Isolation and characterization of fifteen microsatellite loci for the giant clam Hippopus hippopus (family Tridacnidae) /Tiavouane, Josina Jacob, T. /Dumas, Pascal /Fauvelot, Cécile Hippopus hippopus Tridacnidae Microsatellite loci Marine protected area Paternity analyses New Caledonia Fifteen polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for Hippopus hippopus in order to assess the effectiveness of population replenishment within marine protected areas in New Caledonia. Number of alleles varied from 2 to 11 per locus, observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.300 to 0.866 and 0.495 to 0.858 respectively. Significant deviations from HWE were detected in two loci. Cross-amplifications were tested in four other species of Tridacnidae. 2014 text https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010062453 fdi:010062453 Tiavouane Josina, Jacob T., Dumas Pascal, Fauvelot Cécile.
