Isolation and characterization of variable (GT) n repetitive sequences from Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.
Summary Microsatellites are islands of long repeats of mono‐, di‐ or trinucleotides evenly distributed in the eukaryotic genome with an average distance of 50–100 kb. They display a high degree of length polymorphism and heterozygosity at individual loci, making them highly useful as markers in the...
