporidium spp. and Eimeria spp. in diarrhoeic calves in Southern Germany with the particular focus on giardiosis
