Molecular phylogeny of beech (Fagus) populations in Turkey
Abstract
Fagus orientalis Lipsky (Oriental beech) indigenously grows in the west from Balkans through Anatolia, to the east Caucasus, northern Iran and Crimea. In Turkey there is also natural distribution of Fagus sylvatica L. (European beech).
In this study molecular divergence of Oriental beech and European beech was investigated by ITS-5 region. Oriental beech and European beech samples were collected from 11 different natural populations. During sampling, populations were selected from four seed transfer zones of distributional area in Turkey. In addition to different zones, marginal populations were also sampled. For each population, leaves from 5 single-trees were harvested for DNA isolation. Nuclear ribosomal ITS-5 region sequences didn’t show different grouping in European and Oriental beech populations.
