“…However, our results are valuable not only because this is the first report on the genetic structure of South Korean populations of the Korean field mouse but also because we raise the hypothesis of the Taebaek mountains discontinuity of gene flow. To test this hypothesis, we should investigate more samples using optimal primer set (Kim et al, 2008). In combination with previously developed microsatellite loci (Eo et al, 2009), the newly developed markers in this study are valuable to construct an optimal set of markers with increasing power to estimate ecological parameters associated with population structure of Korean field mice.…”

“…genotyping have been reported: hidden allelic diversity, problems with PCR amplification (e.g., readability and repeatability), selective neutrality, and linkage relationships between loci (Selkoe and Toonen, 2006;Kim et al, 2008). Such problems can be avoided by increasing the number of microsatellite loci available and then carefully selecting optimal markers from a large candidate pool (Selkoe and Toonen, 2006;Kim et al, 2008).…”

“…Such problems can be avoided by increasing the number of microsatellite loci available and then carefully selecting optimal markers from a large candidate pool (Selkoe and Toonen, 2006;Kim et al, 2008). Therefore, more microsatellite loci are of great value to improve the precision and accuracy in genetic estimates.…”

To provide more reliable genetic information on species and minimize experimental errors, biologists increase the number of genetic markers available and then carefully select optimal markers from a large candidate pool. We developed nine novel microsatellite markers from the Korean field mouse (Apodemus peninsulae), which is one of the most dominant forest animals in South Korea. The mean observed and expected heterozygosities across nine markers were 0.65 and 0.73, respectively, with an average polymorphic information content of 0.70. Using 17 microsatellite markers (nine polymorphic markers in this study, in combination with eight previously reported for the species), we conducted genetic analysis on the animals from six sampling locations. These locations are divided into the eastern (EAST) and the western (WEST) sides of the Taebaek mountain ranges in South Korea. Genetic diversity was high at both groups, with the mean expected heterozygosity of 0.77 in EAST and 0.78 in WEST. However, we did not observe strong evidence of genetic divergence between two groups. Future genetic research with more samples incorporating ecological study may clarify population structure in the species and the hypothesis of the mountains discontinuity of gene flow.

“…A core set of microsatellites for population genetics studies of Korean goral was screened by following criteria described by Kim et al [6]. We investigated 1) readability of each marker, 2) level of polymorphisms, 3) occurrence of null alleles, 4) level of selective neutrality [2], and 5) linkage equilibrium between loci.…”

“…A total of 23 loci, 8 new loci from this study and 15 loci developed by An et al [1], were tested to determine whether they meet the criteria to be defined core sets of microsatellite markers as suggested by Kim et al [6]. Eleven microsatellites satisfied all criteria (i.e.…”

In order to screen microsatellites for conservation genetics studies of the species, a total of 23 microsatellite loci from Korean goral (Naemorhedus caudatus), including 15 previously developed loci and 8 new loci in this study, were tested. Eleven microsatellites were screened and subjected to cross-species amplification using a test panel of four Caprinae species, Japanese serows (Capricornis crispus), Chinese gorals (Naemorhedus goral), Northern chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra) and domestic goats (Capra hircus). In addition, all eleven microsatellites (SY3A, SY12A, SY12B, SY48, SY58, SY71, SY76, SY84, SY84B, SY112, and SY129) satisfied the criteria to be a core set of microsatellites. This core set of microsatellites and cross-species amplification of Korean goral microsatellites were found to be helpful for high-resolution studies for conservation and management of Korean goral and other endangered Caprinae species.

Traditional population metric surveys are important in WCR integrated pest management (IPM), as such surveys can be effectively used to predict population abundances. Novel-use monitoring techniques such as genetics and geometric morphometrics can be used to provide valuable information on variation within and among populations. The monitoring techniques presented herein provide sound data to assist in the understanding of both WCR ecology and population genetics and may provide more information than that currently available using traditional techniques (e.g. sticky traps), and as such these additional techniques should be written into IPM for WCR.
