Resumen
WE DEVELOPED EIGHT POLYMORPHIC MICROSATELLITE LOCI FOR THE HUEMUL (HIPPOCAMELUS BISULCUS) AND TESTED FOR CROSS-SPECIES AMPLIFICATION IN SIX OTHER UNGULATE SPECIES. MICROSATELLITE LOCI WERE TYPED IN 58 INDIVIDUALS FROM THE LAGO COCHRANE NATIONAL RESERVE, CHILE. TWO TO FIVE ALLELES WERE OBSERVED PER LOCUS (MEAN 3.4) AND OBSERVED HETEROZYGOSITY RANGED FROM 0.29 TO 0.60 (MEAN 0.53). ONE TO FIVE LOCI AMPLIFIED IN OTHER UNGULATE SPECIES. THESE MARKERS WILL BE USED TO REFINE STUDIES OF POPULATION STRUCTURE AND ALLOW FOR MORE ACCURATE PEDIGREE RECONSTRUCTION IN THE HUEMUL.
