Microsatellite DNA markers for population‐genetic studies of Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus thynnus) and other species of genus Thunnus
Abstract Twenty‐five microsatellites from Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus thynnus ) were characterized. All 25 microsatellites were polymorphic; the number of alleles among up to 56 individuals surveyed ranged from two to 23. Atlantic bluefin tuna are highly exploited and major questions rem...
