Abstract
We isolated and characterized seven microsatellite markers in Tetranychus kanzawai (Acari: Tetranychidae). We also examined the conformity of the isolated markers to Mendelian laws and analyzed linkage among the microsatellite loci. All microsatellite markers fit expected 1:1 disomic segregation ratio and hence were inherited in a Mendelian manner. Significant pairwise linkage was detected in three pairs of microsatellite loci. These isolated microsatellite markers may become a powerful tool for the study of behavioral ecology, population genetics, and genome mapping of T. kanzawai.
