We developed four microsatellite DNA loci to test for multiple paternity of black rockfish, Sebastes inermis, from the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. All loci showed a high degree of polymorphism (number of alleles per locus = 10 to 14, expected heterozygosity = 0.80) and discriminating power (probability of identity index = 3.71 x 10E-6, exclusion probability = 0.999) in unrelated wild specimens (n = 32). Genotypic assignment of five dams (109-220 mm in total length) and 50 embryos from each dam (n = 50) indicated that four dams were mated with a single sire. Only for one dam and three of her embryos we could not exclude multiple paternity.
