Abstract
We isolated and characterized a set of 30 novel microsatellite loci for Grant’s gazelle (Nanger granti). Loci were screened in 24 individuals from a population in Laikipia County, Kenya. The mean number of alleles per locus was 3.73 (range 1–10), and observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.00 to 0.870 (mean 0.404). The Grant’s gazelle is currently listed as a species of least concern by the IUCN, but declining numbers across a large part of its range are a cause for concern. These new loci will facilitate basic behavioral, ecological, and population genetic studies of a species facing declining populations.
