Ten novel polymorphic dinucleotide microsatellite loci cloned from the Antarctic fur seal Arctocephalus gazella

Ten new dinucleotide microsatellite loci were isolated from the Antarctic fur seal Arctocephalus gazella. These markers should prove useful for studying the reproductive ecology of Antarctic fur seals and other related pinniped species.
