Abstract
Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite markers with tetranucleotide repeats were developed for the bearded goby (Sufflogobius bibarbatus) from partial genomic DNA libraries using a repeat enrichment protocol, and characterized using two putative populations from the northern Benguela. The average number of alleles per locus ranged from 4 to 34, and the observed heterozygosities across loci were between 0.237 and 0.983. We also tested the utility of these markers in two other marine gobies; sand goby Pomatoschistus minutus and two-spotted goby Gobiusculus flavescens. These polymorphic markers can be employed to investigate population structure and related questions of the bearded goby.
