Abstract
We described the isolation and characterization of 15 new microsatellite loci from golden mandarin fish, Siniperca scherzeri. The analysis of variability was performed in 34 individuals. Allelic diversity ranged from 2 to 7 alleles per locus, with observed and expected heterozygosities ranging from 0.294 to 1.000 and 0.261 to 0.740, respectively. Seven loci deviated significantly from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction, and no significant linkage disequilibrium were found among 15 pairs of loci following the Bonferroni correction. These are the first microsatellite markers characterized from the S. scherzeri. We expect these microsatellite markers to be useful for population genetic studies in this species.
