Abstract
Neverita didyma is a commercially important and over-exploited species. In order to investigate its genetic diversity and population structure, 20 polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 20, and the observed and expected heterozygosities varied from 0.276 to 1.000 and from 0.331 to 0.939, respectively. These microsatellites will be a useful tool for fisheries management and conservation programme for this species.
