Descrição: Background Masked Bobwhite ( Colinus virginianus ridgwayi ) is a critically-endangered New World quail species endemic to Sonoran Desert grasslands of North America. It suffered severe population declines during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with its persistence now reliant upon a captive breeding program that requires careful genetic management to maintain extant genetic diversity. Although nuclear microsatellite DNA markers existed for the closely related Northern Bobwhite ( C. virginianus ), none were available for Masked Bobwhite to inform necessary management decisions. Methods and results Paired-end Illumina © sequencing was conducted to screen the Masked Bobwhite genome for microsatellite loci. We identified 18 loci exhibiting high polymorphism and limited deviations from genetic equilibrium expectations. These loci were amplified in 78 individuals. Familial relationships were reconstructed via sibship methods and compared to manually-curated pedigree data. Thirteen of fifteen full-sibling groups in the pedigree were exactly reconstructed (86.6%). Three other full-sibling groups partially matched pedigree relationships with high statistical confidence, and likely represented pedigree inaccuracies. Four additional full-sibling pairs were identified with low statistical confidence and likely resulted from analytical artifacts. Conclusions The novel microsatellite loci accurately reconstructed parent–offspring and sibling relationships. These loci will be useful for guiding genetic management decisions and identifying pedigree inaccuracies in the captive breeding program.
