Nearly 70% of the world's mountain ungulate taxa are endangered. The availability of a standard set of DNA markers for forensic and molecular ecology studies would help to establish conservation programs and detect poaching activities of these endangered taxa. We tested 60 published microsatellite primer pairs from bovids (cattle, sheep and goat) on 49 individuals from 11 taxa including six wild goat-like species (Capra spp.), three divergent wild sheep (Ovis spp.), and two chamois (Rupicapra spp.) species. Approximately 30 microsatellites amplified a microsatellite-like PCR product in all three genera, and with the exception of ILST097, nearly all the loci were polymorphic within most of the 11 species.

Population Genomics Reveal Recent Speciation and Rapid Evolutionary Adaptation in Polar Bears Liu, Shiping; et. al. (Elsevier BV, 2014-05-08) Polar bears are uniquely adapted to life in the High Arctic and have undergone drastic physiological changes in response to Arctic climates and a hyper-lipid diet of primarily marine mammal prey. We analyzed 89 complete genomes of polar bear and brown bear using population genomic modeling and show that the species diverged only 479-343 thousand years BP. We find that genes on the polar bear lineage have been under stronger positive selection than in brown bears; nine of the top 16 genes under strong positi...
Identification of demographic structure and population viability analysis of Gazella subgutturosa in Şanliurfa Çobanoğlu, Aziz Emre; Kence, Meral; Department of Biology (2010) Goitered gazelle (Gazella subgutturosa) is an Asian antelope species and it is classified as Vulnerable by IUCN. They have an economic, esthetic and cultural value; therefore, they had been hunted and domesticated for a long time. Additional human disturbance over years nearly led goitered gazelle populations in Turkey to extinction. Today in Turkey, only natural population of goitered gazelle lives in Şanlurfa. In this theses, demographic structure and population parameters of natural population goitered g...
The phylogenetic analysis of pinus nigra arnold subspecies pallasiana varieties with respect to non-coding trn regions of chloroplast genome Güvendiren Gülsoy, Aysun Demet; Kaya, Zeki; Department of Biology (2009) More than half of the Pinaceae is including in genus Pinus covers the large parts of vegetation of northern hemisphere. The Anatolian Black Pine is one of the subspecies of European Black Pine, growing naturally as a widespread mid elevation species of Taurus, western Anatolian and northern Anatolian Mountains of Turkey. Although it is disputed that there are 5 varieties of Anatolian black pine but three of these are well recognized. These are Pinus nigra subsp. pallasiana var. pallasiana, Pinus nigra Arnol...
Characterization of taxonomically related some Turkish oak (quercus l.) species in an isolated stand : a morphometric analysis approach Aktaş, Caner; Kaya, Zeki; Department of Biology (2010) The genus Quercus L. is represented with more than 400 species in the world and 18 of these species are found naturally in Turkey. Although its taxonomical, phytogeographical and dendrological importance, the genus Quercus is still taxonomically one of the most problematical woody genus in Turkish flora. In this study, multivariate morphometric approach was used to analyze oak specimens collected from an isolated forest (Beynam Forest, Ankara) where Quercus pubescens Willd., Q. infectoria Olivier subsp. boi...
Ada martısı (larus audouinii) Doğu Akdeniz popülasyonlarının yakın dönemli değişikliklerinin genetik yöntemler kullanılarak anlaşılması Yapan, Batuhan Çağrı; Perktaş, Utku; Karahan, Arzu; Oro, Daniel; Özkan, Korhan (2016-06-03) "Besin zincirinin üst basamaklarında bulunan deniz kuşlarının varlığı ve yayılışı, kıyı ekosistemlerinin sağlığının ve insan faaliyetlerinin deniz ekosistemi üzerindeki etkilerinin izlenmesinde büyük öneme sahiptir. Geçtiğimiz yüzyılda birçok deniz kuşu türü insan faaliyetlerinin doğrudan veya dolaylı etkileriyle üreme alanlarını kaybetmiş ve tükenme tehlikesiyle karşı karşıya kalmıştır. 1960larda birey sayısı 600 çifte kadar gerileyen Ada Martısı (Larus audouinii) da bu türlerden biridir. Her ne kadar günü...
