We describe the isolation and characterization of 11 polymorphic microsatellite loci from the recently discovered fruit fly pest, Bactrocera invadens. The polymorphism of these loci was tested in individual flies from two natural populations (Sri Lanka and Democratic Republic of Congo). Allele number per locus ranged from three to 15 and eight loci displayed a polymorphic information content greater than 0.5. These microsatellite loci provide useful markers for studies of population dynamics and invasion history of this pest species.
我们描述了从最近发现的水果蝇害虫 Bactrocera invadens 中分离和特征化的 11 个多态性微卫星位点。在来自两个自然种群（斯里兰卡和刚果民主共和国）的个体蝇中测试了这些位点的多态性。每个位点的等位基因数范围从三个到 15 个，有 8 个位点显示出大于 0.5 的多态信息含量。这些微卫星位点为研究该害虫种群动态和入侵历史提供了有用的标记。
