Abstract
Eleven polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized in Hyporhamphus sajori. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 23, and the observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.1034 to 1 and from 0.4701 to 0.9564, respectively. Three loci deviated significantly from HWE after correction for multiple tests. No null allele was found. These microsatellite loci would be useful for further studies on population structure and genetic diversity of H. sajori.
