Microsatellite marker is one of the frequently used molecular markers. It has been used in the genotype identification, pedigree analysis and estimation of genetic distance.
微卫星是近几年来应用较多的一种分子标记，可有效地进行基因鉴定与系谱分析，并可估算群体间的遗传距离。

The microsatellitemarkers produced by this study will be of benefit to further studies on the evolutionary genetics and provide useful tools for marker assisted selection breeding or genetic map.
The 9 microsatellitemarkers on chromosomes 1 were used to construct a linkage map of Liangshan semi-wool sheep with a 387 members half-sib pedigrees after paternity testing.
