Isolation of polymorphic tri- and tetranucleotide microsatellite loci for the highly endangered Baw Baw frog (Philoria frosti)

We isolated 15 polymorphic microsatellite loci for the Baw Baw frog, Philoria frosti, from a genomic library enriched for (AAC)n and (AAAG)n repetitive elements. The number of alleles ranges from two to 14 per locus with the observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.04 to 0.96.
