| Abstract: | In this study, we isolated and characterized 12 microsatellite loci for Pinellia ternata. Polymorphism of these 12 loci was assessed in 46 individuals collected from two wild populations. All the loci were polymorphic with four to 13 alleles per locus and the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.312 to 0.680 and from 0.506 to 0.734, respectively. None of the loci showed significant deviation from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (P < 0.05). No significant linkage disequilibrium was observed between pairs of studied loci. In addition, most markers amplified successfully in three closely related taxa that are Pinellia cordata, P. peltata and P. pedatisecta. These microsatellite markers could provide a useful tool for genetic structure studies of the Pinellia species. |
