Premise Of The Study: To investigate genetic structure of the pollinator and, indirectly, gene flow in its plant host, Blastophaga javana microsatellite primers were developed.
Methods And Results: Ten polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences Containing (FIASCO) repeats protocol. Numbers of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 19, with observed and expected heterozygosities ranging from 0.000 to 0.800 and from 0.000 to 0.925, respectively.
Conclusions: These markers may be useful for further investigation of population genetics of Blastophaga javana and other congeneric species.
