Abstract

Twenty-one nuclear-encoded microsatellites were isolated from an enriched genomic DNA library of coney, Cephalopholisfulva, and characterized in both C. fulva and red hind, Epinephelusguttatus. The microsatellites include 16 dinucleotide repeats, two trinucleotide repeats, and three tetranucleotide repeats. An additional 11 microsatellites, isolated originally from an enriched genomic DNA library of E. guttatus, were characterized in both E. guttatus and C. fulva. Both grouper species support important commercial and recreational fisheries in the western Atlantic along the coasts of North, Central, and South America.
