“…Single-humped camels are bred primarily for riding, exhibition, and transportation due to their resistance to hot climates (Çoruh and Turkmen 2016, Kohler-Rollefson 2022). Camels, regarded a holy animal in Turkish history, have drawn attention as the most signi cant domestic animal bred after horses and sheep, particularly in nomadic Turkish cultures in Central Asia (Deniz 2007, Erturk and Şanlı 2018, Faye 2016, Kohler-Rollefson 2022). The nomadic existence and concomitant commercial activities continued in Anatolia with the entrance of Turkish tribes that began migrating from Central Asia.…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the demographic, morphological, and genetic characteristics of local camel populations reared in the Turkiye provinces of Aydin, Denizli, and Antalya, which have a long history of camel breeding. Although Turkiye has an old history of camel breeding in its historical process, the number of scientific studies aimed at identifying camel populations in Turkiye is almost negligible. In this study, local camel populations in Aydin, Denizli and Antalya cities of Turkiye were examined in three dimensions as demographic, morphological and genetic. A face-to-face survey of 117 breeders was used to determine demographic definitions. While the region where local camels were detected the most was determined as Antalya Region with 78.6%, it was determined that 82.6% of the breeders participating in the survey preferred to breed camels due to their docile temperament. Body measurements were made on 42 camels for morphological identification. Moreover, DNA were sampled with oral swabs from 57 camels (include 42 camels) for phylogenetic analyses using 16 SSR microsatellite loci to identify the genetic structure of local camel populations. The genetic analyses using SSR markers revealed that the camel populations in the Antalya region had a considerably more isolated genetic structure than the Aydin and Denizli populations, and consequently, these populations may be regarded the native camel population.
