Thirteen microsatellite loci were identified and primer sequences and amplification conditions were determined. All the 13 loci were polymorphic in black, brown, pastel and wild mink (n = 86), generating between 4 to 12 alleles per locus. Six of the primer pairs revealed polymorphisms in American pine marten.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
