Microsatellite primers were isolated from the microendemic and threatened species Coccoloba cereifera, a shrub known only from a small region in the Serra do Cipó, Brazil. Thirteen primer pairs amplifying perfect and imperfect microsatellite regions were tested in 40 individuals from the one known occurrence of the species. Number of alleles ranged from two to six and levels of observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.21 to 0.95. These markers will be useful for the analysis of questions concerning population genetic structure and will assist in providing information for future conservation management programmes.
微卫星引物是从微地方性和受威胁物种 Coccoloba cereifera 中分离出来的，这是一种仅在巴西 Serra do Cipó 地区的一个小区域发现的灌木。在已知该物种的一个种群中 40 个个体中，测试了 13 对扩增完美和不完美微卫星区域的引物。等位基因数从 2 到 6 不等，观察到的杂合度水平从 0.21 到 0.95 不等。这些标记将有助于分析有关种群遗传结构的问题，并为未来的保护管理计划提供信息。
