Development and characterization of highly polymorphic microsatellite loci for the Western Spadefoot toad, Pelobates cultripes

Nine highly polymorphic microsatellite markers were isolated and characterized for the Western Spadefoot, Pelobates cultripes. Remarkably, for this amphibian species high numbers of microsatellites were found as part of larger repeat containing regions, making primer design difficult. For nine loci,...
