PRIMER NOTE Characterization of 35 Microsatellite Loci in the Pacific Lion-Paw Scallop (Nodipecten subnodosus) and Their Cross-Species Amplification in Four Other Scallops of the Pectinidae Family Ana M. Ibarra,1 Jessica L. Petersen,2 Thomas R. Famula,2 and Bernie May2 1Aquaculture Genetics Laboratory, Centro de Investigaciones Biológicas del Noroeste S.C., La Paz B.C.S., México (Corresponding author: [email protected]) 2Department of Animal Science, University of California-Davis, Davis, California, USA Abstract Four microsatellite-enriched DNA libraries yielded 35 microsatellite loci from 100 primer pairs designed for Pacific lion-paw scallop,Nodipecten subnodosus. The number of alleles ranged from four to 28. Three of the 35 loci were not in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium and linkage disequi- librium was found for one pair of loci. These microsatellites will be used to analyze the popula- tion structure of the species in Mexico’s Baja Peninsula to propose management strategies for scallop aquaculture development. Twenty-six primer pairs cross-amplified inNodipecten nodo- sus, whereas none (Argopecten ventricosus) or few cross-amplified in theArgopecten species.
