Abstract
AbstractApproximately 5000 clones from a partial genomic library of Ostrea edulis DNA were screened with (CA)15 and (GA)15 probes. Fifty‐six positive clones were sequenced, with 24 containing a microsatellite sequence. Primers were designed for 14 loci, and the five most reliably amplifying were developed further. Four of these showed high levels of variability and only one locus (HA21) showed a significant deviation from Hardy–Weinberg expectations, with an excess of homozygotes. These microsatellite DNA markers will be powerful tools for the study of wild and hatchery stocks of this commercially important species.
