We initially examined seven microsatellite loci, which were developed for O. araneola (Soliva et al. 2000) and three markers determined for O. fusca (Cotrim et al. 2009). Cross-species amplification ultimately identified six microsatellite loci useful for O. apifera variation studies (OFCA36, OFCA101, OaCT1, OaCT2, OaCT6, OaCT7). File prepared as Convert format.
