Abstract
Five microsatellite markers were developed via pyrosequencing for the blesbok (Damaliscus pygargus phillipsi). These microsatellite loci displayed three to four alleles with an expected heterozygosity range between 0.339 – 0.858 and an observed heterozygosity between 0.348 – 0.913. The high level of polymorphisms observed in the microsatellite markers indicates that they can be used to strongly improve our knowledge of the genetic structure and relatedness of these birds.
