A microsatellite panel for triploid verification in the abalone Haliotis midae
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: R Slabbert --- Aquaculture Division, Department of Genetics, South Africa N Prins --- Aquaculture Division, Department of Genetics, South Africa D Brink --- Aquaculture Division, Department of Genetics, South AfricaA method for ploidy verification of triploid and diploid Haliotis midae was developed using molecular microsatellite markers. In all, 30 microsatellite loci were tested in control populations. A final micro satellite multiplex consisting of seven markers were optimised and a... -
