Abstract
Isolation and characterization of new polymorphic microsatellite markers from the cuttlefish Sepiella maindroni (Cephalopoda; Sepiidae)
Author(s): B.-Y. Guo, P.Z. Qi, A.Y. Zhu, Z.M. Lv, W.C. Wang and C.W. WuFifteen new polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed for the cuttlefish Sepiella maindroni. In 32 individuals from a wild population of coastal Ningde, Fujian Province, China, the number of alleles at these loci varied between 2 and 12, with an average of 5.86. The mean observed and expected heterozygosities were 0.6917 and 0.5993, respectively. Among these polymorphic microsatellite loci, 4 (SM2, SM19, SM40, and SM81) significantly deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium after sequential Bonferroni’s correction. All of them were in linkage equilibrium. These microsatellite loci would be useful for evaluating the effect of releasing on extant S. maindroni populations as well as for investigating genetic diversity and population structure of this species.
