Novel polymorphic microsatellite loci for the Korean Black Scraper (Thamnaconus modestus), and their application to the genetic characterization of wild and farmed populations.

Abstract excerpt

In this study, we developed 20 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the Korean black scraper, Thamnaconus modestus (Günther, 1877), Monacanthidae, and used them to compare allelic variation between wild and hatchery populations in Korea. All loci were readily amplified and demonstrated allelic variability, with the number of alleles ranging from 5-35 in the wild population and 5-22 in the farmed population. The...
