Abstract

AbstractWe identified 14 novel polymorphic microsatellite loci in the black‐capped vireo (Vireo atricapillus). We also attempted to amplify and genotype these loci in other Vireo species, including the white‐eyed vireo (Vireo griseus), red‐eyed vireo (Vireo olivaceus), and blue‐headed vireo (Vireo solitarius). In 33 genotyped black‐capped vireos from two locations, total alleles ranged from six to 20, with observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.58 to 0.91 and expected heterozygosity from 0.65 to 0.93. Two loci had detectable levels of null alleles. Many of the loci were able to be amplified in the related Vireo species.
