- PCR success was coded using a variable that took a value of 1 for success and 0 for failure. The primer melting temperature (Tm) was summed for both primers in a pair. The R functions called when estimating PCR success were: glm(formula = PCR.success ~ Pipeline + Primer.location + Sum.of.primer.Tm + Expected.PCR.product.size, family = binomial). The level of polymorphism was expressed in terms of number of alleles per locus (Na) and was analyzed using the following function calls in R: glm(formula = Na ~ Pipeline + SSR.location + Maximum.No..of.SSR.repeats + SSR.motif, family = poisson). SSR motif corresponded to the number of bases in the SSR repeat unit; di-, tri-, tetra-, hexa-, and penta-SSRs were coded as 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively.
