Introduction
I am a researcher specializing in soil microbiology, microbial ecology, and the role of protists in soil ecosystems. My work primarily focuses on trophic interactions within soil food webs, examining how predatory protists regulate bacterial communities. I am particularly interested in understanding the dynamics between protists, bacteria, and soil nutrients.

The plant-microbe interactions, which is crucial for plant health and productivity, mainly occur in rhizosphere: a narrow zone of soil surrounding roots of living plants. The rhizosphere hosts one of the most intense habitats for microbial prey–predator interactions, especially between predatory protists and bacteria. Here, based on two key facts,...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of olive pomace biochar (OB) application on the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of Vertisols. For this study, soil samples classified as Vertisol in Çanakkale, where internal drainage and surface ponding are major problems, were used. The OB was produced at 450°C and then mixed with 0...
Background
Biological control (biocontrol) organisms are the key component of the sustainable agriculture. Although the majority of the research on biocontrol organisms focused on fungi and bacteria, recent studies revealed the importance of predatory protists in pathogen suppression through direct (by feeding on plant pathogens) and indirect (by e...
To overcome the global problem of food shortage while supporting sustainable life on Earth, we must appreciate the critical importance of soil microorganisms—the key drivers of essential ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling and plant productivity. Protists are one of the major microbial groups in soil ecosystem including primary producers, d...
Nitrogen fertilizers’ effects on protists in three paddy field soils were analyzed.
Different nitrogen fertilizers had distinctive effects on the protist communities.
The effect of nitrogen fertilizers on protist communities slightly depended on the soil types.
Predatory protists were the main groups that were affected by nitrogen fertilizers.
Prot...
The aim of this study was to obtain much faster compost under controlled temperature and aeration conditions. Experiment was conducted at Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University. The composting system included four 100 L volume reactors. Three thermocouple wires were placed at the top, center and bottom of each reactor to measure the temperature of the c...
