Resumo
Leporinus friderici is a migratory neotropical fish with elevated ecological and economic importance in Brazil. Microsatellite markers are highly important in population genetic studies, management, and conservation programs; however, no markers are available for this species. In this study, seven microsatellite loci, previously developed for Megaleporinus obtusidens, were successfully cross-amplified in L. friderici. Among these loci, five presented moderate to high genetic variability levels, with four to seven alleles per loci and expected heterozygosities varying from ≥ 0.574 to 1.000. These markers represent a valuable tool for the future management and ecological studies involving this species and group of neotropical fishes.
