Short summary
In this study, κ-casein (CSN3) and lactoferrin (LTF) genes were studied firstly in Turkish donkeys. PCR-RFLP and DNA sequencing of these gene regions were performed. CSN3 and the LTF gene had no enzyme recognition sites with PstI, DraII and MboI restriction enzymes in all of the studied samples. However, the LTF gene was only distinguished with EagI restriction enzyme and three genotypes were identified. The G allele was predominant in the LTF-EagI gene in the studied Turkish donkey populations.
