Didemnum vexillum low coverage shotgun genome sequencing using 454 pyrosequencing’
454 pyrosequencing reads were used to isolate microsatellites in the global marine ascidian invader, Didemnum vexillum. This method allows simple and cost-effective isolation of new markers from organisms without existing genomic information. These markers will greatly facilitate research required to develop control and mitigation strategies for D. vexillum.
