• Boleophthalmus pectinirostris
• Microsatellite
• 5 '-anchored PCR

The mudskipper Boleophthalmus pectinirostris is an important aquaculture species in China. It is endangered due to the loss and fragmentation of natural habitat, seawater pollution and overfishing. In this study, ten polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated by the 5'-anchored polymerase chain reaction technique. Population genetic parameters were estimated on 60 wild individuals collected from Jiuduansha wetland in Yangtze River estuary. The number of alleles ranged from 3 to 14. The observed(H (O)) and expected(H (E)) heterozygosities ranged from 0.2500 to 0.8500 and from 0.3679 to 0.8692, respectively. This suite of microsatellite loci will facilitate future studies of the genetic status of wild and hatchery bred populations of B. pectinirostris.
