Isolation of nine nuclear microsatellites in the common Mediterranean sea urchin, Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck).
???displayArticle.abstract???
Nine polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized for the edible common sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus. Loci were obtained from two genomic libraries enriched with different di-, tri- and tetranucleotides. Most microsatellites obtained were imperfect dinucleotides. Allelic variation was screened for a total of 56 individuals from two populations from North-Western Mediterranean. Microsatellites showed a number of alleles ranging from 13 to 35. Linkage disequilibrium was not detected between any pair of loci, and all loci showed a significant departure from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium which is not likely to be the result of null alleles, suggesting that demographic features may be acting upon this commercially interesting species.
