Abstract

We isolated new 10 polymorphic microsatellites from the tropical sea cucumber Stichopus chloronotus. These loci provide one class of variable genetic marker as the number of alleles ranged from 2 to 6 and the observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.083 to 1.0 and from 0.081 to 0.724, respectively. We consider that these loci are potentially useful for revealing clones (resulting from asexual repro) and then participate in detailing the genetic structure and gene flow among S. chloronotus populations.
