In this study, genetic relationships within and between the sheep breeds of Turkey called Bafra, Ivesi, Karayaka, Morkaraman, Sakiz and Turkish Merino was determined by microsatellite method. All breeds were screened for OarCP34, MAF65, MAF209 and DYMS1 loci by using ABI PRISM 310 sequencer. The obtained data were evaluated by using "Genetix 4.05" and "Populations 1.0" statistics programs. It was determined that the Turkish Merino breed had the highest heterozygosity. The shortest genetic distance was found between Sakiz and Morkaraman breeds and the longest genetic distance was observed between Turkish Merinos and Ivesi sheep breeds. As a result, in this study, genetic characterization in Turkey Local Sheep Breeds called Bafra, Sakiz, Karayaka, Ivesi and Turkish Merino breeds were made by using microsatellite markers.
