PMID: 21564561
Mol Ecol Resour. 2009 Jan;9(1):19-27. doi: 10.1111/j.1755-0998.2008.02214.x.

Many avian studies, aimed at collecting samples for genetic analysis, rely upon invasive procedures involving the capture and handling of parents and their offspring. Our goal was to develop a nondestructive method for sampling maternal DNA that would not...

Stegodyphus lineatus spiders live in groups consisting of closely related individuals. There appears to be no discrimination against related individuals as mates but females mate multiply, despite the fact that matings are shown to carry a cost. We have...

Lycoris longituba is a tulip-like ornamental plant in China. We report on the data mining of L. longituba expressed sequence tags (ESTs) to generate simple sequence repeat (SSRs) markers. Eighteen EST-SSRs were isolated and validated for 32 individuals. These...

Characterization of polymorphic microsatellite loci in the endangered Miho spine loach (Iksookimia choii) and cross-species amplification within the Cobitidae family.

The Miho spine loach (Iksookimia choii) is an endangered freshwater fish endemic to Korea. To aid a conservation programme for this species, 20 polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized in 67 individuals from three populations. The number of...

Development and characterization of 14 polymorphic microsatellite loci in the raccoon tick (Ixodes texanus).

Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed for the raccoon tick (Ixodes texanus). Three multiplexed panels comprising the loci were developed and 50 ticks collected from two infected raccoons (Procyon lotor) were genotyped. The number of alleles per locus ranged...

We describe polymerase chain reaction primers and amplification conditions for 13 highly polymorphic microsatellite DNA loci isolated from the Dalmatian wall lizard, Podarcis melisellensis. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 12 to 41, with levels of observed...

Isolation of sixteen autosomal loci and a sex-linked polymorphic microsatellite locus from the Milne-Edwards' sportive lemur (Lepilemur edwardsi).

Molecular ecology resources

Craul M, Dawson DA, Radespiel U, Zimmermann E, Bruford MW.

Mol Ecol Resour. 2009 Jan;9(1):333-5. doi: 10.1111/j.1755-0998.2008.02226.x.

We isolated 21 microsatellites from the Milne-Edwards' sportive lemur, Lepilemur edwardsi. Eighteen microsatellite sequences possessed sufficient flanking DNA for primer design. Seventeen loci amplified and were found to be polymorphic displaying two to 17 alleles in 32 unrelated individuals...

Isolation and characterization of 10 MHC Class I-associated microsatellite loci in tammar wallaby (Macropus eugenii).

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) contain genes which play a key role in immune response and mate choice, and are therefore of functional importance to molecular ecologists. Here we describe the design of 10 MHC Class I-associated microsatellite loci...

Species identification of North American guinea worms (Nematoda: Dracunculus) with DNA barcoding.

Dracunculus insignis is a nematode parasite that infects the subcutaneous tissues of mammals such as raccoon (Procyon lotor), mink (Neovison vison) and fisher (Martes pennanti). D. lutrae, a morphologically similar species, has only been recovered from the otter (Lontra...

Accurate genotyping of complex systems, such as the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) often requires simultaneous analysis of multiple co-amplifying loci. Here we explore the utility of the massively parallel 454 sequencing method as a universal tool for genotyping complex...

Leader of the pack: faecal pellet deposition order impacts PCR amplification in wombats.

DNA sourced from faeces is notoriously less reliable than that from tissue. Hence, understanding whether faecal pellet quality varies within faecal piles may be important for sample selection. We hypothesized that the order in which faecal pellets are deposited...
