Isolation of polymorphic tetranucleotide microsatellite markers for the green‐eyed tree frog (Litoria genimaculata)

We have isolated 16 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the green‐eyed tree frog, Litoria genimaculata, from genomic libraries enriched for (AAGG)_n and (AAAG)_n repetitive elements. The number of alleles ranges from four to 14 per locus with the observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.36 to 1.00. These markers will be useful for analysis of questions concerning population genetic structure and speciation.
