Abstract
GA- and CA-enriched genomic libraries were constructed for the intertidal sponge Halichondria panicea. Unique repeat motifs identified varied from the expected simple dinucleotide repeats to more complex repeat units. All sequences tended to be highly repetitive but did not necessarily contain the targeted motifs. Seven microsatellite loci were evaluated on sponges from the clone source population. All seven were polymorphic with 5.43 ± 0.92 mean number of alleles. Six of the seven loci that could be resolved had mean heterozygosities of 0.14–0.68. The loci identified here will be useful for population studies.
