Abstract

The DNA barcode of Bruchidius varius collected from Dilek Peninsula and Büyük Menderes Delta National Park (DPNP) in Aydın province of Turkey is given for the first time. As DNA barcode, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) with a length of approximately 628 bp is sequenced and an illustrative barcode is presented along with nucleotide composition of the target gene location. Nucleotide composition of the given sequence includes 38.63% T, 27.98% A, 17.01% C and 16.38% G and showing a strong AT bias (66.61%). GC percentage is 33.39%. BLAST tool in NCBI is used to check the taxonomic position of the sequenced sample. DNA barcoding result fully corresponds with the morphological identification of the samples.

Özet

Dilek Yarımadası ve Büyük Menderes Deltası Milli Parkı’ndan (Aydın) toplanmış Bruchidius varius türüne ait DNA barkodu ülkemizden ilk kez verilmiştir. DNA barkodu olarak yaklaşık 628 bp uzunluğundaki mitokondriyal sitokrom c oksidaz altünite 1 (COI) geni kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca ilgili gen bölgesi sekansının nükleotid kompozisyonu verilmiştir. Nükleotid komposizyonunda kuvvetli bir AT yönelimi ((%66,61) görülmüş olup nükleotid oranları %38,63 T, %27,98 A, %17,01 C ve %16,38 G şeklindedir. GC oranı %33,39’dur. Dizilenen örneğin taksonomik durumu NCBI’da bulunan BLAST aracıyla kontrol edilmiştir. DNA barkodlama sonucu, örneklerin morfolojik teşhisi ile örtüşmektedir.
