CHIIMP: An automated high‐throughput microsatellite genotyping platform reveals greater allelic diversity in wild chimpanzees

Abstract Short tandem repeats (STRs), also known as microsatellites, are commonly used to noninvasively genotype wild‐living endangered species, including African apes. Until recently, capillary electrophoresis has been the method of choice to determine the length of polymorphic STR loci. However, t...
