Abstract: | Ten chloroplast microsatellite markers were developed from Japanese plum (Prunus salicina) based on nucleotide sequences of c. 4300 bp from six chloroplast regions. Out of 10 microsatellites, seven markers contained mononucleotide repeats. Almost all microsatellites displayed discrete amplified fragments for 17 species in Prunus. The microsatellites generated 46 different fragment types and differentiated all used species. Polymorphism was also observed within species for all microsatellites. |
