Abstract
Microsatellites were isolated from the western rainbowfish, Melanotaenia australis, for use as molecular markers. Twelve polymorphic loci were found. When characterized using 32 individuals, these had between two and 24 alleles each, and observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.00 to 0.97. Ten loci were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and all of them showed independent inheritance. These loci will be useful for the study of molecular subdivision in this species.
