Development of 21 microsatellite loci for puma (Puma concolor) ecology and forensics

2006-12-01

Abstract excerpt

We developed 21 microsatellite (13 dinucleotide and 8 tetranucleotide) primers specifically for pumas (Puma concolor). The primers were tested across 243 individuals from California and Nevada, and displayed an average of 5.5 alleles per locus. Previously, domestic cat (Felis catus) primers have been adapted for puma genetic studies. Puma-specific loci may reduce concerns associated with ascertainment bias, improv...
