摘要
Seventeen polymorphic microsatellite loci were characterized in two Canadian species-at-risk, Great Basin spadefoot (Spea intermontana, N = 9) and the Western painted turtle (Chrysemys picta bellii, N = 8), from GT(n) enriched genomic libraries and cross-taxa amplification. Number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 9, with an average of 3.9 and 4.3 alleles/locus in Great Basin spadefoot and Western painted turtle, respectively. Mean expected heterozygosities were comparatively high (0.43-0.52), as was the power to distinguish between individuals relative to the number of loci characterized per species (multilocus P-ID = 9.2 x 10(-5) -1.6 x 10(-5)). These loci will be fundamental in generating historical population information in support of conservation efforts for these two imperiled species.
