Abstract excerpt
This short communication presents novel molecular tools designed for the endangered species Brycon orbignyanus. In conservation studies, the development of population-specific markers tailored to particular geographic regions is essential. In this study, the prevalence of imperfect microsatellites highlights a evolution of this type of microsatellite in a population of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul. Therefore, the...
