Abstract

AbstractEleven microsatellite loci derived from the genomic sequence data of Capitella capitata were characterized using 30 samples. The observed number of alleles per locus ranged from four to 36. The levels of observed and expected heterozygosities for polymorphic loci were from 0.10 to 0.87 and from 0.37 to 0.98, averaging 0.52 and 0.77, respectively. Analyses of Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium and genotypic linkage disequilibrium suggest the possible presence of both null alleles and Wahlund effect. One of the 11 loci was difficult to amplify for genotyping. Therefore, the rest 10 loci are good molecular markers for population genetic analysis.
