Isolation and description of eight polymorphic microsatellite loci for the winged‐kelp Alaria nana

Here I report on the isolation of eight microsatellites from the winged‐kelp, Alaria nana, using an enrichment protocol. Using 55 individuals from Tatoosh, WA and complete data at all loci, loci displayed 6–11 alleles with observed and expected heterozygosities of 0.396–0.754, and 0.769–0.872 respectively. Using an isolated, randomly breeding subset, six of the eight loci were determined to be in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. These markers will be useful in assessing population structure in the intertidal and inferring patterns of dispersal.
