Statistics of the nine microsatellite loci.

<p>At = Annealing temperature (subscript ₁ and ₂ correspond to the first and second PCR cycle). Na = Number of alleles per locus, Size = observed range in fragment size in base pairs (bp), Observed (H_O) and Expected (H_E) heterozygosity per locus. H_O deficiency loci are highlight in bold (p<0.05).</p>a<p>36 Palsbøll et al., 1999,</p>b<p>34 Bérubé et al. 2005,</p>c<p>37 Bérubé et al. 200,</p>d<p>38 Valsecchi and Amos 1996.
