Data from: Development and characterization of thirty-three microsatellite markers for the Patagonian sprat, Sprattus fuegensis (Jenyns, 1842), using paired-end Illumina shotgun sequencing

We isolated and characterized a total of 33 microsatellite loci from the
Patagonian sprat Sprattus fuegensis. Loci were screened in 24 individuals
from the inshore waters of the Aysén Fjord, Chile. The number of alleles
per locus ranged from 7 to 24, observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.217
to 0.875, and the probability of identity values ranged from 0.006 to
0.133. These new loci will provide tools for examining population genetic
structure, estimating effective population size and provide information to
fisheries management.
