Abstract excerpt
Though microsatellite loci are usually found to be most polymorphic in the species in which they are first identified, we have found significant increases in polymorphisms in some cross-species applications. We present eight new trinucleotide microsatellite loci derived from two species of social wasps, Polistes annularis and Polistes bellicosus. We assessed the primers designed from these species and the degree...
