| Abstract: | We characterized 23 polymorphic tetranucleotide microsatellite loci for Sacramento perch (Archoplites interruptus). This species is extirpated in its native range, the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta (California, USA), and is therefore targeted for recovery. A concerted effort is currently underway to re‐establish self‐sustaining populations of Sacramento perch in its native range. These microsatellites will be used to analyse the population structure of the species and, in conjunction with life history and physiological data, develop a comprehensive recovery plan. |
