There is a typo in the third sentence of the ‘‘Patterns of viral migration’’ subsection of the Results section. The sentence currently reads: ‘‘The ORF VI data supported spread from Greece to Turkey (BF = 230) and to Iran (BF = 128), and from Japan to USA (BF = 112).’’ The correct sentence should read: ‘‘There was also some support for spread from Turkey to Japan (BF = 14). The ORF VI data supp...

Hb J-Iran [beta77(EF1)His-Asp] is a rare hemoglobin variant, described first in Iran by Rahbar et al. in 1967 . To date, several abnormal hemoglobins have been described from different regions of Turkey . In Turkey, the first Hb J-Iran [beta77(EF1) His-Asp] case was reported by Arcasoy et al. . There are four reported cases from the Turkish population, mostly from our group. These reported case...

Avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) causes diseases like rhinotracheitis in turkeys, swollen head syndrome in chickens and avian rhinotracheitis in other birds. Causing respiratory problems, aMPV adversely affects production and inflicts immense economic losses and mortalities, especially in turkey flocks. In recent years, several serological and molecular studies have been conducted on this virus, es...

Introduction: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) serotype A is endemic in Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Turkey, while sporadic outbreaks occur in the southern Middle Eastern countries. Periodically new genetic lineages appear to spread in a westward direction from Iran into Turkey, the best known event being the spread of the A22 strain throughout the Middle East from 1964 onwards. The precise orig...

Since the first observation of hemoglobin S (Hb S) in Turkey by Aksoy, the number of hemoglobin variants reported was increased. Beta globin gene cluster haplotypes are being used to determine the origin of the mutations under interest. We studied the beta globin gene cluster haplotypes for the six different abnormal hemoglobins which are Hb S, Hb D-Los Angeles, Hb G-Coushatta, Hb E, Hb E-Saska...
