%0 Journal Article %T Species Identification of Small Mammal Fauna in Bilecik Province and Molecular Researches for the Protection of Gene Resources %A Tuba Ya£¿c£¿ %J - %D 2019 %X In this study, it was aimed to determine the ecological, karyological and morphological properties of the fauna of small mammals from Bilecik province in between 2016-2017 years. Animals were identified by analyzing their nest structure, chromosomal feature and pelage color accordingly species-specific characteristics were recorded. The chromosome number and structure are presented as ideograms. In total 9 species were recorded, in which Mus musculus domesticus, Rattus rattus, Microtus lydius, Crocidura suaveolens species were the first data in Bilecik province. For the construction of cDNA¡¯s, RNA isolation was performed from the blood samples of these identified animals. These cDNA¡¯s were stocked for subsequent molecular studies. According to the field work the most sufficient habitats for small mammals were determined as forest coast and cultivated lands in Bilecik province %K K¨¹£¿¨¹k memeli faunas£¿ %K Karyoloji %K cDNA %K Bilecik %K T¨¹rkiye %U http://dergipark.org.tr/ijaws/issue/43026/478168
