dc.description.abstract | This study analysed some quantitative and qualitative hair characteristics in 35 brown hare, Lepus europaeus, from three different geographic/climatic regions in Turkey to find phenotypic variations and characteristics of hairs of this species, which has commercial fur. Analyzed quantitaive traits included fiber diameter (FD), fiber lengths of hauter (H) and barbe (B), fiber tenacity (T), and elongation (EL). The effects of geography and sex on the mentioned traits were assessed via the Least squares method. It was determined that the traits of FD, H, B, T, and EL were not significantly affected by geographic area or sex. The interaction between geography and sex was found to be insignificant for all traits. Significant phenotypic correlations were found between T and EL (-0.52, P = 0.0048). The structure of the hair scale type was found "mosaic" at the proximal of the shaft, "elongate petal" at the distal of the shaft, "streaked" at the proximal of the shield, and "regular wave" at the distal of the shield. Quantitative hair. characteristics and hair scale patterns of the brown hares were determined to be conservative, in spite of the variations in fur colours. | en_US |
