Abstract A technique based on 454 sequencing of an
enriched library was used to construct genomic libraries
highly enriched for microsatellite loci for Leptonycteris
yerbabuenae. Twenty-four polymorphic microsatellites
were developed and tested as markers in the target species.
We probed ascertainment bias in 5 different glossophagines
(L. nivalis, Glossophaga leachii, G. soricina, Anoura geoff-
royi, and Choeronycteris mexicana), indicating their potential
utility for suitable studies of population genetics and other
related analyses. Levels of expected heterozygosity were
medium–low for all markers (mean HE = 0.147, range
0.008–0.46).

Leptonycteris yerbabuenae is a bat restricted to the tropical
and dry areas from south US to Central America. This bat
species is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN and critically
vulnerable in some states of US and Mexico. This bat
migrates following the flowering season of nectaring plants
of the xeric habitats. One individual may visit as many as
100 flowers per night and are specialist pollinators of night
flowering plants. A previous set of microsatellite loci was
recently developed for the target species (Ramırez et al.
2011). Here we present a new set of microsatellite loci
specially developed for Leptonycteris yerbabuenae by using
a 454 sequencing protocol.
We collected tissue samples from two vouchered spe-
cies of L. yerbabuenae. Wing tissue was kept in alcohol
(96%) until DNA extraction following the Universal Salt-
Extraction Protocol (Aljanabi and Martınez 1997). DNA
was then serially enriched twice for microsatellites using 3
probe mixes following Glenn and Schable (2005) with the
changes described in Lance et al. (2010). There were two
primary changes to the Glenn and Schable (2005) protocol.
First, a different linker was used (SimpleX-3 Forward 50-AAAA CGTGCTGCGGAACT-30 and SimpleX-3 Reverse
50-pAGTTCCGCAGCACG-30). Second, the enriched
libraries were sequenced on a 454 using titanium chemistry
following standard Roche 454 library protocols (454 Life
Sciences, a Roche company, Branford CT). All methods
for sequencing, microsatellite identification, and primer
design, are as described in Faircloth (2008) and Lance et al.
(2010) with the exception that the universal CAG tag was
not used.
We recovered 118 unique loci (61 di, 4 tri, and 53 tet-
ranucleotide), but only 24 were chosen for polymerase
chain reaction (PCR) trials. We directly labelled forward
primers (FAM or HEX) for each of the chosen loci. PCR
reactions were performed in a 15 lL volume containing
30 ng of DNA, 0.3 mM of dNTP’s, 0.5 lM of each primer,
19 Taq buffer (2.0 lM of MgCl2, 10 mM of Tris–HCl,
50 mM of KCl), 2.59 of BSA, and 1.0 U of FlexiTaq
polymerase (PROMEGA). PCR cycling conditions were as
follows: initial denaturation at 94�C for 10 min, followed
by 35 cycles of 92�C for 1 min, gradient temperature for

1 min (range from 49 to 60�C), and 72�C for 60 s, and
ending with 72�C for 1 min. Exact annealing temperatures
for each primer are given of Table 1. We visualized by
electrophoresis on 1.5% agarose gel the expected size of
the PCR product. Markers were tested for amplification
success, polymorphism and specificity in 14 individuals of
L. yerbabuenae from distinct locations.
The results of the microsatellite profiles were examined
using GENEMAPPER (Applied Biosystems) and peaks
were scored by hand. We estimated the proportion of
polymorphic loci and the average of number of alleles per
locus by using the GDA software (Lewis and Zaykin
2001), and the observed (HO) and the expected heterozy-
gosity (HE) using POPGENE (Yeh and Boyle 1997), we
also calculated linkage disequilibrium and Hardy–Wein-
berg proportions. MICROCHECKER was used to screen
null alleles in each loci (van Oosterhout et al. 2004).
All 24 loci were polymorphic for L. yerbabuenae, with
an average of 10.12 alleles per locus (range 6–12 alleles
per locus). The high polymorphism observed is likely
due the loci test in 16 individuals from different parts of
its distributional range. Our results suggest that these
markers would be useful for population genetic studies on
L. yerbabuenae, specially conducted on large spatial scales.
Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium or linkage disequilibrium
was not detected by using POPGENE software. Levels of
expected heterozygosity were medium–low for all markers
(mean HE = 0.147, range 0.008–0.46), and mean for
observed heterozygosity was HO = 0.20. MICROCHE-
KER detected significance evidence of null alleles at locus
Lepy06, but we could not find evidence of mistakes on the
scoring or large allele dropout. Large scale population
genetic studies and landscape studies are necessary for this
migrate bat species to assess the influence of the traveling
behavior on the local genetic structure of its populations in
the wild.
Ascertainment bias was tested in 5 different glosso-
phagines (L. nivalis, Glossophaga leachii, G. soricina,
Anoura geoffroyi, and Choeronycteris mexicana) related
to L. yerbabuenae, to probe wherever polymorphic loci
isolated from the source species are less variable in close
related species (Hogan et al. 2009). A positive control
containing DNA from L. yerbabuenae was added to each
PCR reaction. Almost all of the tested loci were very
similar in size and some of them showed specific mono-
morphisms. Ascertainment bias resulted in a better

Our markers can be suitable for population genetics studies
