- 1 July 2009
Microsatellites are commonly used for mapping and population genetics because of their high heterozygosities and allelic variability (i.e., polymorphism). Microsatellite markers are generally more… Expand

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) alleles likely have adaptive value because of overdominance, in which case MHC heterozygous individuals have increased fitness relative to homozygotes. Because… Expand
Evolutionary relationship among three native and two crossbreed sheep breeds of Turkey: preliminary results
SUMMARY The Turkish native sheep breeds, possibly being the neighbours of the earliest domesticated sheep populations, might be harbouring important genetic characteristics to be employed in the… Expand

Abstract Movement and space use are important components of animal interactions with the environment. However, for hard-to-monitor raptor species, there are substantial gaps in our understanding of… Expand
Phylogenetic relationships of native Turkish cattle breeds using microsatellite markers
- Yusuf Özşensoy, E. Kurar, +5 authors V. Altunok

- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Molecular Evolution
- 10 June 2008
Alternative splicing (AS) of mRNA transcripts is increasingly recognized as a source of transcriptome diversity. To date, most AS studies have focused either on comparisons across taxa or on… Expand
Selection signatures in goats reveal copy number variants underlying breed-defining coat color phenotypes
Domestication and human selection have formed diverse goat breeds with characteristic phenotypes. This process correlated with the fixation of causative genetic variants controlling breed-specific… Expand
