Abstract

We describe 12 polymorphic tetranucleotide and pentanucleotide loci in the red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis). An average of 6.25 alleles per locus was identified based on a screening of 21 individuals from the Joseph W. Jones Ecological Center in southwestern Georgia. Observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.048 to 0.952. These markers could be used for both population level studies and individual identification.
