Mice of the genus Peromyscus, including several endangered subspecies, occur throughout North America and have been important models for conservation research. We describe 526 primer pairs that amplify microsatellite DNA loci for P. maniculatus bairdii, 467 of which also amplify in P. polionotus subgriseus. For 12 of these loci, we report diversity data from a natural population. These markers will be an important resource for future genomic studies of Peromyscus evolution and mammalian conservation.
白足鼠属的小鼠,包括几个濒危亚种,分布于北美各地,一直是保护研究的重要模型。我们描述了526对引物,这些引物可扩增白氏鹿鼠的微卫星DNA位点,其中467对引物也可在亚灰色鹿鼠中扩增。对于其中12个位点,我们报告了来自一个自然种群的多样性数据。这些标记将成为未来白足鼠进化和哺乳动物保护基因组研究的重要资源。
