Turkish grammarians do not consider genitive form of a noun a "case". The cases of a noun in Turkish are as follows:

Yalin: Amerika
-i : Amerikayi (may be translated in many ways depending on the context)
-e: Amerikaya (to America)
-de: Amerikada (at/in/on America)
-den: Amerikadan (from America)

See here (in Turkish) https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%B0smin_h%C3%A2lleri

and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_grammar#Case

But some non-Turkish sources see it differently: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Turkish/Cases
