Öğe EPIPHYTIC DIATOMS IN ENVIRONMENTAL BIOINDICATION: A CASE STUDY OF A SIGNIFICANT NATURAL LAKE IN THE NORTHWEST OF TURKEY(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rolniczego Hugona Kollataja Krakowie, 2023) Tokatli, Cem; Solak, Cuneyd Nadir; Islam, Abu Reza Md. Towfiqul; Titiz, Ahmet Mirac; Yilmaz, Elif; Atici, TahirAim of the study The Gala Lake, which has a status of National Park and is a protected area, is the one of the most important natural stagnant water bodies in the Marmara Region of Turkiye. However, it is under effect of a significant agricultural stress, mainly resulting from paddy cultivation of rice. In this research, epiphytic diatoms of Gala Lake were investigated, and trophic status of the lake was assessed by applying the Biological Diatom Index (BDI). Material and methods Epiphytic diatom samples were collected from the submerged macrophytes from 5 selected locations on the lake (G1-G5) with varying ecological character, and observed to be exposed to different pollution pressures. Results and conclusions As a result of collecting taxonomic data, 37 diatom species were recorded by identifying a total of 2095 valves, and Cyclotella meneghiniana, Bacillaria paxillifera, and Navicula recens were found as the most dominant species for the Gala Lake. According to the results of bioindication data, Gala Lake was found to be in a eutrophic state-having poor water quality in terms of applied BDI.
