Abstract: | Freshwater mussels are among the most endangered fauna in the world, while little is known about their genetic diversity. We isolated 15 polymorphic microsatellite loci in a threatened freshwater mussel, Solenaia oleivora. The characteristics of these loci were tested with 46 individuals. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 15, and the PIC value ranged from 0.250 to 0.880. The observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.167 to 0.929 and from 0.297 to 0.900, with an average of 0.562 and 0.647, respectively. Eight loci deviated significantly from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. These polymorphic microsatellites will be useful for the assessment of population genetic diversity and resource conservation of S. oleivora. Cross-species amplification demonstrated that six of 15 microsatellite loci amplified successfully in two other unionid species. |
