Microsatellite characteristics calculated using the 46 individuals. Observed allele size range, number of alleles per locus across samples (Na), mean allelic richness per sample (Ar), unbiased expecte
Summary of polymerase chain reaction amplification (PCR) conditions for the eight microsatellite loci used to examine 12 Malacosoma californicum pluviale families. [MgCl2], magnesium chloride concentr
To evaluate the performance of the Micness method, we compared the genotypes assignedby MicNeSs to the genotypes obtained from the GCS method. We amplified several target microsatellite loci by PCR an
