Abstract

We isolated and characterized 22 polymorphic microsatellite loci in Lutjanus erythropterus using a (GT)13 -enriched genomic library. We found between 2 and 8 alleles per locus, with a mean of 4.85. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.065 to 0.867 and from 0.085 to 0.832, respectively, with means of 0.461 and 0.529, respectively. Allele frequencies in three loci were found to deviate from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Evidence for null alleles was found for three loci. These markers will be useful for distinguishing released captive-bred L. erythropterusindividuals from wild individuals. © FUNPEC-RP.
