Eight polymorphic microsatellite markers for the spotted babylon, Babylonia areolata (Buccinidae)
“Eight polymorphic microsatellite markers for the spotted babylon, Babylonia areolata (Buccinidae)”, vol. 10, pp. 3230-3235, 2011.
, The spotted babylon, Babylonia areolata, is one of the most extensively cultured marine mollusks in southeast Asia. Eight polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for this species, from a microsatellite-enriched library. These markers, characterized in 32 individuals from a hatchery population, were polymorphic, with allele numbers ranging from 6 to 18 per locus, expected and observed heterozygosities ranging from 0.68 to 0.94 and 0.56 to 0.81, respectively.
