Nineteen loci amplified consistently well, with polymorphisms ranging from two to nine alleles and observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.15 to 0.85.enLutraOtterBiologyMicrosatelliteLoss of heterozygosityZoologyAlleleEcologyCross‐species characterisation of polymorphic microsatellite loci in the giant otter (<i>Pteronura brasiliensis</i>)article
