Isolation of polymorphic tetranucleotide microsatellite markers for the silky short-tailed bat Carollia brevicauda

We isolated 10 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the silky short-tailed bat, Carollia brevicauda, from genomic libraries enriched for (AAGG)n repetitive elements. The number of alleles ranged from six to 25 per locus with the observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.29 to 0.95. These markers will...

Summary:We isolated 10 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the silky short-tailed bat, Carollia brevicauda, from genomic libraries enriched for (AAGG)n repetitive elements. The number of alleles ranged from six to 25 per locus with the observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.29 to 0.95. These markers will be useful for analysis of questions concerning population genetic structure and models of speciation. Results of cross-species amplification in Carollia castanea and Carollia perspicillata are also reported.
