Abstract: | Ginkgo biloba L. (Ginkgoaceae), a famous and widely cultivated plant, is often referred to as a living fossil. Here we isolated and characterized
11 polymorphic microsatellite loci from G. biloba using a modified biotin-capture method. These loci showed high levels of allelic diversity, alleles sizes ranged from 4 to
16 per locus with polymorphism information content ranging from 0.432 to 0.909 (average = 0.752). The observed and expected
heterozygosities ranged from 0.208 to 0.708 (average = 0.484) and from 0.501 to 0.934 (average = 0.795), respectively. These
microsatellite markers can be used as genetic markers for further studies on genetic diversity, genetic structure and the
gene flow among populations of this species. |
