Abstract
- Crimson red snapper ( Lutjanus erythropterus) is an important marine foodfish species in Asia with great potentials for aquaculture. We isolated nine polymorphic microsatellites, among which eight were tetranucleotide repeats, and one was CA-microsatellite. The average allele number present in 48 individuals was 11.1/locus, ranging from three to 33. The expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.49 to 0.97 with an average of 0.74. Six of the nine markers conformed to the Hardy–Weinberg expectations. No pairwise markers showed the possibility of linkage. Protocols for two multiplex polymerase chain reactions (PCRs), each amplifying two and seven markers, respectively, were presented. The developed microsatellites and optimized multiplex PCRs will be useful for studying population structure of wild stocks and parentage assignment for cultured populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
