Abstract: | The plains topminnow (Fundulus sciadicus) is a killifish endemic to the Great Plains region. Recent field surveys indicate that populations may be declining in northerly portions of its range and perhaps throughout. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of 11 microsatellite loci developed for population genetic studies in the species. We also conducted cross‐species amplifications to test primer efficacy in five additional taxa, including four killifishes. |
