Novel polymorphic microsatellite markers for the common pandora (Pagellus erythrinus)

Details of six highly polymorphic dinucleotide and one highly polymorphic tetranucleotide microsatellite markers are provided for Pagellus erythrinus. These markers are highly polymorphic, with an expected heterozygosity ranging from 0.713 to 0.959 and allele numbers ranging from seven to 36. These microsatellite markers should help determine population genetic structure and fisheries stocks for management purposes.
