“…Published studies have shown that microsatellites of pelagic species are highly polymorphic (Ruzzante, Taggart & Cook, 1996; Carlsson et al, 2004) especially for scombrids, and particularly for the Scomberomorus species (Renshaw et al, 2009; Lin et al, 2012). The observed heterozygosity was similar to those previously reported for another congeneric species, such as S. cavalla (; Broughton, Stewart & Gold, 2002 and ; Gold, Pak & Devries, 2002); S. brasiliensis (; Gold et al, 2010), and Scomberomorus semifasciatus (; Broderick et al, 2011).…”

The genetic homogeneity of the Monterey Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus concolor population in the Gulf of California was confirmed using nine nuclear microsatellite loci in combination with mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences. Samples were collected from the upper and central Gulf areas, representing the two main biogeographical regions of the Gulf. The analyses support the existence of a single panmictic population of S. concolor inhabiting the Gulf of California which in terms of fishery management represents a single genetic stock. Additionally, the contemporary effective population size estimated for the S. concolor population (Ne = 3056.9) was high and similar to another pelagic species. The gene flow seems to be bidirectional between the upper and central Gulf, which coincides with the seasonal movements between both regions related to spawning and feeding activities. A population expansion event was detected, which agrees with a colonization-expansion hypothesis of the S. concolor population in the Gulf.

“…Microsatellite markers are an extremely important tool for genetic studies and for the conservation and management of genetic resources (10,11). Previous studies identified microsatellite markers of tree shrew (2,(12)(13)(14); however, microsatellite markers specific to Tupaia belangeri yaoshanensis remain to be determined.…”

Abstract. The Chinese tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri yaoshanensis) has long been proposed to serve as an animal model for studying human diseases. However, its overall genetic diversity and population structure remain largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the genetic diversity of population microsatellite DNA in wild Tupaia belangeri yaoshanensis. Sixteen microsatellite loci were assessed in 76 wild Tupaia belangeri yaoshanensis. The target microsatellite DNA fragments were amplified from the peripheral blood DNA of the animals by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the PCR-amplified products were verified by DNA sequencing and used for the analysis of allele, effective allele, genetic heterozygosity, polymorphism and population structure. Our results showed that of the 16 microsatellite loci examined, 5 microsatellite loci were monomorphic and 11 microsatellite loci were polymorphic. We detected 61 alleles in the polymorphic loci and found 2-10 (with an average of 5.5455) alleles per locus. Our data also showed that the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.087 to 0.8947 and 0.1368 to 0.7892 with an average of 0.3968 and 0.4796, respectively. Taken together, the results revealed a considerably high heterozygosity and high genetic diversity at the molecular level in the population of wild Tupaia belangeri yaoshanensis. The identified markers from the present study may be useful for individual identification and parentage testing, as well as for the quantification of population heterogeneity in the Chinese tree shrew.

“…Microsatellite markers have been proven to be an extremely valuable tool for genetic studies and for conservation and management of genetic resources (Bai et al, 2011;Lin et al, 2012). At present, just 11 polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers have been reported for S. marmoratus (Xu et al, 2010).…”

ABSTRACT.A (GT/CA) 13 -microsatellite-enriched genomic library of the false kelpfish Sebastiscus marmoratus was constructed, and 20 polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized. The polymorphisms were investigated in 48 wild individuals from a single population collected from the northern Yellow Sea. The numbers of alleles per locus varied from 4-22 with an average of 9. The observed and One locus significantly deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and one pair of loci was in linkage disequilibrium determined by Bonferroni's correction. Cross-species amplification was also conducted in the related species Inimicus japonicus, collected from East China Sea. The result showed that six loci could be amplified from I. japonicus DNAs. These polymorphic markers would be useful for assessment of genetic variation and population structure of scorpionfish.
