Türkiye’de Yetiştirilen Bazı Yerli Koyun Irklarında Kalpastatin (CAST) Geni Polimorfizminin PCR-RFLP Yöntemiyle Belirlenmesi

Abstract

ÖZETBu çalışmada, Türkiye'de yetiştirilen 7 yerli koyun ırkında kalpastatin (CAST) gen polimorfizmi PCR-RFLP metodu kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. CAST geninin M ve N allelleri frekansları; Kangal (n= 31), İvesi (n= 26), Güney Karaman ABSTRACTIn this study, calpastatin (CAST) gene polimorphism was investigated in 7 native sheep breeds reared in Turkey by using PCR-RFLP method. The frequencies of M and N alleles of CAST gene in Kangal (n= 31), Awassi (n= 26), Güney Karaman (n= 23), Akkaraman (n= 21), Morkaraman (n= 34), Karayaka (n= 33), and Karakas (n= 22) sheep breeds were determined as 0. 92-0.08, 0.59-0.41, 0.67-0.33, 0.69-0.31, 0.87-0.13, 0.86-0.14, 0.89-0.11 respectively. According to chi-square test, all the other populations were consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, whereas Morkaraman, İvesi and Karayaka populations showed significant (P<0.05) deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for the CAST gene.

Akkaraman Koyun Irkında Callipyge Gen Polimorfizmin Araştırılması

“…Most of the molecular studies on meat yield in Turkish sheep breeds have been performed on the cast, leptin, and a few other genes, while the CLPG gene was studied less (Balcıoğlu et al, 2014;Bayram et al, 2019;Kırıkçı et al, 2021;Kırıkçı, 2022). In addition, there is currently no study that describes the genetic structure of the Akkaraman sheep breed for the CLPG gene.…”
