Twelve microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized in the endangered yellow-eyed penguin (Megadyptes antipodes) using enriched genomic libraries. Polymorphic loci revealed two to eight alleles per locus and observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.21 to 0.77. These loci will be suitable for assessing current and historical patterns of genetic variability in yellow-eyed penguins.
利用富集基因组文库,从濒危的黄眼企鹅(Megadyptes antipodes)中分离和鉴定了 12 个微卫星位点。多态性位点显示每个位点有 2 到 8 个等位基因,观察到的杂合度范围从 0.21 到 0.77。这些位点将适合评估黄眼企鹅当前和历史遗传变异模式。
