T _M (°C), annealing temperature; TD, touch-down PCR; A, number of alleles per locus; H _O, mean observed heterozygosity; H _E, mean expected heterozygosity; P _ID, probability that two individuals drawn at random share identical genotypes; P _IDsib, probability of identity among siblings. STR loci are sorted according to the increasing order of their P _ID (P _IDsib) single-locus values (i.e., the locus at the top is the most informative one), and a sequentially multi-loci P _ID (P _IDsib) is reported for each locus.
