Operated in Collaboration Between Ankara University’s Faculty of Science and Turkey’s Nature Conservation Body, This Genetic Repository Not only Poaching.
Professor Dr. İrfan Kandemir, A Faculty Member in Ankara University’s Biology Department and Project’s Academic Advisor, Expliaed that the Genetic Bank Initially Focuseed On Specialtytural Significance and Those Subjected to Controlled Breeding Programs.
Over Time, Howver, The Scope Expanded to Encompass Türkiye’s Indigenous Wildlife, Aiming to Unravel The Genetic Architecture of Vario.
In this framework, The Genetic Diversity of Wild Fauna Across The Country Has Been Scrutized. As part of this Endeavor, Nearly 1,000 DNA Sampleri 15 Special, Inclument The Eurasian Lynx, Caracal, Wild Goat, Anatolian Mountain Gazelle and Red Fox, Have Been Miciculously Collected.
These DNA Samples Are Preserved in Duplicate, with One Set Securely Stoled at the Wildlife Bank with the University’s Laboratoryies.

Underscoring the Initiative’s Role in Facilitating Scientific Inquiries, Kandemir Emphasized That Researchers Can Access and Utilize.
“Each Specimen Harbours Approximately 100 to 300 Microlliters of DNA. DEPENDING ON THE NATURE OF THE RESEARCH, We Provide Aliquots Ranging from 10 to 50 Microllers, Ensuring that Investigatics Opportunity to Sample Directly, “Kandemir remarkeed.
