R. da aGenome-wide discovery and characterization of microsatellite markers from Melipona fasciculata (HymenopterabApidae), cross-amplifi cation and a snapshot assessment of the genetic diversity in two stingless bee populations.h[electronic resource] c2018 aBrazilian native meliponines are currently threatened by increased human impacts. The assessment of their genetic variation by microsatellite DNA markers can assist in the conservation of populations and help in the planning and establishment of effi cient management strategies. The purpose of this study was to develop the fi rst set of microsatellite markers for Melipona fasciculata, selected from partial genome assembly of Illumina paired-end reads. Primer pairs were designed for each detected locus at their fl anking regions. Bee samples were genotyped from two different populations of Northeastern Brazil for marker characterization and validation... aApidae aHymenoptera aMarcador Molecular aAbelha sem ferrão1 aSOUZA, I.
