Microsatellite loci were developed for the biomass C4 grass, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, and proved to be suitable markers for population genetic studies and germplasm management of this species. •
Twenty-three polymorphic microsatellite loci were identified from an enriched genomic library of M. sacchariflorus. The polymorphism was assessed in 50 individuals from two populations in China. The number of alleles per locus varied from two to 18, with a mean of 8.13. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.2 to 1.0 and from 0.198 to 0.898, respectively. •
These new markers will be useful for further investigation of genetic diversity and population genetic structure as well as molecular breeding of Miscanthus species.
开发了用于生物质 C4 草芒属植物的微卫星位点,这些位点被证明是该物种种群遗传研究和种质管理的合适标记。
从芒属植物的富集基因组文库中鉴定出 23 个多态性微卫星位点。在中国的两个种群的 50 个个体中评估了多态性。每个位点的等位基因数从 2 到 18 不等,平均值为 8.13。观察到的和预期的杂合度分别在 0.2 到 1.0 和 0.198 到 0.898 之间。
这些新标记将有助于进一步研究芒属物种的遗传多样性和种群遗传结构,以及分子育种。
