Tóm tắt

Dendrocincla turdina has a poor ability to survive in fragmented areas and inhabits the depleted Brazilian Atlantic Forest. For the assessment of genetic diversity in this species, nineteen microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized, 11 of which were polymorphic for the population studied. Observed and expected heterozigosity ranged from 0.07 to 0.80 and 0.08 to 0.91, respectively. Cross-amplification was successfully obtained with two other species from the family Dendrocolaptidae: Xiphorhynchus fuscus and Sittasomus griseicapillus. The newly developed primers reported here constitute a useful tool for genetic population analyses on D. turdina and, potentially, other related species.
