| Abstract: | Fifteen microsatellite markers were developed for Telmatobufo bullocki, a critically endangered frog species from Chile. Genetic diversity that was assessed in 29 individuals from one location showed 3–19 alleles per locus. These markers were then tested for cross-species amplification in two related and similarly threatened species. The markers will be used in genetic studies aiding the management and conservation of T. bullocki. |
