To obtain a set of microsatellite markers for the Queensland fruit fly Bactrocera tryoni, a genomic library was screened with a number of simple repeat oligonucleotide probes. Sequencing recovered 22 repeat loci. The microsatellite sequences were short, with repeat numbers ranging from five to 11...
