Özet: The aim of this study was to determine the genetic variation of MYF-5 and STAT5A genes in Anatolian water buffalo which was the only buffalo breed reared in Turkey by using the PCR-RFLP method. In this study, 120 Anatolian water buffalo were examined. After PCR amplification for MYF-5 gene, 512 bp PCR products were digested with TaqI enzyme. Although no AA genotype was found, the frequency of GG and AG genotypes were 0.77 and 0.33. PCR products of 215 bp for STAT5A gene were digested with AvaI enzyme and showed that all of the Anatolian water buffalo examined had monomorphic in terms of CC genotype. Anatolian water buffalo were found in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to MYF-5-TaqI polymorphism.
