The Mechanism of Lung Ventilation in the Tortoise Testudo Graeca Linne

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1967
ABSTRACT An account is given of the gross structure of the respiratory system and of the principal muscles involved in ventilation of the tortoise, Testudo graeca. The mechanism of ventilation was investigated by electrophysiological methods.

Alanine influx across serosal border of Testudo graeca intestine

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1980
The influx of alanine across the serosal membrane of Testudo graeca intestinal cells with preserved epithelial orientation was examined. Our results suggest that: 1. The mechanism of alanine influx across the serosal membrane of turtle intesintal cells is a carrier-mediated process that has the characteristics of facilitated diffusion. 2.

Chloride transport across the isolated intestinal mucosa of Testudo graeca

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970
Abstract 1. 1. The mucosa-serosa and serosa-mucosa chloride transports measured in short-circuited adjacent tracts of Greek tortoise jejunal epithelium show a marked inhibition in the presence of DNP 10 −4 M. 2. 2. Both fluxes are significantly increased by the addition of glucose 5·5 × 10 −3 M if the epithelium is previously incubated in a

RAPD variation in Mediterranean turtle Testudo graeca L. (Testudinidae)

Russian Journal of Genetics, 2004
The polymerase chain reaction with arbitrary primers (RAPD-PCR) was used to study intraspecific variation in Mediterranean turtle Testudo graeca, which is represented by the Dagestan (T. g. pallasi) and Nikolskii (T. g. nikolskii) subspecies in Russia. To study the phylogenetic relationships, the RAPD variation was also compared in two other T.

A microscopic study of the lung of Testudo graeca (Chelonia).

Journal of anatomy, 1990
The lung of the tortoise, Testudo graeca (Chelonia) was studied by means of light and electron microscopy, histochemistry and immunocytochemistry. The lung showed the typical faviform structure of the reptilian lung. Three orders of trabeculae were observed.

On Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758 specimens of Mardin Province [Mardin ili Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758 Örnekleri Hakkinda]

2003
Twenty-four (16>, 8+) specimens of the Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoise Testudo graeca were examined from Mardin, southeastern Turkey. For morphological comparisons, 15 morphometric characters and 31 ratios developed by combinations of straight carapace length (SCL) and straight carapace width (SCW) were investigated.

Differences in shell morphology of Testudo graeca and Testudo hermanni, based on material from Bulgaria

Amphibia-Reptilia, 2000
Abstract Two tortoises, Testudo graeca ibera Pallas, 1814 and Testudo hermanni boettgeri (Mojsisovics, 1889), inhabit Bulgaria. Certain features normally used for their identification, such as division of the supracaudal scute (divided in T. h. boettgeri; undivided in T. g. ibera), are not absolute.
