    The Effects of Age and Gender on Some Biochemical Serum Parameters in Zom Sheep Raised in the Vicinity of Karacadag
    (Israel Veterinary Medical Assoc, 2015) Durak, M. H.; Erkan, R. E. C.; Celik, R.; Yokus, B.; Kurt, D.; Gurgoze, S.
    A hundred and seventy three clinically healthy Zom sheep aged 1-6 years and grazed on grassland under similar conditions in six villages of the Karacadag and Ovabag towns of the central, Bismil and Cinar districts of Diyarbakir province. The effect of gender in the evaluation for serum glucose, gamma similar to glutamyltransferase, and alkaline phosphatase were observed for Zom sheep. The effect of age on the assessment made by taking into consideration the serum cholesterol, direct bilirubin, very low-density lipoprotein, alkaline phosphatase, gamma similar to glutamyltransferase and direct bilirubin and high-density lipoprotein were also observed. In conclusion the age and gender of the Zom sheep needs to be taken into consideration in order to ensure an accurate clinical diagnosis and prognosis.

    Genetic Polymorphisms of Cyp19 and Myostatin Genes in Turkish Indigenous Sheep Breeds
    (Hellenic Veterinary Medical Soc, 2017) Akis, I; Gursel, Esen F.; Cakmak, Hacihasanoglu N.; Atmaca, G.; Yardibi, H.; Ates, A.; Durak, M. H.
    Growth and meat production traits are very important in sheep breeding. Cyp19 gene has a major role in reproductive activity and growth due to its function in estrogen synthesis. Another gene affecting growth traits is Myostatin (MSTN) gene, which mainly regulates skeletal muscle growth. In this study allele frequencies of genetic polymorphism in Cyp19 and Myostatin genes were identified by PCR-RFLP method in five indigenous Turkish sheep breeds, Chiose, Imroz, Kivircik, Zom and Morkaraman. Digestion of Cyp19 gene with HaeIII only revealed uncut AA genotype and digestion of MSTN with DraI also revealed only uncut AA genotype. Both loci analyzed in this study were found to be monomorphic in five Turkish indigenous sheep breeds. These highly conserved parts of the two genes can be useful for molecular evolutionary studies in sheep. Further studies regarding association analysis of Cyp19 and MSTN in sheep should be conducted.
