Parentage analyses in ant colonies using simple sequence repeat loci.

Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 1993

Evans J D

Abstract excerpt

In ants of genus Myrmica, female progeny may be the offspring of one to several different queens. In addition, both workers and queens are capable of producing haploid male offspring. Even in such complex colonies, parentage can be assigned on the basis of genotypic variation at highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat loci. Methods are described for isolating and screening dinucleotide repeat loci in ants....
