Development of polymorphic microsatellite markers for the Trichoglossus haematodus and cross-species amplification in Trichoglossus moluccanus

Backgroud Trichoglossus haematodus is the most popular parrots globally and one of the most bred species in Korea's zoos. However, despite its popularity, there are limited studies on the population genetics of this species. Methods and results In this study, 10 polymorphic microsatellite marke...

Description
Summary:Backgroud Trichoglossus haematodus is the most popular parrots globally and one of the most bred species in Korea's zoos. However, despite its popularity, there are limited studies on the population genetics of this species. Methods and results In this study, 10 polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for T. haematodus. The number of alleles ranged from 6 to 9 (mean 7.9). Null alleles were present in two loci (TH-07 and TH-08). The observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.4444 to 1.0000 (mean 0.7000). One locus (TH-08) indicated a significant deviation from the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction ( p
