行军蚁 Eciton burchellii 是中美洲和南美洲雨林中的游牧掠食者。详细的工作记录了该物种的生态、行为和生活史的许多方面。然而，对群体内部相关性结构的详细研究需要开发遗传工具。在这里，我们展示了 8 个微卫星标记，具有 9 到 25 个等位基因。对于每个基因座，观察到的杂合性与预期杂合性之间非常一致。
The army ant Eciton burchellii is a nomadic predator in the rain forests of Central and South America. Detailed work has documented many aspects of this species' ecology, behaviour and life history. However, a detailed investigation into within colony relatedness structure requires the development of genetic tools. Here we present eight microsatellite markers with between nine and 25 alleles. For each loci there is close agreement between observed and expected heterozygosity.
