Table 2.

Microsatellite loci used in the study. Name, GenBank accession numbers, repeat motif and primer sequences (F: forward, R: reverse primer) are given for the three newly developed microsatellite loci for L. neglectus. For other loci see Fjerdingstad et al [58]. The product size in basepairs (bp) and the optimal annealing temperature in degrees Celsius (°C) are shown for L. neglectus. N, number of studied populations of L. neglectus; n, number of individuals; k, observed number of alleles; Ho, observed heterozygosity; He, expected heterozygosity assuming no genetic differentiation among populations.
