The graphic evaluation of morphological characters in honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) by chernoff faces
iki farklı Anadolu arısı (Apis mellifera anatoliaca) ekotipinden 7'şer ebeveyn koloni ve bunların dölleri olan 5'er koloni (toplam 24 koloni) morfolojik analiz için rasgele örneklenmişlerdir. Morfometrik ölçümler 10 morfolojik özellik üzerinde yapılmıştır. Ebeveynlerin ve döllerin morfolojik özelliklerine ilişkin velilerine çok değişkenli grafik yöntemi (Chernoff yüzleri) uygulanmıştır. Bu çok değişkenli grafik tekniği "Chernöff yüzleri" basit ve çabuk görsel karşılaştırmalar sağlayarak ekotipler arasındaki ve ebeveynler ile döller arasındaki farklılıkları ortaya koymuştur.
Bal arısı (Apis mellifera L.) Morfolojik özelliklerinin chernoff yüzleri ile grafiksel değerlendirilmesi
Seven parent colonies and 5 offspring colonies of two different Anatolian honey bee (Apis mellifera anatoliaca) ecotypes (total 24 colonies) were sampled randomly for morphological analysis. Morphometric measurements were made on 10 characters. A multivariate graphic method (Chernoff faces) was applied to data of parents and offsprings in representing morphometric data. This multivariate graphic technique, "Chernoff faces", could distinguish differences between ecotypes and between parents and offsprings enabling simple and quick visual comparisons.
