Microsatellite loci for the fungus Ascosphaera apis: cause of honey bee chalkbrood disease.

Stephen A Rehner1, Jay D Evans.   

Abstract

The fungus Ascosphaera apis is a worldwide fungal pathogen of honey bees. To provide tools for understanding the dispersal history of this pathogen, strain differences in virulence, and host-pathogen interactions, we used the draft genome assembly of A. apis to develop microsatellite loci for this species. We present testing results for 25 scorable loci revealing two to eight alleles per locus in a survey of Maryland isolates of this fungus.
