Abstract
AbstractWe identified 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers forAlouatta caraya. Three markers were isolated from an enriched genomic library ofA. caraya(AC14, AC17, AC45), five were previously described inHomo sapiens(TGMS1, TGMS2, D5S117, D8S165, D17S804), and three were identified forLagothix lagotricha(1110, 1118, 157). Forty‐eight individuals from one Argentinean population were genotyped, yielding heterozygosity values between 0.146 and 0.792. These markers provide an exclusion power of 0.922 when neither parent is known (0.992 when one parent is known) and are suitable for parentage analysis, population genetics and phylogeographical studies ofA. caraya,the southernmost primate in the New World.
