There are 26 recognized subspecies of honeybees throughout the world and 5 of them are distributed in Turkey. Due to the migratory beekeepers and queen trade practices in addition to other anthropogenic factors, population structure of these 5 subspecies are under threat and require further research followed by immediate establishment of conservation strategies. In this study, we aimed to determine the phylogeography and biodiversity of Turkish Honeybees. In order to assess genetic variability and population structure of Turkish Honeybees, we have identified 500 localities considering geographic and climatic factors, and sampled from over 350 stationary beehives throughout the Anatolia. We have isolated DNA from one individual worker bee from each locality. In order to obtain genetic structure, we depended on 3 mitochondrial DNA markers: (i) Cytochrome oxidase B (CytB), (ii) NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2), (iii) partial sequences and the intergenic spacer between the Cytochrome oxidase I and II (COXI-COXII). We have completed PCR for every sample and each locus. The next step of the project will consist of sequencing, bioinformatic analysis of these sequences and further assessment of the population structure observed with regard to geographic and climatic restraints in Anatolia.

Phylogeography and Population Genetics of Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) From Turkey Based on COI-COII Sequence Data
Solorzano, Cesar D.; Szalanski, Allen L.; Kence, Meral; McKern, Jackie A.; Austin, James W.; Kence, Aykut (2009-01-01)
A study that involved DNA sequencing of COI-COII intergenic region of the mitochondrial DNA genome of Apis mellifera honey bees from Turkey was conducted to determine the population genetics and phylogeographic structure of this species from seven distinct areas of Turkey. From the 132 honey bees subjected to DNA sequencing, a total of 12 mitotypes of A. mellifera "C" lineage were observed, of which only one mitotype, C 13, had been reported previously. The most common mitotype, C12, accounted for 47% of th...
Phylogeography of Calanus helgolandicus and the Black Sea copepod Calanus euxinus, with notes on Pseudocalanus elongatus (Copepoda, Calanoida)
Unal, Ebru; Frost, Bruce W.; Armbrust, Virginia; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan (2006-01-01)
Calanus helgolandicus is a widespread epipelagic copepod species whose geographical range extends from the temperate Atlantic Ocean to the northern Mediterranean Sea. Calanus euxinus, recently designated as a distinct species though closely related to C. helgolandicus, occurs in the Black Sea. Very subtle morphological differences distinguish the two species. Pseudocalanus elongatus has a similar geographic range including North Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea. In this study, population ...
Haplotype frequency analysis of Turkish Salix L. (Salicaceae),
Kaya, Zeki (null; 2018-01-13)
The genus Salix L. is represented by more than 500 species in the world where 27 species are naturally found in Turkey. This genus has been commonly used as biomass production for energy, phytoremediation and pharmacological products. The objective of this study is to estimate the haplotype frequency analysis of native willow species in Turkey. The sequence data are obtained from non-coding (trnL) and coding (matK and rbcL) cpDNA gene regions of Salix species (24 species and one hybrid). Results showed that...
Morphology, anatomy, palynology and nutlet micromorphology of the rediscovered Turkish endemic Salvia ballsiana (Lamiaceae) and their taxonomic implications
Kahraman, Ahmet; Doğan, Musa; Celep, Ferhat; AKAYDIN, GALİP; KOYUNCU, MEHMET (Wiley, 2010-01-01)
Salvia ballsiana (Rech. fil.) Hedge, previously known only from the type gathering, is a local endemic species from Turkey. The species was first collected from Golbasi (Malatya) by E. K. Balls in 1935, and was not collected again until 2008, when we found it in Gerger (Adiyaman). The diagnostic morphological characters of this rare endemic species are discussed, including its anatomical, palynological and nutlet micromorphological features. Morphological characteristics of leaves, calyces, corollas and typ...
Genetic Diversity Pattern of Salix alba Populations in a Fragmented River Ecosystem in Eastern Mediterranean
Özdemir Değirmenci, Funda; Acar, Pelin; Kaya, Zeki (null; 2016-01-13)
The genus Salix L. is represented with more than 500 species in the world and 28 of species are found naturally in Turkey. The species of the genus have been widely used for bioenergy and phytoremediation. Salix alba like many other willow species is with great renewable energy potentiali and important component of an healthy riparian ecosystem as an indicator species in major river ecosystems in Turkey. With this study, it was aimed to provide information for efficient conservation, management and util...
