Abstract :This study aims to determine the correlation between gene polymorphisms thought to be related to force and power and explosive power in elite Turkish female volleyball players. Sixty-eight female volleyball players (age: 22.13±4.01 years, weight: 66.58±8.72 kg, height: 180.04±7.01 cm, body mass index: 20.71±4,4 kg/m2)playing in the Turkish Women\\\'s Volleyball Super League and 1st Leagues, 14% of which are national athletes and 94 college student who doesn\\\'t exercise regularly (age: 19.79±1.40 years, weight: 58.22±9.49 kg, height: 167.57±6.84 cm, body mass index: 20.70± 2.5 kg/m2) participated in the study. 2 ml venous blood sample was taken from forearm from participants, and DNA isolation was performed, and HIF1A (rs11549465), PPARG (rs1801282), NOS3 (rs2070744), and AMPD1 (rs17602729), gene polymorphisms were performed. Anthropometric measurements of the participants were taken. Following the anthropometric measurements, jump tests were applied to determine the explosive power. According to the statistical analysis results, no statistically significant difference was found between vertical jump and countermovement jump test results according to genotypes of gene polymorphisms of the volleyball players in the experimental group and the participants in the control group. In conclusion, no correlation was established between gene polymorphisms of HIF1A (rs11549465), PPARG (rs1801282), NOS3 (rs2070744), and AMPD1 (rs17602729), and explosive power among elite Turkish female volleyball players.
