Microsatellites Cross-Species Amplification across Some African Cichlids
Table 2
Microsatellite loci tested for cross-species amplification with indications of repeat structure observed in O. niloticus (according to Lee and Kocher, [13]), allele size range of the amplified fragment across all tested species, PCR and electrophoresis conditions (labeled primer, annealing temperature/magnesium concentration (mM)/electrophoresis Volt-hour), and amplification quality obtained after PCR optimisation tests (from very good ++ to poor −−; see detail of the categories in main text); loci presenting a wide cross-species amplification efficiency are in bold.
