A panel of microsatellites developed for meerkats (Suricata suricatta) by cross-species amplification and species-specific cloning
We describe the compilation of a panel of 12 polymorphic microsatellite loci suitable for inference of parentage and relatedness in the cooperatively breeding meerkat (Suricata suricatta). First, three of 70 microsatellite primer pairs characterized from other carnivores, specifically cat (Felix cat...
