| Abstract: | Echinops setifer is an endangered grassland plant species in Japan. We isolated and characterized nine microsatellite loci in this species. The number of alleles ranged from 3 to 7 and expected heterozygosities from 0.108 to 0.761. These markers described here will be useful for investigating the genetic diversity, genetic structure and gene flow, and planning for conservation of E. setifer. |
