Abstract EN
The objective of this study was to determine the intra- and intergenetic diversities of eight different goat populations in Turkey including Hair, Angora, Kilis, Yayladag, Shami, Honamli, Saanen, and Alpine.
A total of 244 DNA samples were genotyped using 11 microsatellites loci.
The genetic differentiation between breeds was considerable as a result of the statistically significant ( P < 0.001 ) pairwise F S T values of each pair of breeds.
Exceptionally, F S T values calculated for Honamli and Hair breeds were statistically nonsignificant ( P > 0.05 ).
Heterozygosity values ranged between 0.62 and 0.73.
According to the structure and assignment test, Angora and Yayladag goats were assigned to the breed they belong to, while other breeds were assigned to two or more different groups.
Because this study for the first time presented genetic data on the Yayladag goat, results of structure analysis and assigned test suggest that further analyses are needed using additional and different molecular markers.
